40 Years Ago Today - Climbing Telephone Poles

40 years ago today at this hour I was climbing telephone poles in Batesville, Arkansas and thinking about marrying Mary that night. The boss let me off at 3:00 p.m. so I could drive to Little Rock to get married.

So far today we are just sitting around home wondering how to celebrate our 40th wedding aniversary. I replaced Missouri's First Geocache a while ago. It was stolen last week.

We're just sitting around looking at pictures we took on last weeks' caching trip to the Flint Hills of Kansas. Here are a few:
The Lower Fox Creek One Room School House near Cottonwood Falls, Kansas. It looks kind of lonsome just sitting out there in the prairie all by itself. I can't help but think about the kids walking several miles to attend the school here.
We were very lucky. We arrived at the school house just as the National Park Ranger showed up to check on the building. He allowed us to go inside and take a few photos.




A few wild flowers along the way.

Tonight we went out to Holahans for diner. Great meal and we enjoyed ourselves. I had salmon and Mary ahd a full rack of baby back ribs.
