Prolly means as a blogger, I’m a failure.
The average level is 9%, btw.
Via Blue Girl in a Red State, where I also swiped this idea of doing 100 word posts, 50 in 50 days. Nobody challenged me but it seemed like an idea that would be fun to play with so I just invited myself in. I did let myself skip the war anniversary. And I decided that I would start each new post with just about the word or phrase that had ended the last one. Sort of fun. Leads me all over the place.

*I stand corrected about Helen. Nevertheless Windows Toward the World is very poetry active and worth checking.

Sweet gum buds with view of Ruddles Mill Road.
Ruddles Station, a fortified settlement on the South Fork of the Licking River near the Bourbon/Harrison County line, was established in 1775 as Hinkston’s Station, by John Hinkston who has left his name on Hinkston Creek. Hinkston traversed a game trail from Blue Licks to establish this settlement with help from the likes of Simon Kenton. Hinkston abandoned the station, and it was re-established in 1779 by Isaac Ruddle. Ruddles Station was surrendered to the British and Indians in 1780 under conditions of considerable animosity. Surviving settlers were marched to Detroit and held for the duration of the Revolutionary War.
