Persistence makes all the difference, whether in history or science. And it is that persistence that can change the world, in ways both large and subtle. The work of engineer Otis Boykin helped facilitate a revolution in electronics, from the pacemaker to guided missiles.
Our baby girl is all grown up now (she’s 22). She has her own apartment, she’s got her degree from Houston Baptist University, she’s got her a big girl job and she pays her own bills (at least for the most part).

Linden had a great block party last weekend. The weather was perfect and all that attended had a good time. Thank you Linden Together for hosting this great event. It seems like I am thanking Linden Together for something each week and that is just about the case. This group is showing amazing energy and a great ability to pull together things with a broad appeal in the community. Larry Allen and Whitney Goebel deserve a special shout out for pulling together the events. Jenna Lockhart and her 4H group who brought a bunch of the cutest goats and chickens known to man get a great big thank you as well. Jessie Rymel from the Agrilife program was there helping organize as well. Just a great group effort and we all got to enjoy a great evening together on the Square. The next block party is scheduled for Oct 17.
