SUMMER’S END . . .
As giant sunflowers dot the landscape and the smells of autumn begin to invade our nostrils, we say goodbye to summer and hello to my favorite time of the year. Autumn brings reminders of pumpkins, harvesting, hayrides and crunching leaves … Continue reading
A MILLION DREAMS . . .
My dreams leave me wondering about the contents of my brain. They’re vivid, almost real, sometimes a reflection of something memorable and often disconnected. Dreams are things we might wish for, as the world would like us to believe. Walt … Continue reading

ON BECOMING A WISE GUY . . .
This week I’m going to focus on wisdom. Not because I’m so filled with it myself, but because age doesn’t necessarily make us wise. I think some of the greatest words of wisdom have come from children. For example, when I was … Continue reading
I’VE GOT NOTHING . . .
Today is one of those days when I’ve just got nothing. It’s Throwback Thursday, so I could show you a ton of old pictures, but who cares? It’s warmer than it has been for some time, but how is that really important? I … Continue reading
