It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature.
Actually, it’s not possible.
She knows all.
Remembers all.
Gives all.
And taketh all.
Nature is like music.
Arias.
Crescendos.
Acoustic strumming.
Symphonic storms.
Humming harmonies.
Drum beats.
Sonatas.
Rap and jazz.
Nature.
You can’t leave home without it.
You may not notice it.
But it never leaves you.
As poet Kenneth O. Hanson put it:

April is almost in the books. Time flies when you are having fun. We have enjoyed having my brother, Fred Jordan, and his son, Mitch Jordan, visiting this week. They have been working on their Mason house. We all agree that this working in the yard gets harder the older we get.
Our daughter, Tina Ceynowa, and her children John and Amber and our granddaughter Megan went to Austin Saturday for Monster Mash.
With the sunny skies and occasional rains, Mason is looking green and fresh and the temperatures have stayed very pleasant for the many outside activities we all enjoy. There are several fundraisers in the coming weeks that would benefit from your support as well, so check your schedule and include those that you wish to enjoy.
Chicken & Eggplant Parm Bake
Eggplant Parmesan is one of mine and my sister’s favorite dishes. My sister (Judy) shared this recipe with me and it happens be to what we order nearly every time we have a chance to go an Italian Food Restaurant. You can serve with garlic bread and a salad you will have a complete “Italiano” meal.

He Always Had Time...
It is a truly organized, purposeful and committed man who recognizes the best time to “retire,” to turn in his car keys and to admit it when living alone independently finally is no longer possible.
One such person was the colorful J. M. (Densey) Denson. An insurance agent for almost a half century, he sold his business in 1969, ready to assume what amounted to volunteer full-time service at Mineral Wells’ First Baptist Church, where he was a member ...
There is about five months and a week or two left of the “Pile-of-Ticking!” I’m trying real hard not to let it get to me, but my patience is running thin. I choose to ignore as much as I can. But, when the world is in such a mess and they talk about bathrooms?
I’m not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens
Roswell, New Mexico. 4 July 1947 – On the anniversary of America’s Independence from whoever we’re independent from, random ranchers, who were sitting on their porches drinking from Mason jars, reported seeing something strange in the sky. William Woody, standing outside with his father on that fateful evening, said he saw a ‘brilliant object’ plunge to the ground.
April has been a fun month at the library. We hooted with laughter at Jerry Barlow’s anecdotes and one-liners and were awed by his skill in Celtic fingerstyle guitar and his wonderful singing. Then last night author Reavis Z. Wortham signed books, read an excerpt from his Red River Mysteries, and told us about them and his syndicated columns and other writing.
The Mason Lions Club met Tuesday, April 19th, for it’s weekly luncheon meeting. There were 36 members and 2 visitors in attendance.
“Boss” Lion Joel Kuykendall mentioned the district 2A convention this coming weekend in San Angelo. We are allowed 6 delegates. To date only 4 have signed up.
Prayers were asked for Lion Charles Pluennecke who is in the hospital.
Lion Chad Schmidt was responsible for the program and introduced Steely Smith, daughter of Shayne and Jim Bob Smith.
