I just posted the opening of a new story. This one is gonna hurt. It will hurt me more than it does you, but I hope it will move you as well. Hell, just posting it has caused my eyes to well up. I'm writing and posting this to help myself 'get back to normal.' I have been so emotionally lost for so... Sign in to see full entry.

Yeah! I started my YT feed this morning, and the first song out of the box was Chuck Mangione's " Feels So Good! " What a lovely way to start the day. I was a cornet player, now frequently and improperly called a trumpet - there is a big difference between the two- all the way through high school... Sign in to see full entry.

A very productive day. Despite the rain, Kagan I went down to the rifle range and played with our pistols. If you don't use them on a regular basis, when it become necessary to use them, you might hesitate at a critical moment. I hope to never have to shoot at a man, wolf, coyote, bear, or a moose,...

Wow! It is raining like crazy outside and the temps are a pleasant 68 right now. That's pretty close to perfect for me. My smallest dog, Hannah, goes out just long enough to 'do her thing,' and then she heads inside. Brutus, my Boxer, doesn't mind the rain, but he isn't into frolicking in it....

While looking for a good place for Kagan to do some fishing without three dozen people around the shoreline, we found a new lake (new to me) just on the south end of Newberry. I had a few other things going, so I hadn't brought my Nikon, but after looking at it from the car, I'll fix that tomorrow.... Sign in to see full entry.
We've got another 88+ degree day ahead so a heavy physical day isn't much a possibility. I know of a few places we might be able to flog the waters in the shade, so we might give that a try. I like to fish, but I no longer can eat fish, so it's basically an exercise to release stress. The dogs are... Sign in to see full entry.

Interesting day today. It was hot, but we spent most of the day outside. Kagan was beating the waters, pretending to fish, and I played with my dogs, pretending to be teaching them something. A good day was had by all. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: No fish were harmed today, but that's just fine, ya know?... Sign in to see full entry.
I was up quite late last night talking with my friend, Kagan. He's been in his kind of isolation and being up here is a 'freeing' event. I took him to four different places to fish. He didn't catch anything, but sometimes hooking a fish isn't the point. As I was almost finishing Bruce's story, he... Sign in to see full entry.

As I feared, I still haven't been able to close 'Intedimensional.' If it matters, the last chapter is underway. It is titled 'Cleanup.' That chapter will clean up matters from all points of view. After that, I'll post my own closing thoughts. Believable or not, this story has been both a lot of fun... Sign in to see full entry.
I got hung up doing some work for a neighbor lady who has been heavily affected by the 90+ temps we have had the past few days. I will be posting more of 'Interdimensional' about 10PM EST tonight. I've already reached the point of no return, and am working on 'settling affairs.' I just need to... Sign in to see full entry.
