Clayt Jr. Russ and the Rock

I was doing some work with Clayt in the “State Park” (the property below the house) about a year ago.  There was one rock (rather large) that Clayt couldn’t decide on the best location for. He asked me to move it a couple of times. Ultimately the rock ended up exactly where it began.

We decided to move on to the next project, at which time Clayt tripped over the rock they had just “moved”.

Russ was worried that Clayt had hurt himself ­ until he saw Clayt’s sly grin and heard him say “If people wouldn’t move the d**n rocks around on me….”

Agent 105

CC Jr. was always obsessed with the weight of his women -- Adele, LLD and Lex. So, when Lex was overcome by his questions about weight -- which launched most all telephone conversations, I told Lex to always respond to G-Pa with the figure 105 pounds -- no matter what. Thus the reason Alexis' alias is Agent 105.

One Christmas holiday I traveled back to J-town to celebrate with the family, and especially Alexis, who had traveled home for the holiday. During that visit -- Clayt (III) was extholing (to Alexis, in my presence) the importance, joys and challenges of the family lineage of aunts. He said, "Alexis, I have Crazy Aunt Wanda, and you have LLD, who we will from here on out call Lyin' Aunt Laurie (LAL)."

Now -- what the heck is up with that?
