It has been a long while , since Christmas since I have blogged .
We have been busy getting the house in order, when we bought the house , it was a blank canvas.
We are working on roses, and fruit trees along with building the porches and the dock.
It's time for Yak's peaches and vegs to be coming in and they are open in Ruston and Farmerville now. Remember they do homemade ice cream and pies. Peachfest is coming at end of month in Ruston.
Cormier's is closed until the fall , officially declaring how hot it is. They are on vacation.
Today is a good day to work on inside projects. I can sit in my little house and watch the weed eating and the porch will start soon. Thank goodness for Mark from City of Faith, he has been helping us all winter and into the summer.

Cindy Ingram for more
info 318-651-8311, prmom@comcast.net
please RSVP so we can
have you on the press bus to Selman
Field reception
Press release was
compiled from committee to announce an historic event upcoming/
Preparations Underway for
Nationwide Flyover by Vintage Aircraft
to Mark 70th Anniversary
of the End
of World War
II in 2015
Goal is
to promote preservation
of WWII aircraft
for future generations
(Monroe, LA) On December
20, 2013, a
group of aviation
heritage organizations are
holding a press
conference to announce
preparations commemorating the
70th anniversary
of the end
of World War
II with a
nationwide flyover of
WWII aircraft in
communities
throughout
America on the
weekend of August
15I16, 2015.
The goal of
the mass flyover
is to pay
tribute to the
pivotal role American
airpower played
during WWII and
to remind the
public of the importance of
preserving the last
remaining
planes of the
era so they
can continue to
educate and inspire
future generations.
The press conference
is being held
in Monroe, LA,
the hometown of
the legendary Gen.
Claire Chennault,
whose famous “Flying
Tigers” took to
the skies over
China on December
20, 1941, in
the first counter
attack against Japan
after Pearl Harbor.
The press conference
will be hosted
by the Chennault
Aviation & Military
Museum (701
Kansas Lane, Monroe,
LA, 71203) at
2:00 PM CST,
followed by a
reception at the
historic
Selman Field, which
was the site
of the largest
navigator training school
during WWII. The
Southern Heritage Air
Foundation, with the
support of Green
Light Development, is
flying in
several WWII vintage
aircraft for a flyover and display after the press conference.
“We are pleased
and honored to
be hosting this
historic press conference
here in Monroe,”
said Nell Calloway, Director
of the Chennault
Aviation & Military
Museum, and granddaughter of
General Chennault. “My grandfather and the Flying Tigers
helped lay the foundations for what was to
become the war in China and they are a fitting symbol
for a movement to
pay tribute to the
achievements of
American Airpower during
WWII.”
Calloway is a
member of a
steering committee made
up of representatives from
the History
Channel, the Air
Force Association, the
EAA Warbirds of
America, the Commemorative
Air
Force, air museums,
WWII heritage organizations, aviation
publications, and other
groups
that are helping
to promote participation
in the 2015
nationwide flyover.
“Airpower was
the decisive factor
in winning the
war and the
source of technological
advances of the
postwar era, including
man’s exploration of space,”
said Jerry Yellin,
89,
who flew the
final combat mission
of WWII in
a P51 fighter
on August 14,
1945, and is the
honorary co-chair of the steering committee. “We need to assure these precious aircraft
are
maintained in flyable
condition so that
they can continue
to educate and
inspire the youth
of
America.”
Other groups are
developing plans for
similar “signature” projects
to commemorate the
70th
anniversary in 2015
that will honor
the WWII legacy
of the Army,
the Seaborne Services,
and the
Home Front.

#UncleSi and #duckdynasty give back to their community and the veterans
I have missed blogging daily !
I know you have noticed I am spending a lot of time at the Chennault Museum. It is such a great place and is always hopping every day. Uncle Si was recently at the Museum and we hope to have a new display with some of his service memorabilia soon. He was one of the grand marshals at the Veteran's Day Parade and was such a good sport.

Ella Mae will ride in a horse drawn buggy with Nell Calloway; granddaughter of General Claire Chennault and Director of the Chennault Aviation & Military Museum and then the competition! “Tennessee Walking Horse Shows are quite a flashy competition, with riders dressed in formal attire. The horses are well trained, putting on a spectacular exhibition for their audience.” said Wendell Rogers; C.E.O. of Green Light Development.” We are proud to bring this caliber of show to Monroe, said Rogers. The best part of this event is that it not only raises money for the museum, it also provides a day of entertainment for the community at no cost to the attendees." Some of the pre-horse show activities for the kids includes photo opportunities standing alongside a ¾ size replica of a WW2 P-40 fighter plane, an Army truck, bouncy house, food, music by Mike McKenzie and many local vendors. The smell of popcorn and cotton candy will be in the air. Come one, come all, we look forward to seeing there.

Starr Homeplace in Oak Ridge is planning the “annual Homecoming to the Starr” a summer Community Day, Saturday -June 8th., If it rains for a few minutes, then visitors can duck into one of the 19 museum areas or the big barn. Upstairs in the barn is a continuous fundraiser of books that came from the Stone collection from their book store that was a part of Twin City Mall in Monroe.”
Starr Homeplace in Oak Ridge is the perfect place to get a glimpse of the past of Louisiana. . History that children see and read about in school comes to life, making learning fun. On the plantation there are 19 museums showcasing many aspects of life. The experience for older adults is one of fond memories - remembering things our parents and grandparents shared with us in the past. There is something for everyone! A good day trip. Leather tooling and watercolors along with woodworking, and a blacksmith.
Joe Rolfe said, “ I always encourage artists and craftsman to come out and showcase their work, plus I don’t mind if they want to sale also. Last month we had several artists in that came here . The large bottle tree in the field is a point of interest , as is the many relics of farm equipment spread throughout the 19 museum acre. You can step into a 50’s style kitchen and step back in time and see a grouping of spinning wheels and a quilt frame, go across the field to the barn and enjoy sitting in the old porch swing.
Please contact Joe Rolfe at the Starr Homeplace to be a featured artist. He is looking for people that want to demonstrate the facilities. Joe Rolfe said,” I need people to get involved, I have a lot of areas that need a demonstrator such as a quilting room with a frame. The museums are more interesting if someone is making them come alive in an action way.

times are a changing in the ad business / round up time
Hated to see John Matherne go from KNOE this last week. He was part of who, I thought about, as a KNOE staple. Many years and kids for John--there.
Saw KNOE Veronica Shirley on the Shreveport news , Vantage had a new office open there. I hope KNOE has some fill in the blank business cards.
Chris Tingle is the new sales manager at Channel 3 in Shreveport, he was at KTVE/KARD when he was here.
Big Jim is gone from Radio People , and married
Cynthia Holliday is retired from Radio People.
Susan Allain is at Vantage and is happy as a clam. Working with me quite a bit. Fun to be able to do that again. Susan and I have been friends lots of years.
Chris Zimmerman is in Tampa , running one of the top market stations.
Mike Downhour is the General manager of OPUS broadcasting, and doing a great job.
Cottrell Designs is riving back up.... Joker is over there designing and he is one of the best in the industry. Lot's of new equipment and still on Oliver Road in Monroe, in that little store front. They have saved me so often on political signs and also recently got some car magnets for a client done overnight along with some banners.
