Happy New Year 2009

As we wound down the last week of 2008 by bringing in another New Year, we have been enjoying some much needed sunshine that helped compact and melt a few inches of the snow that fell in SW Colorado during Christmas week.

By this Saturday and into the early Sunday morning hours of January 4, 2009, we accumulated another 3 to 4 inches North of Bayfield. I am not quite sure what the higher elevations accumulations were, though. The New Mexico weathermen were predicting from 6 to a foot of snow in the mountains around 7500+.

It is still snowing slightly here as I sit working on the OkieLegacy Ezine, Vol. 11, Issue 1 for January 2009, Sunday afternoon.

Speaking of the OkieLegacy Ezine, my oldest son, Michael, has been busy giving it a NEW facelift for 2009. We hope it is more user friendly and interactive. Notice some new items added over at the left column. Such as... Classifieds (50 characters or less), Community Action board and the FamilyNet where you can register your family surnames and post messages.

Also... we have incorporated the old "Mailbag' section and included them with the features. There is NO "Mailbag" section anymore!

Posting Classifieds... The classifieds are moderated and are limited to 50 characters or less. It pertains to Jobs, For Sale, Wanted, For Rent. Do not forget to put in the "Run Until" box the date you want it to run to. Include your name and email (or phone number) before you click on the "send" button.

For those community activists that want to make a "Dynamite Difference" we have added a "DoRight-ers" community action board where you can share your injustice fact and tell us "What would you do?"

If you click on List Community Actions on the left column, it will take you to a list of community actions where you can add to that action.

Michael, have I left anything out? Did I tell our OkieLegacy Ezine readers everything they need to know? If I did leave something out, help me fill them in some more.

By the way... We have been told that Michael E. Wagner has made NWOSU's Fall 2008 President's Honor Roll. Congratulations, Michael! We are proud of you! Keep up the great work! Thanks for helping our OkieLegacy family with it's NEW facelift.
