Wild Horse Roundup
By Curtis Schrimp
November 28, 2003
I don’t really know how to start
this as we have been overwhelmed with cards, phone calls and visitors. To
have so many friends and new friends we have yet to meet, but are getting
acquainted through the Wild Horse Roundup. One lady asked about the old
Ira Womble’s place, which is practically disappeared with the Wilkerson
place where the Tony Hammers live in a new house. We used to spend a lot
of time there visiting and playing cards. Lee and I ate lunch on our
special day Wednesday in Kit Carson and Friday when Marty and Kirsti was
home we did it again. An old friend of mine in Hugo used to drive a truck
when I was trucking and we ran together quite often. He sent a card and he
thought I did a better job writing than driving a truck (just kidding).
Lee and I feel so blessed we can still do the things we do.
This Sunday morning there is a
little change in the temperature. It is 3 degrees. The weather Saturday
night caused the ladies to cancel a card party they had scheduled at the
school house. It didn’t snow a lot, but visibility was pretty low for a
while as the traffic was running pretty slow for quite awhile.
There was a road report on TV last
night being given by Eric Escudero. It didn’t show his face, it was just
his voice. It’s nice that a local person has a job like that.
