We’re home again. Papa and I had a smooth ride home from Perrysburg, Ohio Sunday morning. The weather forecasts weren’t pretty and even though the ride home was short, we were concerned. When we reached the State line, radio reported that I-75 had been reopened at the Rouge River Bridge. We just looked at each … Read more
Today is an early Friday for Granny. If I just had everything done. D1 and GS2 are leaving at noon, to go to the Great Lakes Navel Training Center for GS1’s basic graduation. They are joining up with D2 and her family on the way. Papa and I have some other plans for the weekend, … Read more
Papa and I had an uneventful trip to the area, but it is a long haul, longer each year. The beach is beautiful, and we saw a dolphin near shore feeding on Wednesday. The bluegrass show put on by Adams and Anderson has been enjoyable for Papa and I. Yesterday, we had an experience … Read more

Papa and I just bought ourselves a couple of Christmas presents. Now it’s real hard for either of us to think of something we need. I often think the key to happy living is being able to separate what you need from what you want in a very systematic and intellectual way. You’ll always be … Read more
So, morning again. Papa and I retire at 10 p.m., day in and day out. Last night was a little different. Tickets went on sale for the Southern Ohio Indoor Music Festival, to be held in Wilmington Ohio on March 30 and 31, 2007. According to the website, I could buy on-line beginning at 12:01 … Read more
Man, more rain. It’s feast or famine. Since most of the garden dried up because I couldn’t stay home long enough to water it, the rain isn’t helping now. I wrote a while ago about Blue Monday, perhaps I cover all the days in due time. Today it’s shop, fix Uncle Jerry’s web page, clean … Read more
