The Grand Teton National Forest was a major reason we decided to take a road trip to the West. We were primed for its beauty. We lodged the night before near the Grand Teton’s. Upon waking the next morning the Teton’s were totally blacked out by heavy hoary clouds. But the storm passed in a few more hours.
The sky lightened after the storm.
Yea, you can say I’m mellow.
One of my other traits is that I am your good bedfellow.
Be careful and not fall. It’s a long way down and pretty rocky once you hit bottom. And if the wind picks up………you are toast.
“The Cambodian village of Kdep Tmar, deep in the northwest forests near the Thai border, lies within a minefield. Planted by numerous belligerent factions during Cambodia’s three decades of war, the mines are in the fields behind the houses, along the rutted track that is the only access to the village and in the forest where the villagers gather wood.
“Life is bad here,” says Pou Venh, father of three, a sad-faced man whose body is emaciated by malaria. “There is no land for growing rice, no food, mines everywhere. The school has no furniture.” He and his wife try to keep their children from wandering too far, but they don’t even know if the patch of ground around their small wooden shack is safe. Two months ago a pregnant woman was killed by a mine as she walked to the outdoor latrine 20 yds. behind her hut.”

Sometimes life can be a struggle

I’ve developed my own ideology
For me it would be a puzzle
She told me her name was Ruby.
“No problemo with Custom Duty”, she said.
She had that little shop in Panama.
It was the last thing I ever saw.
These Sumo wrestlers asked me to a match. I cried Uncle before the start of round one.
I wanted to play.
Just a little fun.
Tug of war and I won.
To destroy your carpet was never my intent.
