I had to go down to civilization on business..It was a beautiful morning for a trip..The sun was warm on the desert mountain roads,wildlife was everywhere.....As I came out of the mountains and into the valleys rolling hills,herds of horse`s and cattle were grazing in the fields.There were plenty of young horse`s and cows`s half the size of thier parents playing or sleeping..... Farther down the highway,I could see the wineries and vineyards..This was a Picture Post Card perfect day.....As you get closer to the city,small towns start to pop up..Not much going on in them during the day,much less this early in the morning....As I get into the first town what do I see?..JW`s on the street corner`s with Awakes and Watchtowers..???..LOL!!..Who do they think is going to see them?..The odd traveller passing through at 60kmh?..The cow in the field across the street?..I was friggin amazed,what a waste of time..I had to laugh....40 minutes later another small town..And..More JW`s on the street corner,this town was smaller than the last!..JW`s on every corner,all 4 of them..LOL!!..Like the last town these were old JW`s,probably lived there all thier lives....There was a happy but glazed look on thier faces.They looked like young children trapped in old peoples bodys,playing a game they had played for decades.Not really knowing why they do it anymore,but its something to do.....They no longer believe what they used to,back when I went to a Kingdom Hall..And..I doubt they really care.....Dead to the life around them,waiting for a new system that will never arrive..But..They have something to do everymorning.Stand on a street corner with the Watchtower and Awake in the middle of nowhere..And..Watch cars go by...OUTLAW
...VineYards and Zombies..

It's a good way for them to do the hours for their monthly report just standing there and doing nothing. At least it's better than knocking on doors and irritating the house occupants.

There was one older guy,just paceing,holding his magazines.I doubt he expected to talk to anyone,ever.....The other person I really noticed was a lady in the smaller town.When I glanced at her driving by,she held her magazines just a little higher and smiled.There was no way to tell what the magazines were,driving by at 60kmh,unless you can spot a JW..This was obviously a high point in her day..LOL!!
