What do fishermen
and hypochondriacs
have in common?
They don't really
have to catch
anything to be happy.
If a man is standing
in the middle of the
forest speaking and
there is no woman
around to hear him,
is he still wrong?
I started out with
nothing and still
Therapy is expensive,
poppin' bubble wrap
I like cats, too.
Let's exchange
recipes.
Suburbia: where they
tear out the trees &
then name streets
after them.
Stress is when you
wake up screaming &
you realize you
haven't fallen asleep
yet.
I thought I wanted
a career, turns out
I just wanted paychecks.
I majored in Liberal
Arts. Will that be for
here or to go?
Is Santa so jolly
because he knows
where all the bad
girls live?
If you get to thinkin'
you're a person of some
influence, try orderin'
somebody elses dog
around.
"Waiter - this coffee
tastes like mud!"
"It should, sir,
- it was ground
this morning."
Remember never squat
with yer spurs on.
YOU KNOW YOUR IN
TROUBLE WHEN:
You take an
assertiveness training
course and you're
afraid to tell your wife.
Your chauffeur is
on parole for car
theft. And you just
remembered you don't
even own a car
like this.
Your children's
school called to
surrender.
A black cat crosses
your path and drops
dead.
Stop repeat offenders.
Don't re-elect them!
I'm not a
complete idiot.
Some parts are
missing.
The trouble with being
punctual is that nobody's
there to appreciate it.
-- Franklin P. Jones
"If you think your
boss is stupid remember;
you wouldn't have a job
if he was any smarter."
Albert Grant
Two old ladies were
sitting on the porch
at the old folks home.
One turned to the other
and asked "Martha, you
were married a long time,
did you and your husband
have mutual orgasm?"
The other little old
lady sat and rocked for
a minute and said, "No,
I think we had State Farm."
Panorama of the Ranch in Alpine, Arizona
)
)
Both of these shots were taken from Bob and Georgie's
front porch. It shows the meadow and the cabin.
As you can see this is a wounderful place
to get away from the city and the heat.
The Noble Ranch
)
This shot was used by Salt River Project in one
of their calenders. The beautiful fall colors are
one of the reasons we like it there so much. A beautiful
place to visit or take a holiday in. Nature in its
purest form, it feels great to be there. It is not
surprising that it was picked for use in a calendar.
Images of this lovely place might soon be gracing
personal family calendars or corporate calendars for
car companies, Aviva or travel companies thanks to its beauty.
The Peak in the back ground is "Gobbler's Peak".
The Forest Service changes the name almost yearly,
but to those who grew up in Alpine it is known as
"Gobbler's Peak".
Ranch drive looking east at Alpine
)
The ranch is located south west of Alpine.
It was homesteaded by my grandfather Edward
Alva Noble around 1879. My dad LeeGrand Noble
was the 13th child and was born and rasied
on the ranch.
Alpine Cabin
)
My father built this cabin during his vacations
from work it took about 15 years to get it to
this condition of course he only had two weeks a
year to work on it. You can see the orignal homestead
on the ancestor page.

This is what a little boy does for fun. Believe
me he takes his fun seriously too.
The Home in Alpine
)
This is where Uncle Leslie and Aunt Zella
lived during the winter and before the house at
the ranch was built. As you can see there are
no buildings going out of town to the east. A
very early picture of east side of Alpine.
The old Ranch House
)
This house was built on the ranch by Uncle
Leslie I beleive. It later burned down about
1955. That's Leslie and Zella, Merwin, Bob,
David and Edward I think? I'll have to ask
Arlene and make sure.
