Seen and Not Heard

Children should be seen and not heard. Silence is a woman's best garment. Aren't proverbs great? But I'm done with being quiet.

Tales from the County: It Wasn't True

Around here, we like to send our old people to live in a nice little town called Green Valley. Because there are a lot of elderly people there, it does have it's own unique issues...

During my defensive driving class, the instructor shared with us the story he had heard about a little old lady in Green Valley. Her vision was so bad, that whenever she approached a traffic light, she would come to a complete stop, and pull out binoculars to check the color of the light, so she would know if she could continue through or not. He did not believe this story, and decided to check it out.

He was correct, the little old lady had not been using binoculars to check on the traffic lights... They were opera glasses.
