Shoot XII - "Stowe, VT II"

Were you thinking Texas? I figured the rodeo clue might have been the give-away. Or, even the ranch larger than Little Rhody? For me, it was Buddy Holly! Its most popular nickname is, the Lone Star State. Also, thinking big with Texas were Carol, Elaine, Mike Di, Milt, Peyton, Doris, and Joani!

"Nostalgia"

Still on Shoot Twelve, Vermont. A side trip to the ever-popular and quaint town of Woodstock found us looking through its general store. Around a corner near the rear of the store was this glass-enclosed case. What caught my eye was the variety of items they had and the condition of the packaging. Even though I had pleaded and groveled with the store manager to open the case doors, it didn't work. Shooting through the glass doors is becoming one of my strengths of late. 

Thought for the week. . .

Found these most interesting outlooks on life:

A bus is a vehicle that runs twice as fast when you are after it 

as when you are in it.
