It's a beautiful morning here on the Knolltop. The sun is out and it's very cool. But it's promising to be a great day.

I just got back from a trip to Texas and witnessed the opposite of what you see on any media source. I saw vast farm fields full of fertile soil getting ready to grow cotton, rice, corn and beans. Vibrant farm towns were still in existence with pick-up trucks parked outside of local diners packed full on a Saturday night. I drove thru Clear Fork Coffee Company in Albany, Texas for a great cup of coffee and a Texas Cheater that hit the spot. Kind people were the trend not the exception. I missed the trash can wi...
