Challenge Explained

I made a statement above today's episode saying this was becoming a challenge. When I started this story, it was nothing but an idea that flashed into my head. I had no outline... just the idea... but all of my life, I've done better when under pressure. The story is slowly making a pivot to take us... Sign in to see full entry.

This is getting to be a challenge.

One chapter a day until done. Whew! The Drawer Nobody Cataloged The Historical Society meeting had ended almost thirty minutes earlier, yet Professor Harold Benton still hadn’t gone home. Thomas found him kneeling beside three battered wooden crates near the back of the fellowship hall. The audience... Sign in to see full entry.

The Woman Who Remembered the Wrong Road

It's supposed to be a decent day here, with temps staying about 85... that's nice and cool after a few weeks in the mid-90s. I've been neglecting my backyard, and the grass has absolutely taken off. It's easily 14" tall, and that invites mosquitoes! I don't need them, so I am going to do some mowing... Sign in to see full entry.

The old highway was nearly empty, the pavement still... Sign in to see full entry.

Yes, I Do!

Good morning. I forgot tp mention that yesterday was our sixth anniversary. I wish we could have gone back the the banks of the Tahquamenon River where we were married, but we went out for an early dinner and spent about 30 minutes dancing.

Finally... Darn Lightning!

The weather here has been crazy today. I've gone through months without seeing that much lightning. I've lost two computers to lightning in the last 16 months, and I don't want to break in a new one. I usually will buy a new computer, put it on the desk next to my old one, and begin to break it in... Sign in to see full entry.
