creating an entry that could be a winner. Thanks, Ted.

Karen's Commentary: Giving space to Dar.
Darlene’s Commentary: What I’d like to see in Wonder Valley’s future is a community that supports parks, community events, remaining rural, preserving the natural environment, preserving historical places and encouraging local people to open
small businesses here. I’d love to see Wonder Valley remain one-of-a-kind, a special place we can be proud of.
Today’s Thought: In Survivalists’ language, they will GOOD (Get Out of Dodge) in their BOV (Bug Out Vehicle), along with the Golden Horde (masses of panicked people). In case of a GDE (electrical Grid-Down Event), when YOYO (You’re on Your Own), you’ll need an INCH (I’m Never Coming Home) bag because it may be TEOTWAWKI (The End of the
World as We Know It)!
Until next time . . . remember to take time to enjoy the WONDERs all around us.
