Tying Things Up & Coming Attractions

My opening post this morning was made from the 'safety' of my bed. Sometimes words and quotes come to me at night, and I email them to myself. Last night... well at about 7AM, which is early for me/us... I posted it here. Oh, well! We have an on again, off again rain that will send most of the... Sign in to see full entry.

Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

We are home again, and I can't speak for the wife, but I am very tired! I am going to think that we walked at least twelve miles or more today, plus driving seventy miles or more. This morning, I caught this creature climbing up the hillside to see what we were doing. I barely caught him as he was... Sign in to see full entry.

We are out and about this morning, but we will be home about 1PM EST. Here is a thought to chew on: Never blame someone else for the road you are on. That's your own asphalt you are laying down as you go. Sign in to see full entry.

As I explain in my photo entry this morning, we got up early to get some medications I needed over in the Soo. With the big Fourth of July influx already tripling the number of visitors of last week, it was no surprise to see that north-bound traffic coming through Newberry was already crazy at 7...

The Touch (With Audio) Chapter Eight

November 1975 Well over two months after the people began to come to the base, the people still came. Not in the numbers that had initially come, but again, they came. Each time they explained that they were merely a caring shoulder, an open ear, and not healers. They came because others had told... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. Lisa has the next four days off, so who knows what lays ahead. The weekend looks to be headed from yesterday's high of 64 to a high of 93 on Sunday. Joy! It's been 'odd' with her being gone so much of the time lately, and it will be nice to be 'us' again. Habits, ya know. I don't know... Sign in to see full entry.

A lot of things on my mind today. Some good and some not. The photo I posted a few minutes ago reminded me of what I am leaving. Of course, I have a thousand or more winter photos that remind of why I want to go, but the immense beauty and expanse of the Upper Peninsula will always be in me. The... Sign in to see full entry.

I apologize about being in a crabby mood yesterday, but that email irritated me. People have a lot more in common than they have differences if we but stop to see them. It didn't help that Lisa had left early to do the volunteer thing. It wasn't the fact that she wasn't there as much as I missed our... Sign in to see full entry.
