Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
A couple of weeks ago, on Saturday, Maddie got a bit of a bonus. We left the house early, to get our walk in before it started raining. I agreed to a long walk, which means around the back of the ball fields in Veterans Park. On the way home, we ran into an older... Continue Reading →
When John Howell and Gwen Plano asked for volunteers who were interested in helping them spread the word about the new book they collaborated on, “The Contract – between heaven and earth” I was eager to help. Gwen sent me a reminder; I filed it away under the heading: “For John Gwen” which subsequently made... Continue Reading →
One problem with keeping track of ideas is that the ones that never come to fruition hang around to remind me that they were bad ideas.

We go out into the yard, her yard, and we find it occupied. Considering what she mostly uses the yard for, I think we... Continue Reading →
As is my habit lately, I am attempting to weave the bar conversation around Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt.
