The Fresno Scraper - an implement that you hitch up to a horse and then it drags across the path to smooth it out, for making a road. My uncle says my grandpa used one of these on Abuelita's property back in 19quaco, to clear a roadway.
This scraper is at the Bowers Mansion in Nevada, on the way to Carson City. We visited there recently after leaving Reno. It was an interesting place, and I got to learn about my own family history as well.

Barlow Girls - Never Alone
one of my favs! like the song, like the music, like the message! and when i want to rock out, this is what i play!
"Never Alone"
I waited for You today
But You didn't show
No no no
I needed You today
So where did You go?
You told me to call
Said You'd be there
And though I haven't seen You
Are You still there?
[Chorus:]
I cried out with no reply
And I can't feel You by my side
So I'll hold tight to what I know
You're here and I"m never alone
And though I cannot see You
And I can't explain why
Such a deep, deep reassurance
You've placed in my life
wooo
We cannot separate
'Cause You're part of me
And though You're invisible
I'll trust the unseen
[Chorus]
We cannot separate
You're part of me
And though You're invisible
I'll trust the unseen
[Chorus]
"Never Alone"

And though You're invisible
I'll trust the unseen

Newsong-Red Letter Day video and lyrics
I got to see this group a while back at Stockton's Asparagus Festival. They were great!
[I do believe it's gonna to be another red letter day, it's gonna be another red letter day]
Every day before the rush gets started
I get down on my knees
And I pray, Lord, I need You here to guide me
Please speak to me
And something happens that I can't explain
His Word starts talking to me and
I'm out to face this world again
I do believe it's gonna be another red letter day
It's gonna be another red letter day
I do believe it's gonna be another chance for me
To take His Word and walk by faith
I got a smile with every step I take
Knowing He is here with me
It's gonna be a red letter day
I had a friend call me up and tell me
How he, he struggles through each day
I told him that I didn't have all of the answers
This world's a crazy place
But I've learned to hide God's word in my heart
So I can have it with me when the pressures of the day start
repeat chorus
I do believe
So many hidden treasures in God's Word for us to find
The mysteries and secrets that are there to bring us life
I do believe it's gonna be another red letter day
I do believe it's gonna be another chance for me
to take His Word and walk by faith
I got a smile with every step I take
Knowing He is here with me
It's gonna be a red letter day
I do believe it's gonna be another red letter day
I do believe
[I do believe it's gonna to be another red letter day, it's gonna be another red letter day]
Every day before the rush gets started
I get down on my knees
And I pray, Lord, I need You here to guide me
Please speak to me
And something happens that I can't explain
His Word starts talking to me and
I'm out to face this world again
I do believe it's gonna be another red letter day
It's gonna be another red letter day
I do believe it's gonna be another chance for me
To take His Word and walk by faith
I got a smile with every step I take
Knowing He is here with me
It's gonna be a red letter day
I had a friend call me up and tell me
How he, he struggles through each day
I told him that I didn't have all of the answers
This world's a crazy place
But I've learned to hide God's word in my heart
So I can have it with me when the pressures of the day start
repeat chorus
I do believe
So many hidden treasures in God's Word for us to find
The mysteries and secrets that are there to bring us life
I do believe it's gonna be another red letter day
I do believe it's gonna be another chance for me
to take His Word and walk by faith
I got a smile with every step I take
Knowing He is here with me
It's gonna be a red letter day
I do believe it's gonna be another red letter day
I do believe

Jeremy Camp-What it Means
Like it!
What It Means lyrics
I've been here a thousand times before
Face down on the floor
Wondering how I even reached this place again
But, You have shown so endlessly, how Your love pours over me
No picture can re-create the beauty that I see
[Chorus]
Show me what it means, to live my life a sacrifice
If only I would realize how much it took to pay the price
I know I'd always give, everything to You
I want this world to always see
Your perfect majesty
Reflecting from my life this brilliant poetry
Written all over this place
The signs of all creation that You breathed
Words can't even state how much You mean to me
[Chorus]
I want to face my very crime
Of not giving all of mine
But I can feel the hope You bring to me
Show me what it means, to live my life a sacrifice
If only I would realize how much it took to pay the price
Show me what it means, to live my life a sacrifice
If only I would realize how much it took to pay the price
I know I'd always give, everything to You

Bruce Campbell and Old Spice
Here's one of the TV commercials that Bruce has done for Old Spice. I remember my uncle use to use Old Spice, but I can't remember what it smells like. Doesn't matter - I LIKE BRUCE!
