Jeff, congratulations! Your award is well deserved. Thanks for everything you do. :-)
I'm unable to be around much lately. I miss you all.
Thank you seems so inadequate.....but thank you Jim Robinson!! The Republic lives!
Stay well - Stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown

Patriot is the appropriate word here.
May I be so fortunate to meet both of you one day. (In person)

Thanks to you for the first alert of the attempted Rural Cleansing of the Kalmath Basin Farmers and Ranchers and their families. Thanks for your patient education of Freepers like me who had no idea about the water, who paid for and the history of this water and the farmers/ranchers.
The turning point was the small pipe put in by the locals and Jeff on that dark 4th of July weekend, when all appeared be lost. Something happened and the process to reverse the Enviro Nazis Rural cleansing started.
Thanks to Jim Robinson for allowing us to make this a page one event/situation on Free Republic. Thanks to Jeff and you for being there for the rest of us!
I was trying to explain all of this to a younger conservative friend on the fringes of understanding it. He asked why it was so important.
I told him that this was like the first bombing raid over Tokyo in the early dark days of WWII. The actual damage done to the enemy was not that great, but it showed America that the enemy could be hurt and it was our first and needed victory.
The farmers and ranchers in the Klamath Basin not being rurally cleansed and having water this year is our first and needed victory against the enviral nazis! It shows us that they can be beaten.
John, this ping is for you to please put this thread on your ping list.
Congrats to the man in the Stetson
Thanks for this article AuntB. You're the best.
I will say this. I will never forget those evenings at Jarbidge and at Klamath. Particularly the 1st one at Klamath.
I knew in my soul that the federal officers would be back with a vengence after the two were run off ... indeed their suburbans were driving by and watching us all night. Despite the long drive, I stayed up all night trying to convince those good people to wake more people up and get them there before morning and prepare as best I could for what was coming. We didn't know how it would turn out, and it certainly could have been grim. I thank God in Heaven that it has turned out thus far as it did.
It wasn't the good Lord's will I suppose to have more people there to face those officers when they came, and it worked out for the best anyway. When those 50+ officers with their weapons took those headgates back, it aroused the people even more and led to the events we are experiencing now.
Meeting all of those people, including yourself and your husband (not to mention washington_Minuteman, nunya bidness, B4Ranch, Phil V. 68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub, farmfriend, Rocky, Bill, Jim, Barron, Barbara, and so many others who answered the call, too numerous to name).
Piping that water around the feds the next day, taking to some of the officers at the fence, having the donkey and the goats invade the federal "compound", standing guard duty at the pump up by the lake at night, the Klamath Calvary ride, seeing Barron go over the fence followed by so many more, helping with the relief convoy and the stop one of them made in Boise, the big Rally in August, posting live reports to FR over the cell phone, having SO many folks on FR who could not be there rise to the occassion and spread the word all over this nation ... no, it was an experience that almost had to be lived to truly appreciate the experience.
Just the same, I am glad I was given the words to record it all in an effort to passs it on at the site:
The Stand at Klamath Falls - The Full Account
Including all of those pictures taken by my son, Jared, who has been my faithful saddle partner throughout The March for Liberty, The 50 Million Round march, Jarbidge and Klamath.
By the way, I updated the site with my feelings regarding the events of last Friday, march 29th, when they opened the headgates. I included the report from the Elko Free Daily Press.
So, thank you for the kind words AuntB you dear woman. Thank you more for being there yourself at Jarbidge and Klamath along with so many others who are truly the ones deserving of recognition. You are the tru inspriations and I am humbled and proud at the same time to know you and yours. I just came over from Emmett to help some friends.
You tell that cantancerous old hubby of yours howdy for me.
Well, though I really try and just do what I know is right, and try and avoid any lime light ... I've also never been accused of being found short for words. Now, I've gone on way too long here.
God bless and stay well.
