when you take pics with a digital camera, set the resolution...smalle r, on my camera, it says, for web,site...etc..that way you can post them on here, either that,or try one at a time....

Mart, I couldn't help but laugh that Wullie says you live happen to live in "lost of miles in nowhere places". 

He needs to visit Texas someday and see the vast expanse!  :)

With Texas being roughly 7 times bigger than Scotland....i just assumed ..that...being in the Boonies there, would be like...4 days from anyplace..here,..and maybe you got a visit from a Provisions Van ,once a week,....like what used to happen up in the North of Scotland....in the 1950,s.... ;D

Best not tell him I only get to 'town' about four times a year.........and that's to get dog food and whatever else I might need for the next however many months. He'll be checking the map to see how deep into the boonies I actually do live :D
