You probably didn't notice that I was gone for a couple of days. Well I was. Which inspired me to write a series of "You might have been from ______ if..."

You might have been from Rosalie, TX if....
You have ever eaten at the Rosalie Store... yes I said store.
You have ever gone to a family reunion or other get together at the Rosalie Community Center.
You have even gone to "Buck's Midnight Jubilee" after the Bogata Rodeo on Saturday night.
You know where Billy's house used to be.
You know about both bad accidents that happened on that curve on 909 going towards Clarksville, involving 2 sisters at different times.
You have eaten at Jim's Country Corner.

You remember when they closed school because someone put a dead polecat in the a/c system.
You were ever transported from Talco or Bogata to go to school in Johntown.
