Long day, big day tomorrow, too. So, I'm raiding the email inbox. As you listen to this, it will seem that Red makes a couple mistakes. He doesn't. He explains at the end.
Thanks Jeffro. Red played at our county fair back in the 70's. He showed up a day early so he'd have a chance to walk around town and get acquainted with people, something he apparently did wherever he had a show.
I've lived here on The Poor Farm most of my life. Located in western Kansas, where the wind blows - supposedly the Dodge City weather station at the airport has the highest average wind speed in the CONUS. It would be the "sticks" out here if there were any trees, but I like it. I really like the spring - when it is calm, and the smell of the fresh wheat and other plants fill the air with a unique "green" smell. My real love is the fall, when the air is cooling and calm, when you breath the air it is like a drink of cool water. Speaking of cool water, my well produces some mighty good tasting stuff. It is hard water for sure - all the faucets have lime on them, but I'll take it over soft mossy smelling reservoir water from the city any day.

THANK YOU FOR THIS, JEFFRO!
Red Skelton just had that certain way to get into our hearts, didn't he?
