My books are like water; those of the great geniuses are wine. (Fortunately) everybody drinks water. ~Mark Twain I love books. I’ve had a love affair with books ever since I learned to read and even more so, after I learned to write. Well, I’m not sure I ever actually learned to write. I just started putting one word after …
Remember that Time…

Caption Giveaway Contest Picture 3
Thank you all so much for playing my caption game. It’s fun to read all your imagined captions. Ola and Kathleen nailed what really happened on the day I took that picture with their spider captions.

Neighborhood Walking
Walking is man’s best medicine. ~Hippocrates If you are one of my Facebook buddies, you know I enjoy walking. It’s exercise. It’s nature searching. It’s sharing. Most of the time I walk alone.
