It always puts a smile on my face when I make the last post of the night these days. This is one of those 'soul-baring,' 'sappy love crap' posts I used to make before Judy passed. Bear with me, please. I used to stay up until 1, sometimes even 2 AM every night, but now I have a reason to shut down... Sign in to see full entry.
Here's an idea to help and challenge me. I need a story idea from the 'peanut gallery' here - one in the 'romance' genre and one in a murder genre. Give me a 100 to 400 word outline of the main plot idea with an idea of where the story is going, and then let me see where I can take it. Actually,... Sign in to see full entry.
Some Plain Talk
As I wrote last night, we talked about a lot of things last night after I joined 'everyone' in bed. One of the things that no one ever wants to talk about was our main topic, but it was one everyone should talk about. Funeral plans. Fortunately, when Judy passed, she and I had already talked it...

Behind This Door...
This won't happen again, so I'm posting these before she changes her mind. This was Lisa in early 2019 when we first reunited. We were at a fund raising party for one of her friends. This was earlier this spring when we were near Grand Marais. The baseball hat is from the West Michigan Whitecaps,... Sign in to see full entry.
Well, after a long day of travel and talk (and a quick swim for one of us!), we are gonna call it a night. We have a number of things that we want to talk over, so I'll still be available by email. Inbound weekend traffic is already heavy, so tomorrow through Sunday will be a stay close to home... Sign in to see full entry.
Who's That Lady?
We left to visit Kitch-iti-kipi, but a friend of mine from downstate told me that the place was backed up with visitors. It's a free attraction, so we can go another day. Sooooo, we went to the Superior shores. A big storm was moving in fast, so we left for warmer places. Before you see this photo... Sign in to see full entry.
LOL. We are at Lake Superior and when I get home, I have a photo of Lisa that I'm going to post. She may kill me, but I like it. Sign in to see full entry.
Other than Buster waking me up at 4AM for reasons unknown, I slept like a log last night. Lisa is in her office sending out a few emails to her friends downstate, and the dogs are playing in the backyard. It's going to be a nice day in the UP today with a high of 73. We intend to head over to... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Day Along Mama Superior
We went just to the west of Grand Marias (almost 30 miles due north of our house) and spent sometime just holding hands and watching people hunt for agates along the shore. I didn't intend to get this man in the shot, he just kinda 'wandered in.' I couldn't take Judy to many of these sights due to... Sign in to see full entry.
Hunting The Over Abundant 'Gerund'
Definitely cooler today. Low last night was 41 with the high at 63. As they always said on the HBO series, 'Game of Thrones,' *Winter is Coming!* Lisa didn't believe me that it would begin to turn cold so early. I've got a new story cooking, but I'm allowing it to stew in my brain for a while... Sign in to see full entry.
