Secret visitors...

[TyBoo]

We had some out-of-state guests today. I can't say who it was because they are on a secret escape from the farm, but we sure do appreciate the potatoes they brought us! They are taking their last weekend before the spring planting season for some R&R at the beach down in Seaside. They picked a good weekend for it, too, because the weather finally settled down a little and it is dry and almost warm. Had us a great little outdoor oyster dinner with strawberry shortcake for desert.

Mike... I have been meaning to ask you :?: , however, after the mild stroke things don't reside in the old Gray Matter as they used to :roll: .

Where'd you get the name of Tyboo :thup ? I know how I got the name Butch because dad said it was easier to spell than Darrell. Just wondering... bout Tyboo :smile

Butch,

TyBoo is named for Ty Booth... a great friend of Mike, now no longer with us... sorry Mike, had to step in.

Dusty

 

[Butch]

Sorry :sad :unlove for the loss of a dear friend... however, Mike carries the name well :thup .

 

[TyBoo]

Thanks for asking, Butch. And thank you Dusty for answering and remembering the story. It means a lot.

Here's what I had to say about the name a year after I put it on.

In a lifetime we can only hope to experience a friend such as Tyler. TyBoo is a fitting tribute to Tyler's memories not forgotten.
