My Grandmother's maiden name was Soule and I had heard the story before, but to actually see it was pretty amazing. She's been gone for several years, but I've got the pictures and the story. I'm sure she's proud I followed through.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13861840514170444510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961111.post-61486061009543314852010-11-17T19:17:18.614-06:002010-11-17T19:17:18.614-06:00Tim: Tuesday I was in western Iowa and eastern Neb...Tim: Tuesday I was in western Iowa and eastern Nebraska on the way home.

Nice race track over in Dodge if its still running. Were you by chance on I-70 yesterday heading eastbound through Indiana or Ohio? I saw one of those tank haulers out of Kansas running through there yesterday. Nobody answered my C.B. call though. Hell I never have mine on anymore.Timhttp://lifeontheroad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961111.post-65389916225172713882010-11-15T11:11:54.374-06:002010-11-15T11:11:54.374-06:00The Daley's hadn't gotten to ban firearms ...The Daley's hadn't gotten to ban firearms from the folks?

Here in Sonoma, the Sons of the Golden West proudly placed a plaque on one of the old hotels (dating from 1840) to note that the notorious bandit Joaquin Murrieta stayed there. Except that Murrieta is -- according to most historians -- a complete fabrication. An amalgam of more than a dozen bandits who were active at the time, but nevertheless, the inspiration for Zorro. So that's akin to having a plaque in your town saying the Easter Bunny or Long John Silver or Huck Finn lived there.Lisa Paulhttp://leftcoastcowboys.comnoreply@blogger.com
