Mr. Turkey is BACK!!!

For many years we set up a hay bale turkey on the corner of Katy Fort Bend and Colonial Parkway.  Then his spot was taken when a traffic light was installed on that corner. Mr. Turkey was forced into retirement.   But he’s back! We made changes in the side parking lot and now have room […]

Snoop Dogg and Water Gardening

Do you ever have super bizarre work dreams? Well the other day I had the weirdest dream work dream ever. I went to NRG stadium for the Snoop Dogg concert (in real life I’ve only been to two concerts…I’m not a concert person at all least of all a Snoop Dogg one. I probably couldn’t […]

Mom, mom, mom, mother ANITA!

The wonderful Anita Nelson is my mom. My title is how I have to address mom at work… I begin with Mom a few times then go to the dreaded Mother and the last resort Anita. I finally can gain her attention that way. There are four of us Nelson kids, Peter, Anne, Mary (that’s […]
