Serving Woods Blocks 1500 through 1999
An honor to help homesteaders in Stream Blocks 1750 through 1999.
Farmer as an occupation has been removed from the U. S. Census. Farming is dying and we are frightened and sad. We serve Farm Blocks 4000 through 4999 and 6999 through 6499. This was our first CL assignment.
The Song and The Sigh, by Henry Lawson (1867-1922)
The creek went down with a broken song,
'Neat the she oaks high;
The waters carried the song along,
And the oaks a sigh.
The song and the sigh went winding by,
Went winding down;
Circling the foot of the mountain high,
And the hillside brown.
They were hushed in the swamp of the Dead Man's Crime,
Where the curlews cried;
But they reached the river the self-same time,
And there they died.
And the creek of life goes winding on,
Wandering by;
And bears for ever, its course upon,
A song and a sigh.
Our second CL assignment serving Creek Blocks 4000 through 4749 and 6000 through 6249.
Taking a final examination after so many years is still traumatic, but I passed the course and now at long last can return to our Heartland Community part of which has been freely given. Help, compassion, understanding, and above all encouragement. These and many more will also be returned. Please remember that I am but an e-mail away.
