The fire season in the west is in full swing and it looks like California is a fire storm, so many fires and the winds keep the firefighters on the run. I would not want to live in a place that had fires like that and I am sure no one wants to live any place that has natural disasters like fires, floods or hurricanes. We have a lot of twisters here and they can be very dangerous and they can destroy entire towns that lay in their path. We have had some minor floods over the years but it is not an issue most of the time. I am so very glad that we do not have earth quakes that is the worst as far as I am concerned.
Football
Football is very important to this small town and has been that way as long as I can remember. The town shuts down every Friday and if it is an away game they travel to the game and if it is a home game they all and I mean all, make their way to the stadium that is named for the old football coach that had already retired when I was in High School. Earl Kilmer was the principal of the high school when I was going to high school, he had already retired as football coach and that was a very long time ago for sure. I work at the gate of the football and basketball games as a second job and it keeps me in contact with the people coming to the games. Go Tigers!
Welcome to the bad lands
Hello and welcome to my world, it is kind of boring and not a lot of fun, at times anyway. I live in the flat lands of Western Oklahoma and I am a teachers aid at the grade school in our town. I have lived here all of my life and I guess I will be here until the day I die. So join me and maybe you can help me have some fun in this small town on the edge of the earth.
