Dell City is not going to be left behind in this twenty-first century.
There are two farmers, Robert Carpenter and James Rascoe,
incorporating the GPS (Global Position System) into running their
tractors. This system is controlled by satellite. I understand it really
makes straight rows in the sprinkler circles. If we happen to see a
tractor plowing as we are watching TV, it’s really o.k. Soon it will be
at the end of a row. Ha! Ha! Guys, you know I’m teasing. It’s really
great to see improvements in farming in the valley. Progress is good.
Robert said that soon they could be controlling the equipment from the
kitchen table. Now girls, what will you do with those guys home all
day? Let s do some thinking. They could cook dinner since they will
be in the kitchen anyway. The washer and dryer are just right there in
the laundry room, so after you have put the clothes in the washer and
dryer, “Honey, could you fold the clothes?” This would give you time
to watch another soap on the TV. Since he is going to be in the
kitchen, where will we have our coffee with the girls? We will
probably have to move to the sun room or we could meet at “Rosita’s”
or “Spanish Angel”.
You know ladies, are we going to move into the twenty-first century
and keep up with the men. I don’t know about you, but the hardest
thing for me is to vacuum, sweep or mop the floors. Have you seen this
new vacuum that runs all around the floor? It looked like some child’s
toy with batteries. We really should check it out and see how good it
works. I don’t believe it gets the comers but I bet it won’t be long
before they have something that will even do that. The other thing that
could use some improvement is cleaning the bathroom. For cleaning
in the bathroom, as far as I can see, we still have to put on our rubber
gloves and get our scrub brush. I’ve thought it would really be nice to
have a Mr. Clean, but that’s probably a pipe dream. Ha! Ha!
It s kind of fun to think about what you might like to do if you had less
house work. Like paint a picture with oils, watercolor, do charcoal or
sketching, read more books, quilt a quilt or all kinds of needlework.
Maybe write a book What are some of the things you really would like
to try? Really, what is keeping you from doing them? Everyday we put
it off is a day lost to a new thought, to doing something that would
bring a smile to your face and maybe joy to someone else. By sharing
our talents we make the world a more beautiful place.
Are you still working on your New Year’s resolution? Come on, keep
it whatever it was! If you get through this month, you can do it a day
at a time.
Sunday noon, Gene and I went to Rosita’s for a BLT, ham sandwich
and some french fries. We had just gotten our ice tea when we heard
this roar. Fourteen people came in to the cafe. They had arrived on
fourteen motorcycles. They were the “Wind Ryders” from El Paso.
They said it was cold when they left town and it was still cold but they
were dressed in their leathers and boots. Those bikes were shiny and
clean. Most of them were black, one blue, and four different colors of
yellow. Beautiful machines. They said every weekend they rode
somewhere in the area and had breakfast or lunch. Most of them were
middle aged with three or four younger onrs. All were guys except for
two women.
As we move into this new century, some things are really wonderful.
Look at cell phones and all the things they can do. New very small
cameras can take precise pictures. You probably haven’t realized that
people have your picture and you don’t even know it. This morning I
heard that crooks are getting your cell phone numbers from the
internet, finding out who you call and selling your number for all
kinds of reasons. So one thing for you to do is be very careful who you
give your cell number to.
When you think about it, our pictures are everywhere. They are taken
when you stop at red lights, in parking lots and when we’re in
convenience stores. So you had better watch out, you better be good,
or you will see that red light, hear that siren and end up riding in that
black and white. Ha! Ha!

Communities come in many different sizes, very
large to very small. I think everyone would say that we live
in a very small community. Besides being small we are
different in other ways that make it a unique place to live.
There are no numbers on the businesses or houses and UPS
can still fmd you. You never give directions by street names,
but by who lives close to where you are going. When you
have a problem a business will open on Sunday to help out.
You know who is in the store or cafe by looking at the
pickups and cars parked there. When you see a new pickup
in town (more than once), someone got a new one or there is
a new person in town. Some of the people live 40 miles out
of town but they are part of the community.
Another thing you could ask is, “Do you believe in
God?” Most people would wonder why you would ask such
a question, doesn’t everyone believe that? Even though
we re different than other communities, we remain similar in
that many people don’t believe in Christ, the Son of God.
God s word (the Bible) says we must believe in our heart
and confess with our mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, to be
saved. 1 pray that some day I can say that this community is
different because all of the people know Christ as their
savior.

Daughter: Blessings are a favor that
come from God above, to touch
our lives with gladness and fill our
hearts with love.
For I received His blessing and His
loving kindness too, the moment
that He gave me a daughter just
like you.
Will all my love,
Mom

I’m always wondering how the news media happens to get videos of
things that are in the process of happening. Very interesting! It is very
good that crooks are being caught in the act of stealing and killing.
‘Til next week.

CHIPS
3/4 stick butter or

1/2 teaspoon soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 can chopped can-
ned green cniles
3/4 cup canned tomato
jalapeno sauce
Soften margarine or butter
and add sifted flour, corn-
meal, soda, and salt. Work
mixture together until crum-
bly. Add chiles and cheese

If you like hot chile flavor,
