Wednesday's Post With Words

This was my last week's wordless wednesday photo. I decided to load it on facebook and boy was I surprised by the comments. How wonderful to find out that I had taken a picture of a place my dad had been fishing. I never knew....

L. Looks like you have been to Pamlico County. The old man that owned this boat use to go out from time to time and bail the water out. For several years it has been like this. I assume he became ill or passed away.

ME..I like old things and old places... Thanks Lee Anne for some of the history.. you always wonder about the stories that go along with old places. Janice, I wonder too. He must have got too old to keep it up. Bonita, I would imagine your picture is wonderful. It would be perfect for your river place.

ME... So I probably stood in daddy's and your footsteps there... Makes this even more special... Daddy must have said ANN LOOK, cause I told Curtis I wanted to take that picture coming back and he said if you can even see it coming back... But he turned around and pulled down where they load boats and that's where I stood to take this picture. Do you read my blog?

Komen Foundation

I always thought the Komen Foundation was an organization that fought breast cancer. I would buy the products that had the pink ribbons on them. I knew that not much from the price of the product would go to the charity, but I thought of all the ladies that would be buying yogurt and thought, well, that would add up.

Later our local newspaper asked people who would like to honor someone who had cancer or a cancer survior to send $10 for each person and 10 percent would be sent to the Komen Foundation. I was shocked to see how much the newspaper was going to keep. I think a lot of companies are making money off of charities.

Then sometime last year, I heard that the Komen Foundation gave money to planned parenthood. Planned parenthood makes it possible for babies to be aborted. I did not like the idea that Komen Foundation was giving them money.

So yesterday I learned that Planned Parenthood was mad because Komen was withholding some money they had given them. Then today, I hear that Komen was changing their mind and would be giving Planned Parenthood money. I think they are in a Lose/Lose situation.

I will still give to Cancer charities. Mine will be local to the Cancer Society in my area.
