Good Sunday morning to ya!

The Legion in our small town has a breakfast one Sunday a month.  Its sausage, ham, eggs, pancakes, toast, sausage gravy and biscuits, and its all good.  All you can eat for $5.00.

But you know what the best part about it is?  **QUE MUSIC FROM THE SHOW "CHEERS"**  Its where everyone knows your name.  And they're (almost) glad you came.

In a small town like ours, EVERYONE knows your name.  And they know your business.  And if they don't know your business, they kinda guess at it.  I have heard that all small towns are like that.

There are good parts too: Your kids have eyes watching them while they grow up and out.  The handshakes and hugs my son got today when he was home for the weekend and went down to eat with us, was heartwarming.   He got to meet up with an old friend that played baseball with him as they were growing up.  Said friend has served in Iraq and Afghanistan and we are glad he is now home for good. We found out that his little brother is on his way home from serving in Okinawa. He played ball with our younger son.

I get to see the lady that used to work with me, who stopped by to have breakfast on the way to church.  She thanked me for showing my art on Facebook.  I had been thinking of not posting it anymore, but now I guess I will continue.  God bless her, she is over 80 and still going strong!

Our cousins were also on their way to church, good to lay eyes on them.  Although we see them here and there, and not just this once a month, they are dealing with some life issues too.


A friend we sat with gave Hubs a tip on a possible job.  A couple of our fire fighter friends were there too. One of them has three beautiful little girls who light up a room.

We caught up on a friend that has some health issues.  He will be ok if he is careful.

There are a lot of things to be thankful for.  Just one breakfast outing shows just how much.  Yes, its so much more than an All You Can Eat Breakfast for $5,00.  Its living in a small town.
