Summer’s a Sizzlin’

by

Ladies, we have a brand new contest set to begin Tuesday, the 15th.

Sizzlin’ Summer Stampede of Prizes!!

But, you can’t start entering until Tuesday so quit your fidgeting. You’re worse than these durn mules here! They have their heads hanging over my fence, just raring to get into my vegetable garden again. I swear to my time! Don’t know what I’m gonna do with the crazy things. Don’t know why they don’t go pester some of the other Fillies. Miss Charlene has one of the best gardens anywhere. And Miss Pam and Miss Cheryl planted rows of turnips, radishes, and cucumbers. Some mighty good eatin’ here in Wildflower Junction if I say so myself. These durn mules tend to agree.

But, back to you. This time we’re gonna have three winners instead of the usual one. And the prizes will knock your eyes out. We’ve filled the pantry back up with tons of nice things.

So mosey back over here on Tuesday and get your name in the Stetson!

Delores Fossen Here Tomorrow

by

Hello Darlings! Just a friendly reminder to get out your best dress and hightail it over here tomorrow.

Delores Fossen arrived on the noon stage and she’s resting over at the hotel now.

She’ll be talking tomorrow at the meetin’ hall about some of our favorite subjects. She’ll be wantin’ you to tell her why cowboys are your passion so get on your thinkin’ caps. For some of us, like me, we don’t need to think about much about it. We already know why those sexy men get our rope all in a tangle. Boy, do we ever know! It’s making me hot as a firecracker on the Fourth of July just thinkin’ about it.

So, if you don’t have anything better to do, hitch up your buggy and ride over here tomorrow. You’ll have a chance to win some prizes too. Yee-haw!

Breaking News for all Western & Native American fans

by

horseheader1.jpeGood afternoon!

For any of you who might not keep up with the Western world and Native America, I thought I would pass along some very vital info on the Lakotah Nation.  This is straight in from Indian country.  For any who don’t know, the Lakotah Nation is what many Americans call the Sioux Nation.  Lakotah heros include Sitting Bull, Spotted Tail and Crazy Horse.

Right before Christmas, the Lakotah Nation (due to continuous and extreme treaty violations, which started about 150 years ago) declared its independence from the United States.   In a statement very much like the Declaration of Independence from our own Founding Fathers, the Lakotah Nation is attempting to gain back its freedom from what has become oppression on the part of the government on their reservation.

I applaud their courage in taking such a step and I wish them success and hope that 2008 finds the Lakotah Nation doing well and free.  For more information, go to www.republicoflakotah.com where you can read their own declaration of independence.

What are your thoughts on the matter?
