Catching Up; Yet again

Deen and Ham Underwood at the dedication of the new General Bravo

Well it's another Saturday morning, and as usual I seem to be behind the power curve. 
For those that have not heard, our own Deen Underwood had a fall last week end and broke her hip.  Right there and then the Doc's replaced her hip, and she's recovering as well as can be expected.  From last I heard, Deen will be recovering for several weeks before they start rehab.  Our prayers and thoughts are with her.  There was some good news to go along with this though.  A friend of the Underwoods made a $1000.00 donation to their efforts to place and replace markers at Concordia Cemetery.  With the arrangements the Underwoods have made with Sonny Zambrano, that means at least 5 additional markers that can be set.  I do find it ironic that the Underwoods have done more to replace missing or destroyed markers at the cemetery than the Concordia Heritage Association in the past year.

Amongst other news, Had guests Tarna Blackhelm, and Billy Murray onboard this morning's OWEP-Radio show, discussion history and paranormal investigation.  Now folks might ask why I considered this.  Well.... Any good paranormal group researches the locations of their investigations, leanring as much as they possibly can prior to the actual "hunt".  And along the way, they build up a considerable data base of local history.  And after the little incident at Commissioners Court Monday, I thought it'd be a great idea to bring on the folks from GHOST-EP. 
Didn't hear about or see it?  Well GHOST-EP through Facility Manager Monique Aguirre went before Commissioners Court  seeking permission to conduct an investigation inside the court house after hours.  As the Commissioners were leaning towards denying permission, the lights in the court room, lobby and a good portion of the court house went out.  Once they realized it wasn't a joke or a trick, the request was approved unanimous.  That's when the light went back on.   I'm going to attempt to link the County's video archive here for those that wanna watch.  Is kinds trippy!

So for the time being, Take care, may God Bless, and Keep your powder dry!
