Not Lonesome Too Long

I bought a cub last week from J. C. Potter's nephew but was talked out of it after having it only a day.  So I drove back to the Cherokee Nation and bought this one from an 84 year old tobacco farmer.  I think I will restore it and don't think I will be talked out of it as quickly as that last one.  This one is a '53 model and has not been started since 2001 when Ernie moved from Kentucky to OK.  Mrs. Ernie cried when I pulled away with it.  It has lots of equipment and I am so proud of it.  Not lonesome anymore!  Do you think I will get it running this week, Wayne Hawkins?

Style Of Treeing

Surround and conquer!  Roxy trees by running around and around the tree occasionally moving in toward the tree.  Notice Buster mostly stands on the tree.  It is all about their style of treeing.  I had a little Feist once that treed just like Roxy.  Her name was Cherokee Circles and she was an awesome little Feist squirrel dog.  I hope Zack Kraft appreciates Roxy's style as I love it!

Keep Out

This sign is on a farm in Carroll County, AR.  I guess it did not keep the trees away.

Happy Birthday, Roscoe

Roscoe, Happy Birthday!
You still are a handsome as when you 
were just a puppy on Galla Creek!
Here is Roscoe's friend Hannah's email about his big day!
Today Roscoe turned 2 years old! We had a big day full of the outdoors! We treed a bunch of squirrels while we were celebrating his birthday! Hannah Jester

Boone County

My niece took this picture just outside her back door.  Deer are not even very leery of humans these days. Glad my dogs run them out of the yard and garden.  They are huge pests!
