Owl Canon is a geological feature known as a wind gap.
If you stand in the canon as the wind is blowing you quickly understand the term.
This wind gap is one of the four wind gaps that cuts through the western hog-back
that defines Hook and Moore Glade. Hook and Moore Glade is the 'valley' north of
Ted's Place which Highway 287 goes through.

Charles Roberts named this wind gap "Owl Canon" in the late summer of 1879.
Near the eastern exit of this wind gap, there was a Limestone mining (quarrying) community, about 42 houses, and a general store.

At first, man was enslaved by the gods.
But he broke their chains.
Then he was enslaved by the kings.
But he broke their chains.
He was enslaved by his birth, by his kin, by his race.
But he broke their chains.
He declared to all his brothers that a man has rights which neither god nor king nor other men can take away from him, no matter what their number, for his is the right of man, and there is no right on earth above this right.
And he stood on the threshold of freedom for which the blood of the centuries behind him had been spilled.”

The state’s biggest weapon against us all is the huge mainstream media’s propaganda machine, which has the mission of taming the throngs of common men through fearmongering, lies, deceit, and division.
Everything we have,
everything we use,

Having a college degree does not make you smarter than anyone else.
Common Sense does not come with a degree.
Common sense is the ability to make good judgments and to behave in a practical and sensible way.

I Think That There Shall Never Be An Ignoramus Just Like Me,
Who Roams The Hills Throughout The Day,
To Pick Up Rocks That Do Not Pay.
For There's One Thing That I've Been Told
I Take The Rocks And Leave The Gold.
O'er Deserts Wild Or Mountains Blue
I Search For Rocks Of Varied Hue.
A Hundred Pounds Or More I Pack.
With Blistered Feet And Aching Back.
And After This Is Said And Done
I Cannot Name A Single One.
I Pick Up Rocks Where E're I Go
The Reason Why I Do Not Know.
For Rocks Are Found By Fools Like Me
Where God Intended Them To Be.
