From the bluegrass music capital of Owensboro, my blogging friend Angie consistently and persistently produces smart and sassy work with her Kentucky Angel’s Train Wrecks blog.
Angie is the type of writer who can rap somebody on the knuckles and have them wait an hour or two before deciding that it hurts.
This dogged and determined woman has M.S. She’s broken her shoulder. Angie lives in an apartment complex where the management often tries to take advantage of tenants. She named her blog what she did because she keeps running into things with her mobility chair.
I dig her experienced and humorous vision of this life. She carries an edge that she’s earned.
I nominated Angie for the Dragon’s Loyalty Award.
In her acceptance blog piece, she ended by posting a badge for an Award she’s starting today.
Doesn’t the Angel Award look nice?
Angie says anybody who reads her blog can accept her award.
I am honored.
She says there’s no strings attached, no rules, no hoops to jump through, no wordy mountains to climb.
That’s refreshing.
But I decided to write this little tribute to my friend Angie.
Click the link above and give her a read. Angie is a good friend to have.
Thank you, Angie.
Owensboro is verrrrry close to where I live. Just gave her a follow, I can’t wait to read her blog. So cool how word of mouth works, I’m glad I read your post and discovered a great new blog.

Thanks Mark. You’re a good friend to have also. And thanks for helping me get the word out. I’m still trying to notify my dragon awardees.(I think I just invented a word).
