Before dinner, while the chicken was baking, we went to look for Oprah's place again. This time, armed with very clear instructions from Rich, we found it, just about five minutes away from us. We stopped outside the entrance, and I took a picture of the house from the truck with Tom's digital camera. The house sits up on the side of a hill and has a big gate marked with a capital O. We didn't hang around to take a picture of the gate. There was also a Beware of Dog sign that we took seriously. Although I did note that the gate was open.When Tom went to download the picture, the batteries had been dead -- no picture! We'll try again, but to be honest, there's nothing special about it. Just another big house.
It is football season, of course, and homecoming season, and over the last few days a lot of houses around here have been toilet papered. If you have a teenager in school, you got wrapped. The Fosters have Kevin, and Jerry has Hannah, so those two Berry Road landmarks got hit. The rest of the houses are either full of old coots or young coots with babies, so we escaped. Birchwood Road and Lyndon Road, though, bear the marks.PS -- The prison break in Huntsville made the Baraboo newspaper.
