We picked them up. After several days of this, I left a note from the Lawn Gnomes that this is not nice. They stopped leaving stuff outside their door. A week later the idea about writing about a group of Gnomes came about. I called my security post in the woods "My Gnome Home." And that started a flood of stories to flow. I also write poems which I attribute to Alfred, my Alligator butler.
This also ties in with my volunteer work with the University of Texas at Arlington Texas as a volunteer digger at their dinosaur site for the past 3 1/2 years.
I love to read almost any type of story and my mind instantly transported to where the story took place. I had time to read on my job but that had to stop because of the supervisor said so, so I took up pen and notebook and wrote my own story. By the time I stopped, 4 months, I had 8 notebooks filled.
The story intrigued me and my mind, heart and soul really took over. The "story" spoke to me in my dreams, just like the bones in the dino field. I transplanted close friends in the book and I draw upon them. Also the places where I have been and close encounters with Jesus Christ.
At the moment (17 years) we have lived in the same apartment in Euless Texas. My wife and I spent 20 years in the Air Force and 8 years in Germany. I traveled from Bodo, Norway to Algeria, Scotland to Northern Iraq in the First Gulf War. I felt like a foreigner when we came back to the United States.
My wife, Deborah, of 36 years, have 2 children, Daniel and Sarah. Both are married. Danie and Eva have 3 wonderful boys. Joseph, Jacob and Andrew. Sarah and Paul have each other and their 2 dogs and 2 cats. My wife works at our son's house as a full time Nanny for the three boys. I on the other hand work in Forth Worth in Sundance Square as a Security Officer. My hobbies take me to a Field of Bones 3 miles from home looking for dinosaur bones. We have found a Hydrosaur, Crocodiles and turtles in this mix. And da bonz talk to me. Da Gnomes, Alfred all work together quite well.ver menos
