Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
It may seem ironic for me to be posting on this subject after my typo-ridden SoCS post on Saturday, but I decided on Friday that this would be my one-liner. Faith and I drove from Connecticut to Pittsburgh to meet-up with my brother, who drove in from Iowa. We hung out for the weekend, went... Continue Reading →
We are fast approaching Labor Day in the US. That marks the end of summer in many ways. Students return to the classroom. School buses return to the highways. We go back to only being able to wear jeans on Fridays, and maybe I'll start writing something on Mondays. For now, let's stick with some... Continue Reading →
It’s Saturday, and Faith is joining David, my brother Bruce, me and Cheryl at the bar for adult beverages and a heated discussion based on Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘co-‘ Find a word that uses ‘co’ as a prefix and use it... Continue Reading →
I had to visit an office at 960 Main Street in Hartford. Anyone who lived near this city prior to this century knows that address – it’s the G Fox building. G. Fox & Co. was the largest privately held department store in the United States in 1965, when it was sold to the May... Continue Reading →

Welcome, my chuckaboos! I warn you in advance that I’m flying by the seat of my pantser pants even more than usual today. My week has been so full of insomnia and interruptions, it’s no wonder Émeraude is looking like a worry wart.
This week’s random reader things:
Great minds think alike. John W. Howell and Jacquie Biggar both left Brass Bells. Christine Robinson left Chignon, and Andrea Stephenson gave us a lovely Aspidistra.
Thanks to Dan Antion for letting me use his photos as I am able for this serial.

I'm sharing a few pictures that didn't fit anywhere else, so they can be here where there's no subject. Just another empty Monday following a good weekend. I hope you all had a nice break, and I hope you're off to a good start on this week. Thanks for visiting here. I'm sticking with the... Continue Reading →
It’s Saturday, time to gather at No Facilities bar, treat ourselves to an adult beverage and a little prompt-driven dialog. Linda G. Hill has given us an opportunity for bonus points with her Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘where.’ Start your post with the word ‘where’...

Part of the Chinese Community Church - close-up of the door. The last day I was in Washington, DC, I had an early meeting in the city.
