Weeping/Teasing

The Corn Mother by Cristina Perez.

 

I know I write a good blog post when I weep during the process.  I could blame it on the chemotherapy if I am in manly company but not here today.  But here today I started before writing.  Something is developing that is extremely important for me and it really isn’t rock solid but sort of an idea at the moment.

So this is the teaser that I may get a chance to go to Lourdes as in France as in THE Lourdes.  I just can’t hold it back, it is way too exciting to think about.  I am taking it as a given but it isn’t all figured out yet.  It’s in the half baked category.  So stay tuned.

Boy, what do I follow that with?  Oh, I know a little wordology for our education.  We are never done learning, that’s what they say.   Oh, and this is one more chance to get corn in the conversation.  Here at Raven Ranch half our corn production was in the variety “Bodacious”.   Everyone had so much fun with the word that it has been sticking with me and not to mention that the variety was outrageous eating and big outrageous eating.

A minute ago I looked it up in the big old paper dictionary.  There is was, a real word.  But the origin of the word is SW cowboy.  It is a combination of the words “bold” and “audacious” giving us “bodacious”!   Lovin it!

OK, there you go for today, off to fix the washer, sounds like the drive belt broke.  As always, love you, miss you,  Felipe.

  1. Ok Buddy: Lets get that half baked plan right back into the oven! 350 for 3 hours or 2 hours over an open fire in cast iron.

    1. Steve-O ~ my guy, how are you doing there? Cooling off? Got any of those Mountain Quail in the pie? Grouse? I got to the range at the Club yesterday. I wanted to sight in the 22 for possible rabbit hunt at West Bar. October coming soon. Yea, I’m trying not to get to excited about half baked ideas but that could get me through the winter. Say hello, Phil.

    1. Cris ~ yes, yes and more yes. It is just an idea at the moment. But Phil’s Camino, all the parts of it were ideas at one point not long ago. There is power in getting things started. You’re a peach. Try to call you tomorrow evening. Felipe.x

  3. Yes, let’s get this idea fully baked!! Can’t wait to hear more of the details! How exciting to even contemplate. Loved hearing about the Etymology of bodacious! Who knew! Thought it came from some fashion derivative. ? sad I missed tasting it, but next summer/fall.

    Much Love,

    The Handler

    1. Dear Handler ~ etymology is the study of insects, no? That was last week with the praying mantis and St Francis. There was a riding bull that was the meanest and ugliest named Bodacious. Yea, great word. Come next year for September 1st for the corn. Miss you, Felipe.x

  4. So exciting!! It’s already done! The how is up to the BIG man upstairs who grants you everything your sweet Felipe heart desires. I used bold in my post today, I wish I had read your post before and could have used bodacious! Love you!
