Up the Creek with another Creeker

[Jack Dickey]

Dennis Peacock has been within a few miles of me this week .. We tried Thanksgiving Day to catch one another without success .. This morning it happened .. Had a good chat for about twenty minutes then he was off again ..

[John Miliunas]

Dang, that Peacock guy is quick!!! Whew...Poses, shoots the picture and then makes it back for the pose, camera in hand! Yup, as has been said many times over, "Creeker visits are the best!"

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I'm envious!

[Jack Dickey]

ENVIOUS ??
Of what , wont nobody come up there from the Creek ??

[Jim Becker]

Indeed an honor to meet Dennis!! (Same for Ken...should I get to Idaho, you're on "my list"... )

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Shucks.........I still have a hard time convincing somebody Idaho really does exist!

[Dennis Peacock]

There are several Creeker's that are on my list to visit. It's just going to take time.

[Dennis Peacock]

Jack,

It was a VERY nice visit with you and the LOYL. I hope that next time, we'll have more time to visit and maybe throw a little sawdust in your shop.

Thanks for the visit and may you and your family be blessed this holiday season.

Now this is a true story, no kidding. I was in a Unix class in Chicago and we were going through the customary introductions at the beginning of the class. I introduced myself as being from Arkansas, and one of the lady students asks "and where would that be?". She actually didn't know where Arkansas was, I told her on the north east corner of Texas, which seemed to help her some because she knew where Texas was. As a side note she was from Wisconsin, and everyone knows all the cheese grows in Wisconsin.

Producing food products does so much for identity crises We do have Tyson, but no one seems to know they are based in Arkansas.

Uh huh! We harvest that thar cheese twice a year with our big John Deere's!

[Andy Hoyt]

Hey, Zahid. That reminds me....

Back in the mid-seventies I was on my way up to Tok, Alaska when I found myself in Whitehorse, Yukon where I stopped for fuel. There, between the road and the Yukon River the Canadian Parks Department had established a visitor center aboard the retired and beached paddlewheeler Klondike.

Tours were possible so I took one. The tour ended in the vessel's pilothouse, whereupon our guide began a discussion about life in the high latitudes, long daylight hours, and other fun stuff. At one point he gestured to the clearly visible full moon and was immediately interupted by this woman in a flowery yellow hat who wanted to know if that was the same moon they saw back home in Wisconsin.
