Dear list, Wasn't a contest, but if it were we would rate the one full of love and caring, and not something to ever forget, and I wish to honor this person. And our thanks again to the list for helping to make this trip and search the best ever and something to remember. Lots better then Triple A Club. Zella and Carl, Wichita Kansas My father and mother grew up and married in San Augustine. He would talk about the trees and lumber and the truck he drove hauling pulp wood. After moving to Dallas/Fort Worth, Tx metroplex our excursions to San Augustine and Nacogdoches took on a more joyful meaning as we would walk through those trees at different stretches of Hwy 287, pick pecans and sometimes just sit and eat and watch the traffic go by. He would describe different nature scenes from his childhood or name the sounds of the nite. My mother would speak of hide and seek and drawing water from the spring I remember being crystal clear. My father, his father and uncles would tend a moonshine distillery there in those woods and my mother would laugh in describing how they ran white lightning around and across the Louisiana border. I shall never forget the looks on their faces or the tales they wove. My mother is gone now and my father has alzheimers, but when I look at I remember the animation and the love he felt delivering pulp wood and the trees of San Augustine. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
