ok where did summer go? Not that I am complaining much we have just had one of the hottest summer's on record here in west virginia...one good thing though I guess most people have finished vacations and house repair and we can get back to important things such as web sites and making banners for the banner exchange..and boy have I got a lot of making up to do since talkcity shut me down..so I figure if I can do it you guys can do it...so come on, if your don't have your banner with us yet,get busy and send it on in and I will move ya into a nice slot in the neighborhood,and don't forget you will also receive some nice road kill recipes when you join up,HPO know's how to treat new neighbors,so will just sit here and wait till you move in...

Hi Everyone! I am so happy that fall is just around the corner. We have had a very hot summer, and I am looking forward to cooler temps. Then a bonus of the kids going back to school! Oh Joy! Then my son goes and breaks his leg a week and half before school starts. What a way to start the school year!
Gee and we haven't had to replace any staff members this month; that is really a treat! I feel so blessed to be working with a great bunch of people (cept Bill).
I've added some new faces to our HPO Photo Album; and it your face is not there... we would love to add it.
In August we revitalized our Frequent Poster program. April was kind enough to spruce up our award, Thanks April! We also, saw some great new sites; and looking forward to seeing more! Rusty

Hello HPO Members,
The Awards Program picked up a few more sites the month of August. There's always many members who participate in the final vote. Enter your sites and good luck.
Has the summer heat wave finally gave way to cooler weather here in Michigan. It makes it much better to get outside and have fun. My grandbaby is now almost 4 months old. Where does the time go? :-))
Have a great month and enjoy your family and friends.
Until next time, Sherry

Well summer is winding down. I will be glad to see it go. It's been way to hot here.
I've been getting OPS for our chat room so we can kick unruly computer users out. We really don't care who stops in to say hi but they must behave.
I also have been checking broken links on our HPO pages and ducking Rusty.
