Stella's Place 
Happy Fence Friday!
Paramount Ranch is part of the National Park Service, Calabasas, Santa Monica Mountains, CA. This photo is of Western Town, a motion picture set used in many feature films and TV shows.
“This lone tree in the field behind my house makes a great subject to photograph any time of the year. A blanket of snow that fell in mid-December added to the texture of the scenery.” – Steve Edwards, Holden, Missouri
“Winter in Kentucky: When we get these beautiful wet snows that stick to everything, I cannot stay inside in the warmth of the house. I must get bundled up and go walking with camera in hand to capture all the beauty around me. The sun was shining bright after a night of beautiful falling snow and the sky was so blue—an awesome combination.” – Juanita Jones, Lawrenceburg, Kentucky

Thank you Lucille – those are beautiful…and nostalgic. The Paramount Ranch was near where I grew up and was destroyed in the 2018 Woolsey Fire. Here’s a link about its restoration:

There was another old western town movie set just over the hill from us that had been used in early Gunsmoke episodes but replaced by Corriganville. I rode my horse through ‘town’ (’bout a half hour ride from home) one day, and a guy in a jeep with a rifle yelled from the next ridge over that it was private property and get out. I waved and rode off, but he intercepted me at the road and apologized for being so terse. Said a lot of kids would go there and do mischief so he had been hired to patrol it. We had a nice chat and I rode home. I’ve always felt an affinity for the old west…maybe a recycled spirit from back then.

Thanks for the update on the ranch, weather…and the fun horse-riding story. Friends of mine had a horse ranch in the Santa Monica Mountains at one time. But horses are a very expensive hobby and they eventually sold them off and started having kids instead. LOL!

Good morning, WeeWeed! The thing with present-day U.S. Marxists is that they think they’ll be the ones telling others what to do and how to do it.
Surprise! The elite have already taken all those positions. You? Why you don’t get nuthin’ but an order to stand in the front lines and fight for them to get rich. What price have the Maduros, Maos, Ortegas, Castros, Stalins ever paid? A couple of uncomfortable nights until they convinced others to die for them means zip.

It seems that Pelosi is running things. That should scare everyone, even Heel-Up. She might take a header in the shower or shoot herself in the head twice while she is asleep. Pelosi seems to be totally out of control. A really dangerous situation. I heard last night that there are people over 70 years old being held in jail because they were at the rally on Jan. 6. It has been two months and they have not been given bail. I believe I heard that they weren’t even in the Capitol.

Report finds charter schools don’t drain money from district schools

Critics of charter schools often state that these schools hurt traditional school districts by “draining” and “funneling” money and resources away from them. But do they?
