Have you ever had an idea that came to you while you were sleeping? You may not have been trying to think of an idea for something, it just came to you almost as a surprise.

That’s what happened to me last week.  Of course, I knew I had my column to write, but I had already decided what I would write about, so why did something come to me in the middle of the night while I was sleeping so soundly? I guess my brain thought it was important.

A poker run in memory of Mike Gividen will be held Saturday, June 2 (rain date June 9). The event starts and ends at Herb Kinman Chevrolet in Carrollton. Starting time is noon. Cost is $20 a hand, with $5 for extra hand. Prize for the winning hand is $100. There also will be a split the pot drawing. Registration will be held from 10:45 -11:45 a.m. that morning.
Cars are welcome to participate. All proceeds will benefit the Carrollton Lion’s Club, for more information call Jamie Kinman (502) 682-1000. Bring old glasses to recycle.
