beach – Let's Have Another Piece of Pie

In The Middle

It’s been ten years now since we moved from the east coast to The Middle. All but the last four and a half years were in the South Kansas City area and the current in a quaint town about an hour outside of KC. I finally feel at home. The USA is vast, miles wiseContinue reading “In The Middle”

The Beach – Part IX – MY Scottish Journey

We hopped yet another train from Waverley Station, Edinburgh, Scotland. This one was a day trip, just a short distance north-east to the lovely beach town of North Berwick, Scotland. As we alighted the train an excitement met me, face-to-face. I love beach towns. The more quaint, the better. As we walked down the hill,Continue reading “The Beach – Part IX – MY Scottish Journey”

Water

I had the gift of growing up near an ocean. It both terrifies and soothes me. I’m not afraid to jump in or go on a boat far from shore where land is no longer in site. However, if I let my mind, I can feel a bit of a fear or panic want toContinue reading “Water”

Root Beer Lake – My Memories of The Jersey Shore

South Jersey, as it is known, has a strange geographical “thing” going on. Doesn’t that sound professional? I don’t know what to call it and I really do not care what it is suppose to be termed.

Tradition, Tradition! – My Memories of The Jersey Shore

Summer at the Jersey Shore can be a blast. I loved growing up there. And as any well raised child of the north east in the 1950s and 60s you learned what to wear and what not to wear. At least in our household. My mom cared how she looked when she left the house.Continue reading “Tradition, Tradition! – My Memories of The Jersey Shore”

Life’s Twists and Turns

It’s funny how our lives can be moving along in a nice steady stream and we think we know how things will go and what we will do. Then along comes a twist. One you didn’t see coming. Sometimes they are hard and hurtful but sometimes they are nice and kind and surprising. I wantContinue reading “Life’s Twists and Turns”

iHaveAnOpinion

I have been the proud owner of an iPhone since the end of 2008. I started with the 3G. Loved that phone. I was convinced that Apple made that phone for me. I dropped my friend, face down, on a ceramic tile floor. So sad. I can still see her cracked and oozing face. IContinue reading “iHaveAnOpinion”

Road Trip!

Two weeks ago my husband and I plopped ourselves in the back seat of our son’s car. Road Trip! We were heading to the east coast, a two day drive. We were greeted with, “Are you ready? Let’s go!”, spoken by our lovely two year old grand daughter, Lucy. She was so excited. Of courseContinue reading “Road Trip!”
