I was rased on a farm, small and poor. I went to the city because that was were the money was. I have now retired, bought 140 acres 7 tractors 1 back hoe 1 skied steer and looking for dozer. when I came to my small town I saw two people setting in the middle of a 4 way stop talking. One going west the other east. when I pulled up behind one of them they both waved at me. In about one minute they wear on there way. that was 10 years ago. Today I sat in that same 4 way and found out what Jose got tom for Christmas. When you turn on to Z. HWY in NW MO. the next car or truck you meet will wave. If you won't to meet someone stop and open the hood. It took some time before I made any fronds up here. But after I helped a one armed man cut his hay and get it in, I did not even ask for gas money, he is 80 and lives alone. I gave a neighbor a big hackberry tree that blew down in a storm, for fire wood, We cut it up and I helped hall it to his house. I have good neighbors who stop, wave, drink coffee, help me any time they see I could use it. When I first came up here some ask why are you doing THIS you do not know these people, I said if you wont a good neighbor first you need to be one. I have made this to long and I am sorry. May God Bless All and Have A Happy New Year. KC Bob
