Why?

The early townsfolk of Why must have had a sense of humour. Can you imagine them sitting around trying to decide on a name for their town.
“What about Jonestown?” from Mr. Jones
“Why?” the rest responded.
“What about New Pumpkinville?” asked another sad that the old Pumpkinville had been renamed Phoenix after if burnt down.
“Why?” they all responded.
Anyway, that’s how I picture it.

One modern day inhabitant has kept the tradition with his sense of humour. Just take a look at his mailbox.

Hi Guys,

Gerri, I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love the way you write. It makes me feel like I'm right there with you, I wish, the way you describe things, especially Belle Starr and her ranch. She really sounds like a unique person to meet, one who loves life and everything it has to offer. To have a life of not worrying about time schedules.. oh how I can't wait......

Anyways, glad you are enjoying your trip, please blog again for my next little get-a-away from everyday life around here

Talk to you soon,
Love from all of us,
Louise, Lou & family
