Cougars Spotted.

Interesting story, even if it is from the Detroit 'Free Press.' More cougars are being sighted here in the UP as this story confirms. I have seen a few here and there, but never real close up. When it comes to hurting and or hunting humans, these creatures are right up there with moose in my book.... Sign in to see full entry.

Another nice day looks to be at hand. A high around 78 is predicted. As soon as I opened the front door, all three dogs went out to take up stations to watch the kids walk by. I keep three rugs out there spread around my rocking chair, and each dog claims one. It's taken them close to two ears to... Sign in to see full entry.

I went away early this afternoon with every intention of being back home by mid to late afternoon. So much for that thought. Darkness was almost on us by the time I rolled back into the driveway. I had gone down to the Lake Michigan shoreline to meet some friends and spent the day just walking.... Sign in to see full entry.

Let me count the days... four more race nights... and it can't be over quick enough. 'Someone' uprooted about forty foot of my cable that feeds video from one tower roof to the other roof that ends up in my broadcasting office.

It's weird. I finished two stories of hugely different in length,and yet they finish one day apart. 'I Remember Judy' is done. I will probably work on a rewrite of another story starting tomorrow, but this weekend is going to be confusing. I have to go down state early tomorrow morning to fix some...

My 'super-duper Grammar Guru' has me almost finshed up. As I explained earlier somewhere here, she is areal tight on a lot of things most readers aren't even aware were 'rules.' As I recall, we tossed water ballons on kids like her! LOL... (Just joking.) About an hour ago, she sent me another 8500... Sign in to see full entry.

I just posted the penultimate post in my book about my wife. As I read it again, it made me wistful as a small wave of grief swept over me... again. Then I got toward the end of it and read the last three paragraphs where I quoted and then linked the song to which I referred. In every way and... Sign in to see full entry.

While I wait for my grammar guru to send me back the last half of my story, I've begun to lay it into ebook format. It's always the first ten percent of a story that sets the tone in an ebook. I've received and corrected roughly the first 40% of the story, but the entire story is laid in. What I am... Sign in to see full entry.

As the Rascals sang back in 1968, ' It's A Beautiful Morning! ' Or at least the start of it will be. I am getting multiple notices that we have about twelve to eighteen hours of heavy rain and thunderstorms rolling in about 3PM. Tis the season. I have to run over to the hospital lab to get my...
