It was not a very good picture. The second one with the bunny ears provided by Joe was better. My sweet friends Joe & Cheryl from down in the mountains of Southern WV drove 2 1/2 hrs to surprise me at my church’s Christmas dinner which turned out to also be a surprise birthday dinner. Joe brought me a gift that he had painted. When he was staying with us a few weeks ago as he held revival at my churches he was questioning me about a picture I had on the wall. It’s a picture of my grandfather’s barn and a huge Oak tree. I told him that the picture was precious to me, not only because it was my grandparent’s barn, but the tree was the one I climbed, to the first large limb, when I was 18 months old. He took a picture of the picture. The gift he brought me was that scene painted on a turkey feather. I need to get son to take a picture of it so I can post it. Needless to say it was a great birthday party complete with lots of cake.
Fell back to sleep. But it appears that the answer to your question is just below the question. So proud of you. Dream big!
Dept of agriculture announcement in IOWA ?
What a special gift. Would love to see it!
Up letting dogs in, and putting another log on the fire. Should be good till dawn.
Glad you got to see parts of the speech. I got to watch it here with the Trump Train family for once and enjoyed it immensely.
Yes, he repeated several themes he has spoken about before - but there is always something “new” so he included having General Mattis speak who was brief and to the point. Then there was Diamond and Silk - who spoke before the President spoke.
All in all, a wonderful experience, especially sharing it here on FR.
What an inspiring request - President Trump is asking all Americans to dream big.........we hear you, President Trump, and we will follow!
Let me know which ones you want, and I’ll ship them to you. You can pay me thru paypal. Do it today before they sell out. Don’t you love that risotto spoon!!!!
Gov. Terry Branstad named Ambassador to China. Branstad has a 30 year relationship with Chinese officials. Cities in Iowa and China, have a “sister - state” relationship/exchange program based almost entirely on agricultural detente. [my words]
>>> Excerpt: Jason Miller, a spokesman for Trump’s presidential transition operation, confirmed the selection in a conference call with reporters on Wednesday. Branstad, a Republican, has accepted the offer, three people close to the matter said on condition of anonymity. <<<
More 3-D chess moves by the grandmaster himself. he he he

Yep, my name day was yesterday.
Have you been reading European news? Slowly they're catching on too. Very slowly...
I read very little news, but do have a sense that the globalist overlords are losing their mojo. Eastern Europe never took a shine to them in the first place. What will be interesting will be the "obedient ones" (Germans, Swedes) deciding that rebellion is the better course.
