Sunseekers of the world unite!
Summer is finally here following a Spring that was quite wobbly, a season that left me weary as we endured odd temps, endless windy days and rain. The skies were often gloomy and this could not always be blamed on … Continue reading

Gosling-palooza!
They were coming right at me, a passel of goslings, with their parents bringing up the rear! Yikes! I had no time to hide, or even duck into my car to escape them. Well, truth be told, there were no … Continue reading

Taking a pink pause …
Today’s post is part two of three parts about a long walk taken April 24th at three different venues. The highlight of the entire day was where I began my excursion, at Ford Field Park, as I pulled into a … Continue reading

On the road again …
… well technically I was just leaving the Trapper’s Run Trail, bopping across the parking lot and heading toward the Cherry Island Trail, which, thankfully, would provide some very welcome shade, at least for 75% of the trail anyway. This … Continue reading

Seizing the moment, day by day .…
I continue to bemoan the funky weather, which has not been stellar for daily walks at Council Point Park and there have been few long excursions either. Recently, two severe weather outbreaks in our state brought 11 tornadoes over two … Continue reading

Great EGGS-pectations!
Mother’s Day is always a time of reflection for me – today’s post will be a mini time travel. I weighed a mere 4 pounds, 11 ounces (2.13 kilograms) when I was born, so my parents were surprised when I … Continue reading
