A Good Day at the Ranch

I won't steal Michelle Wade's thunder as she'll probably write about the day at Galloping Grace Youth Ranch today. I got to go out after a long absence because of us being gone and Betty's bacterial infection battle (which hopefully should be over soon). We're believing in God's healing power over these little @$&!##*.

It was a good day and truly illustrated the purpose of the ranch - to bring joy to children through horses - and that happened today.

Plus I got to work with kids and horses and that adds up to a good day in my book.

Today is August 29 and if today is your Birthday then you share your day with: John McCain (presidential candidate and authentic war hero), Robin Leach (host of "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous"), William Friedkin (director - "The Exorcist"), Elliott Gould (actor - "M.A.S.H."), Richard Attenborough (director - "Ghandi"), Isabel Sanford (actress - "The Jeffersons"), Ingrid Bergman (actress - "Casablanca") and John Locke (English philosopher).

On this day in 1966 the Beatles played their last concert in Candlestick Park in San Francisco. In 2005 hurricane Katrina made landfall in New Orleans, Louisiana.
