September 10th - Partly Cloudy 75 degrees
The above picture is what we see as we drove into Merry Meadows Campgrounds. The 1920 Fordson really caught my attention. I certainly remember many hours riding around in the fields with my Daddy on a Fordson tractor with the same iron wheels; however, ours had fenders and we were allowed to take along a pillow and we could curl up and sleep on that pillow.
We have had a wonderful time at this SMART muster. On Tuesday, we made a trip to Miller's Taxidermy and Museum. We were able to see many of the treasures that Mr. Miller had captured all over the world and many treasures that are native to our area.

Mr. Miller takes many trips to Africa and the following picture shows some of his treasures that he has brought back.
 |
| Do you recognize some of these? |
I was interested in the fowl, as my late husband enjoyed hunting ducks and had several prepared.
 |
| Just a few of the birds that Mr. Miller had. |
After our afternoon at the Taxidermy we enjoyed our Potluck dinner, which is always a hit, our host, Betty and Bernie along with Ollie and Carol prepared Pulled Pork Barbecue that was delicious and the rest of us filled in with a dish to pass.
 |
| We all like to eat and talk. |
Today we got new neighbors and they had a different variety of pets...........
 |
| Pretty and with voices !! |
Tomorrow, we are going to have a special worship service for 911 before we break camp then we all head home. Our next meeting will be in November when we meet for a wintertime luncheon. Some of our folks will head south in October and we wish them God Speed.
