I have found that if you love life, life will love you back. ~Arthur Rubinstein Happy Valentine’s Day! Facebook today has been filled with pictures of flowers and candy and cards as many have shared their romantic gifts. Such fun to see so many happy posts. But some people don’t like Valentine’s Day because it makes them feel lonely. Perhaps …
Thank all of you who joined in with the fun of my “Name your Caption” game here. You all came up with some great captions for the pictures I posted. I appreciate all the comments and especially appreciate those of you who come check out things here every week. I don’t have a new picture up for a caption, but …
Fish Story – an improbable, boastful tale. So have you ever told a “fish story?” Something about pulling a fish as big as a car out of a lake as small as a pond. Fishermen are known for their exaggerations. They always claim to catch the biggest fish or talk about the one that got away. I don’t go fishing. …
To appreciate the sun, you gotta know what rain is. (J. Cole) Or snow or sleet and hail. Or even the gray winter skies that February can sometimes bring.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary. ~Edgar Allan Poe Do you ever get the mid-winter drearies? I like living in a place that has seasons. I like going from spring to summer to fall and even to winter, except sometimes winter seems a few weeks too long. And winter has a way of hiding the …
Do you like snow? Are you one of those people who wear sweatshirts that say “Let it snow?” Or are you somebody who wouldn’t care if you ever saw another snowflake and wish you were in Florida every time you are bombarbed with those flakes? I sort of like snow as long as it doesn’t overstay its welcome. One nice …
A sister is both your mirror – and your opposite. (Elizabeth Fishel) Do you have a sister? Perhaps if not a biological sister, then a sister of the heart? My sisters are both. We grew up together out on the farm and now are bound by more than memories but also by love. I daresay nobody can know you as …
I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” – Martin Luther King, Jr. Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Jr. Day, …
