Poppy's Front Porch - in the Missouri Ozarks

Poppy's Front Porch - in the Missouri Ozarks
This photo was taken in 1949. My cousins and I remember the porch after our grandfather walled it in, added a door and big screen windows.

Worth the wait? We shall see...

I have this idea that my cousin Mike, while enjoying his birthday, keeps having this odd feeling; a nagging thought. Something's just not right; it's like the feeling of walking into a room and stopping when you realize you've forgotten why you went in there.

"Maybe there's something I ought to check on the computer", he thinks to himself.

I can almost see him checking his email, his facebook page...well, that wasn't it.

"Cousin Bob usually comes up with something creative, and here it is after 5:30 already. P.M."

Mike logs on to The Porch.

"Well, hey here's finally Something...not a whole lot, but a post nevertheless."

Maybe someone in his family reminds him at this point that patience is a virtue. Bob's probably having writer's block. Check back later, there might be more! Mike considers this, when suddenly there's a knock on the door, and the phone rings! Which way to go...
