Snow day

It’s a very nice day to stay home, stay inside, lounge, drink coffee and make plans with my wife for the year.

Wintering the Weather

I know, it’s the other way around but sometimes having  moments of lysdexia can be advantaged.

My budding Picasso wannabe grandson created a perfect picture which could describe theContinue reading “Wintering the Weather”

To really see, one has to thread their vision into every crevice of sight as far as possible otherwise all that is seen is the forest. One of our deer hunting tales (true story) tells onContinue reading “Seen in the woods”

I Wish

“Grandpa, can we have another adventure tomorrow?” I wish we could have a pause button on time. Took the boys fishing again without the success of the former fishing trip. It was still an adventure. more of a snake and spider adventure from the bank. The boys left several hooks and bobbers in the nearbyContinue reading “I Wish”
