Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
Continuing the theme I started on Monday, I have a few more small animal photos to share. Some are the typical “I think this is a cute photo” photos. Some are attempts by me to achieve an artistic effect. What can I say, I keep trying. A couple of them are evidence. After years of... Continue Reading →
Yes, but a short one. Today is the second time I’ve published six blog posts in a row. It’s really not my style, and Maddie thinks I need to spend more time walking, sitting or lying on the couch with her. So, I’m going to skip the usual, kinda-sorta-somewhat-serious thing that I try to do... Continue Reading →
Maddie likes her routine. When I travel, my part of her routine is disrupted, and she lets me know that I have to get back in the groove as soon as I return. That includes our weekend walks, even if it’s foggy with a chance of drizzle. We might be able to skip a crummy... Continue Reading →
In response to Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday, the voices in my head will be speaking on my behalf today. Yeah, we’re speaking, ‘cuz you got nothin.

“Um, excuse me…this is a dog, you know” Monday and Tuesday gave us a break from almost a week of hot – 90°f (32.2°c) – days. Monday brought some heavy rain, but yesterday was just a cool, cloudy day. Maddie looked at me as if to say “it’s not too hot to sit outside today”... Continue Reading →

Our yard has become a bit of an animal maternity ward. We got baby squirrels, baby chipmunks, baby birds and baby bunnies. Several... Continue Reading →
I’m sure by now most of my regular readers know that my weekend routine includes a walk with Maddie. You’re also aware that I take as many photos as the dog will allow. What you may not know is that I like to imagine the conversations the birds and squirrels might be having. If that... Continue Reading →
While you might be expecting an intricately woven story of a holiday weekend…I got nothing. That’s not entirely true, but it’s Sunday. It’s Easter. And, due to the distractions mentioned in the title, I don’t have time to write my way around the pictures I was planning to share. Don’t all sigh in relief at... Continue Reading →
Any man, woman, child, cat, dog, bird or rodent in New England will tell you that March never gave us anything close to spring weather. I guess those two warm days we had at the end of February constitute “in like a lamb” but it’s up to April to deliver the warmth and beauty of... Continue Reading →
