Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
I know, the title sounds like a scam. It’s not, it’s for real, and it’s coming to the Hartford, Connecticut neighborhoods that need it the most. The story below is all excerpted from an article in the Hartford Courant. Free, citywide Wi-Fi is coming to Hartford through a public-private partnership between the city, Dalio Education...

Last week, I posted what I considered the last of my doors from Suffield, CT. I replied to a comment (somewhere, I can’t find it) that I really need to get out for another doorscursion. Well, I have to tell you, that did not happen. Since publishing last Thursday’s post, it hasn’t been below 92°f... Continue Reading →
I have been doing the grocery shopping since March, and I think I might be getting the hang of it. It’s been a while since I bought something on sale, only to find its you-need-to-eat-this-by date is tomorrow at 6:00 am. I almost know where everything is in the three stores I visit, except Target... Continue Reading →
Installed isn’t really the right word but I never like it when titles span more than one line, so I didn’t want to go with “I moved the bookcase into its final location.” If you’re not familiar with this project, it began almost two months ago.

I have run through most of the doors from my doorscursion into Suffield, CT. I still have lots of locations left, but I don’t know much about them. So, I give you a gallery of interesting looking buildings and doors that I wish I new more about. What I do know is in the captions.... Continue Reading →
I’m taking advantage of the fact that the Editor has Wednesdays off. I’m not sure she would agree with the sentiment suggested by the title. We have been mired in a heat wave since mid-June, and I don’t see an opportunity to wait until things cool down to work on the projects I need to... Continue Reading →
If you’re not a fan of Do-it-Yourself projects, you can skip to the photos, glance at the non-project-related ones and move on. Have a nice day. One of my projects that a few people have been asking about is the facelift I am giving our garden shed. I’ve been getting things ready, hoping to start... Continue Reading →
It’s Saturday and it’s time to gather at the bar, behind a mask, six feet from our server and share an adult beverage with a friend as we try to work Linda G. Hill’s wonderful Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt into our conversation. What does Linda have for us today? “Your Friday prompt for Stream... Continue Reading →
If you have been following this blog for any amount of time, you knew this post was coming. You know that I couldn’t spend time walking around a wonderful place like Old Sturbridge Village without taking pictures of doors. In fact, if you’ve been following No Facilities for a long time, you know that I’ve... Continue Reading →
