Great Value? Not so much!

Have you noticed the new packaging of Wal~Mart brand products? Well, I have and you would think that the new plain look would cost less wouldn't you? But NO! The old green packaging was $1.46 the new plain white packaging is now $1.79!

I guess it costs more to be plain!

On a different note, yesterday as Shelby and I were heading home from another photo shoot I spotted this set of tracks. I've been wanting to try and take some pictures here. These tracks run behind Griffis Steel Co. and being it was a late Sunday afternoon and not much traffic or anything else going on and I had the camera, and the time and a willing participant it was a good time to try and take some pictures.

(If you click on the picture you can enlarge it for more detail.)

As we got out there on the tracks I told Shelby, "your mama would die if she saw us out here!"

It didn't take but a few minutes and I snapped a few shots and we got back in the truck and went on home.

Once we got home, I loaded the pictures on the computer.

I thought, I think I'll load them on to Face book.

I kid you not, no sooner than I hit the publish button, maybe a half a minute later the phone rang :)

It was Christon calling, so I had Shelby answer it.

She was standing by me and I heard Christon say, "Have you been playing on the rail road tracks??" Shelby was kind of surprised she knew about it and she said "yes."

She told Shelby, "that we don't play on the rail road tracks."

Yeah we know, but she told her "we could run fast" :-)

Another funny thing about it was that my daddy saw the pictures on Face book and said, "NO BOW? She's so pretty".

Might have been Papa's first time ever not seeing a bow in Shela's hair.

I guess I can shock folks every now and then.

I love it!!
