Catching Up - Again
Kentucky Greetings, WoodyWatchers! Already, 2010 has been so very busy. Chloe and I have had trouble keeping up with our chores, emails, thank-you notes, and blogging. We just returned home late last night from Muhlenberg County. We had a terrific day at Muhlenberg South. I can't wait to show you some pictures and tell you all about it. I would should you pictures now - but our camera is still in the Woody Bus. We left it there last night when we returned home. We are getting ready to crawl back in the Woody Bus and head to Pike County - Pinsonfork to be exact! Western Kentucky yesterday, Eastern Kentucky tomorrow! I love traveling the Bluegrass!
Speaking of the Bluegrass, what about our Kentucky Wildcats? We are 17-0. Undefeated! We listened to the UK-Florida game on the way home from school last night. It was a paw-biter. Down, up, down, up, tied - but in the end the CATS survived!
While we're on the subject of survival, I received this email from Mrs. Buckler's First Graders at New Castle, Kentucky. Take a look:
Dear Woody,
My students and I have just finished with the tenth week of, “Dog Gone Wild”. We enjoyed it very much, looking forward to each Wednesday, when the Henry County Local came to our school!
We made a short list of things that you could do with your harmonica. This is what we think:
*Play Chloe songs
*Play Christmas carols
*Be a harmonica soloist
*Since you were “in a pickle”, you could play the song that people play in jail (Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen), because they are in a pickle, too.
Those are the suggestions that my first graders came up with for you!
Following this letter, there are letters from my students for you to enjoy.
Thanks for another great series! Happy Holidays to you and yours!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Buckler

I love the idea about being a harmonica soloist. Maybe my opening number could be Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen.
I better scoot. If I don't get my backpack ready, I will be living the words to that song real soon!!!
Have a great day! Work and Dream like a BIG DOG!
