Growing up, I lived in the kind of neighborhood in Michigan where everyone looked forward to snow days. On these days, after the dads in the neighborhood would finish plowing their driveways and sidewalks, my dad would be putting snow chains on the riding lawn mower for a different reason. All the neighborhood kids would [...]

Bloggers: General Store Key Holders of the Future

2 Comments 16 March 2011

When I was a kid, I made several trips to Crossroads Village; a restored turn of the century town where you could ride an old railroad and visit historic homes and old-town commercial buildings.  My favorite part of the entire town was the general store. I was fascinated by wall to ceiling shelves of merchandise, [...]

EBOCLOUD: Dare to Imagine Life After Facebook

3 Comments 09 March 2011

I purchased the book EBOCLOUD by Rick Moss immediately on recommendation from a friend. There was no way I could resist reading a book with the tagline, “Love Must Evolve” that dares to explore life after Facebook.  If there is such a thing as a fantasy book club, this would be the book I would [...]

It is Sunday morning. A week ago today I was in the middle of my journey and now I am just HOME. I don’t know how else to say this but I liked myself much better as an adventurer.  How do I keep that energy going? For me, it was much easier to appreciate my [...]

It is 5:30 am in Wichita, KS.  I am having a hard time writing right now but I know I need to say something. Actually, I need to say a lot of something. When I woke up early Saturday morning to begin my journey back to Los Angeles there were many things on my mind. [...]

Early to bed, early to rise. I will be going to bed soon, to get up around 2:00 am to hit the road. No matter what route  I select to return to Los Angeles I am going to hit some weather conditions not favorable for driving. I can handle it but I doubt my red [...]

It is Thursday morning. The days in Michigan will be behind me soon.  It is snowing, coming down consistent and strong. On the stereo, KT Tunstall’s “Still a Weirdo.”  And that my friends, pretty much sums it up for me. I have reconnected with friends and family. I have made new friends. I have shared [...]

Sitting at the kitchen counter at my parent’s house, I am in the vortex of slow internet, things that need to get done and not enough time to get to everything. My mom’s surgery is tomorrow. My birthday is also tomorrow. We are trying to get a little holiday cheer in before then and keep [...]
