BIG MAMMA

YEARS AGO I LOVED RIDING THOSE BIKES ESPECIALLY HARLEY DAVIDSON. I EVEN HAVE A NICE SOUVENEER FROM THOSE DAYS A SCAR ON MY LEG FROM A HARLEY DAVIDSON. BUT THIS WAS WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND HAD NO FEAR.

I LOVE FLOWERS

I TOOK THESE PICTURES IN CALIFORNIA. THIS IS WHAT MY HOME IN KY COULD LOOK LIKE YEAR ROUND.

MY FAVORITE TREE THE CREPE MYRTLE

THE FIRST CRAPE MYRTLE I EVER SAW WAS IN MOBILE ALABAMA. I KEEP ASKING PEOPLE ABOUT THIS TREE NO ONE KNEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT AND FINALLY A LADY FROM HOME HEARD ME AND TOLD ME WHAT THEY WERE. HER SISTER LIVED IN MOBILE AND HAD A YARD FULL. YOU CAN HAVE THESE IN KENTUCKY BUT THEY DON'T GROW LIKE THEY DO IN THE SOUTH.

DONNIE AND JOAN'S TRIP TO ALASKA

THIS WAS A DREAM COME TRUE TO GET A LOAD TO ALASKA. OUR LOAD STARTED IN IOWA WHERE WE PICKED THE LOAD UP GOING TO VALDEZ ALASKA. WE CROSS CANADIAN CUSTOMS AT SEATTLE WASHINGTON THEN OU JOURNEY BEGAN. CROSSING BRITISH COLUMBIA AND THEN THE YUKON TERRITORY INTO ALASKA. MOST BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY FROM BRITISH COLUMBIA TO ALASKA THAT YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE. SCENERY WAS GEORGEOUS BUT ALL THE WILDLIFE THAT WE SAW. WE SAW BUFFALO, BLACK BEAR, GRIZZLY BEAR, MOOSE, ANTELOPE, LONGHORN SHEEP MOUNTAIN GOATS AND REINDEERS. THEY WERE RIGHT IN THE ROAD CLOSE TO US MOST AMAZING. BEAUTIFUL WATERFALLS AND GLACERIES. WHEN WE CROSSED US CUSTOMS THE YOUNG LADY SAID TO US WELCOME HOME AND IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. I WAS RAISD IN SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY AND THE ROADS IN KY WERE LIKE SUPER HIGHWAYS COMPARED TO THE ROADS IN ALASKA. WHEN THEY SAY TWO LANE ROAD THEY WERE NOT KIDDING. WE WERE THERE IN JUNE AND AFTER WINTER FROM THE ROADS ARE BLACKTOP, GRAVEL, DIRT, AND EVEN MUD. IF YOU EVER GET A CHANCE TO DO THIS YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT. OH ALSOWE SAW THE ALASKIAN PIPELINE.
