Mr. Meadow Lark is back
And a grand morning it is on this next to the last day of February 2010.
Things are picking up around here. Mr. Loud-mouth golden throat Meadow Lark is atop the power pole heralding to the neighborhood he is back and has taken up residence.
This morning, as the sun announced with a brilliant gong the dawning of a new day. Mr. Meadow Lark tapped on my bedroom window. He presented a list of demands. He informed me the economy is in shambles and he will not have the money to pay the high rent for the power pole apartment he paid last spring, summer and fall. We reached and agreement. He will pay half what he paid last year.
Number 2 on his list of demaneds is General Hawk will not be allowed within a half mile of the power pole. I told him I’d have to take that up with General Hawk at a differet date.
Number 3 on the list is I provide free 100% health insurance for him and his entire family. All old members of his family will be included. We agreed. We couldn’t reach an agreement on the insurance request but agreed to meet later next week to continue the discussion.
Yes, spring is on its way to southeastern Colorado

Oh Mr. George,
It is obvious that Mother Nature has given you the Spring bug, albeit a little early. Is Mr. Meadowlark back in town already?
Glad to see you up on your site. Keep it comin’, shy guy.

Last week in a blinding snow storm, Mr. Meadow Lark landed on my windowsill worried sick about “Ole Ori” and the Coyote Brothers. He said he’d flown over the swamplands of the Arkansas Valley where Jim wasn’t there to stop the water from running any more and Ole Ori seemed more intent on caging chickens than chopping wood, and the whole place looked deserted. He said, “Sweet Patsy isn’t there and I’m worried.”
I told him to get back down there and take his place on that telephone pole to protect his territory. He said he’d take along a snow storm and off he went…
I hope you’re all getting enough snow in this snow storm.
Blessings from the Big City.
