I read this at THE WEEK and thought I’d pass it on. When was the last time you took a full weeks vacation (and went somewhere) let alone 2 weeks.
The great American vacation is slipping away. The number of Americans taking off from work for less than a full week at a time has more [...]

Hi everyone, time again for the Willie Nelson, ‘On the Road Again’ song. We’re leaving quite early tomorrow morning for the long drive to North Carolina to visit daughter/family/ and Cora This will be our last visit in their NC home since they are moving back east next month. For any of you [...]
I feel like singing, “On The Road Again” by Willie Nelson. I’m leaving this morning and driving out to DC. Over the weekend we will go down to NC to visit little Cora and of course Daughter and S-I-L, but granddaughter takes top billing. This is the longest I’ve gone without seeing her since birth. [...]

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to update my blog. While away for Christmas I had very little computer time and didn’t want to waste a minute with Cora’s first Christmas. What a joy it was to see a little one again, her eyes light up with wonderment and excitement on Christmas morning. Needless [...]
I have certainly neglected this blog, but in my defense I have done so much traveling since my last post and computer access was not always possible. How about a brief chronological order of where I’ve been and what I’ve seen?
Nov.21, I leave Michigan for the 8.5 hour drive to DC…..me and Poco on the [...]

From snow in Michigan, to 70’s in Texas, cold and no snow in DC, and chilly in North Carolina. This will be [...]

Sorry for my absence but boy what a week it was! The end to the nastiest election I have seen in my lifetime. We had a few days to bask in the victory of President Elect Obama, and watch the fallout from the GOP. I was surprised that Sarah Palin’s plane hadn’t even hit cruising [...]
Seems I haven’t done much blogging lately due to road trips. But then again isn’t that what summers are all about? My trip to Ohio was wonderful, I got to spend time with my Father, Brother and S-I-L and of course my best friend Mary Jane. I even managed to squeeze in a visit with [...]
I feel like I am always saying, “On the road Again”, (Willie Nelson). Leaving in the morning for Ohio to visit my 81 year old Father/family/and best friend from childhood Mary Jane. How many of us can say they are still best buds with their childhood friend? Through all the moves, different states, ups [...]

To my readers, that is if I have any left. First of all I must apologize for my absence, not even a quick post saying I’m still here just very busy. What can I say other than sometimes life gets in the way of blogging and sometimes the human soul needs a break to re-think [...]
