What are Your Treasures?
Friends describe me as a Cinderella with a gypsy flair. I describe myself as a Cinderella with a Scarecrow brain! Like the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, searching for a brain. At age 19, a bizarre car accident exposed me to carbon monoxide poisoning. I died that day, witnessed heaven and l spoke to my grandfather, while witnessing other family members and conversed with Jesus. The CO poisoning had the effect of a tornado, blowing my brain clean and leaving debris for me to piece together. While little was left of my recollections and operation of the simplest of things were difficult. In 1972, I was informed by my doctors that I made medical history. I grew up on a farm in the 50s in Bowie Texas. I began writing five years ago, about this event, when I was challenged in a bible study class to write it down. Even though my writing abilities were almost none existent, the use of the computer enabled me to put my story on paper. The result of writing my life story down enabled me to realize my treasures in life were not only what I kept, but the Heavenly treasures were what I was willing to give away! I want to encourage you to find your own story of Grace and to pass it forward to help others in their own life's struggles. My desire for you is that you become a treasure in someone's life. You may never know how the actions that you take will make colorful seeds in someone s life. I feel that the publication of my book in passing forward my experiences is my true occupation and purpose in life. You can find my book locally at" Dirt Road Diva's" in Mabank Texas and at "Sylvesters' Salon" in Gun Barrel City Texas. I am a resident of Cedar Creek Lake area since 1990. I have been published in several magazine articles and in the book 88+Ways Music Can Change Your Life. Inspirational music stories, quotes, and anecdotes from all around the world by Vincent James & Joann Pierdomenico. I also own an on line, unique home furnishings and wedding

Fishing Report from TPWD (Mar. 12)

GOOD. stained; 58 degrees; 0.10 feet above pool. The bite is consistent. The hybrid and white bass deadsticking bite will be here for just a few more weeks while the water temperature increases with the warmer weather. The white bass and hybrids will be making their run into the creek arms and will settle in along shallow points and shallower water to lay their eggs for spawning. Use half ounce to 1-1/2 ounce jigs with 4-5 inch plastic flukes depending on what the winds are and drift long lengths of the lake in 22-36 feet of water. Drift at speeds of .2-.6 mph using your drift mode on your trolling motor or using drift socks. If the winds are not too bad you can just drift with the wind. Thumping on the bottom of your boat will attract fish and group them up underneath as you drift. Utilizing a splasher also works well with thumping. Try smaller sized plastics as the bite will be smaller sized baits. Look for Birds and Loons early mornings on shallow flats as the fish will come up to follow the bait and feed early especially on cloudier and colder days. The crappie bite is on docks and in creeks with minnows or jigs. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Still shallow around creek mouths and also drifting random depths 10-40 feet with cut shad or rough fish. Water is stained and surface temps are in the mid to.high 50's lake is full. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
