Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
I spent a couple of days near Boston, MA this week, but due to some room availability problems, my two nights had to be split across two hotels. The first night, I stayed in Woburn (that’s pronounced woo-burn – don’t ask me why). Then I moved up to Burlington. As often happens, there was a... Continue Reading →
We start on a sad Note: Yesterday, A WWII B-17 (bomber) flying with the Wings of Freedom Tour, crashed while trying to make an emergency landing at Bradley International Airport (BDL). BDL is about two miles from our house. As of the time I am writing this, 7 people have died and at least 9... Continue Reading →
If you follow this blog, you knew this was coming. I have been very busy this week, so I’m going to let the captions speak for the doors. The doors are part of Norm Frampton’s fun weekly blogfest known as Thursday Doors. Norm’s worldwide network of door lovers scans the planet for interesting doors and... Continue Reading →
This is a Thursday Doors post (I didn’t think the hashtag would fit in the title without causing it to wrap). It’s also a riverboat post, and if that makes you think of “The Delta Pearl,” Teagan Geneviene’s current serial story, well, there is a connection. There’s also a connection to my youth. I’ll get...

Two things are happening this week that caused me to bring a not-exactly-new collection of doors to the festival. One, work is driving me crazy. Two, I love these barns! To be clear, these are all new photos. They’re just new photos of barns, some of which you’ve no doubt seen before. Still, there’s a... Continue Reading →

Despite the potential for rolling or rising eyes, the Strip is mainly a retail area, featuring Pittsburgh paraphernalia i.e. Steelers, Pirates and Penguin gear, and food. I’m going to...

They are milling and paving the highway I use to get to work in the morning, and the entrance ramp that I use is closed. The highway leads to two of the three bridges I can use to cross the Connecticut River, so I’ve been taking an alternate route. It isn’t the treasure trove of... Continue Reading →
According to the blog calendar, I was on vacation from last #ThursdayDoors until this #1LinerWeds. Although I took a few door photos while in Pittsburgh, I know I have some I’ve used before. I have to sort those out and do a little research. Therefore, today’s doors are borrowed from others, but they all come... 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 →
