More Views Around The Burg

As some of you know, I post about the area I live in, known fondly as The Burg.  Check out some of my other explorations.

We moved here the end of July, 2014.  Small town, mid-west USA.  The Heartland of America.  I love small towns.  But I do like a little convenience.  The Burg is great is that way.  We even have a University here (UCM) and that makes for a touch of youth.

While driving out in the surrounding countryside of this area, we came across the town of Chilhowee, Missouri.  Talk about small town.

Yes, Population 329

I’m sure the people in Chilhowee are wonderful people.  The mid-west is good that way.  But I do get sad when I see buildings empty – I imagine better times. Hopefully it’s a happy town.  The school there looks awesome and speaks of pride and accomplishment.

Hats off to Chilhowee!

Enjoy!

Dear Prudence

Dear Prudence,

The sun is up and the sky is blue in the Heartland today.  Finally.  Come out to play and look around.

I think most people I know like The Beatles.  I was in the sixth grade when these wonderfully life changing four showed up on the Ed Sullivan Show.  Be still my heart.

Know what I like the best?  Their songs are still loved and enjoyed by all generations.  They do not get old.  They lessen the generation gap.  Isn’t that awesome?

 

 

Enjoy!

Sincerely yours,

cate b – rocker at heart and for always!
