Ghosts
I was a tremendous Bruce Springsteen fan back in the 1970’s. From the time Born To Run was released in 1975, I was hooked. I attended concerts in local small venues before he became so well known, and then attended concerts (a few times a week sometimes), driving with the guy I was dating at […]

A Summer Unlike Others
This summer has been a different one compared to years past. I suppose everything is different this year, and I have come to accept that. With acceptance I have learned not to expect life to be as I knew it, setting myself up for disappointment, but rather to find new ways to find contentment during […]

It’s Still Your Birthday, Even if You’re Gone
A post from the archives, posting it again in memory of my brother. Today is my brother’s birthday. Or it would have been his birthday were he still alive, though I feel that just because he is gone does not make August 6th no longer his birthday. His age will forever remain at 54, but […]

The Weekly Smile
The skies overhead during my morning walk/run today made me smile. There seemed to be so much open sky every time I looked up, with the clouds scattered across it.
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge:Anything To Do With Boats
It’s summer which makes me think of childhood, summers spent with my grandparents, and my grandfather’s boat. We would head out early in the morning, onto the Long Island Sound waters. My grandfather, father and uncles, me, my sister and brother. My Uncles loved to fish. It was quite an adventure for 10 year old […]

Foxy Loxy
I live in a suburb in New Jersey, tree lined streets with rows of houses. It is just outside New York City, not the “country” which lies a few hundred miles north. No large expanses of undeveloped land, or forests. When I was growing up a neighbor who had lived in town from the time […]
