Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
It’s time for Linda G. Hill’s double-stuff Saturday, where Stream of Consciousness Saturday meets Just Jot January and we’re left with: “Your prompt for #JusJoJan and Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: ‘last call.’ Talk about the enterprise (sales or service) conducted by the last phone call you received from a business you’re not associated with...

As I was driving away from the Connecticut River Museum a few weeks ago, I spied something few people see when visiting Essex – available parking spaces on Main St. Essex is a small, mostly residential community with ample attractions to bring a crowd of visitors to Main St. The street is lined with restaurants...

I’m thinking about trains this week. There have been several articles in our local papers about how the relatively new Connecticut Railroad’s Hartford Line has exceeded expectations and reached the One Million Passenger mark well ahead of schedule.

JusJoJan Today's Just Jot January prompt from Ritu through Linda unites two of the published authors I follow in a fun prompt: While I am not a published author, blogging in this community has brought me close to several authors, and I have enjoyed that experience very much. I appreciate what I have learned about... Continue Reading →
It’s Saturday and we’ve retreated to the bar to enjoy some civilized conversation and to attempt to deal with Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt, which is also for her Just Jot January prompt (for today). The prompt Linda has given us requires a bit of reorganization from the normal No Facilities approach.... Continue Reading →
