Finally usual winter weather in temperatures and cloud cover. Although for that matter, these past two weeks have been more like growing up in New England and living in Moscow, ID, the one winter. Long stretches of grey days that meld into one another. Watching the squirrels has been entertaining to say the least. They [...]

Perhaps an attempt at regular entries into the journal. I keep up the Labyrinth blog quite well. We’ll see. Blustery weather blew in overnight. Stars out in the morning were soon swept away as low level clouds rushed in from the northwest. The bunnies were sketched out with the wind. Chickens wanted out. Birds blew [...]

Wind

Not many creatures like the wind. The bunnies get totally sketched out, the chickens come inside, turkeys vanished and even the English sparrows have given up feeding. One exception is the downy woodpecker hanging on to the swinging suet. Nice color has fallen. An odd day, indeed. I will say, though, that in late afternoon [...]

“1080 – Three revolutions,” stated Richard matter-of-factly. So, the labyrinth has taken its name from this astute observation of the relationship of our address and math. Thanks to Richard of Denville. We moved into our new home March 2010 and watched for the better part of the year how we moved through our spaces. We [...]

Saturday, July 17 – Yeah! Deck finished! One more major project and then done for a while. Hot, but the car kept Carol Gorman and me cool to and from IC for the Book City Festival. She guided me right in to a great parking place. “I grew up in IC, remember?” And, as we [...]

July 10 – day dawned nicely. I headed out to Galena, IL, about 8:10. Nice to be on the road. Shopped Poopsies while waiting for Sue Hrobar to come. Something about a long time friend that eases visiting. How do we get lost in small towns? We had to move the cars after three hours [...]

Go to the bottom of each day to read a new day. Last week was “bass ackwards” this is just “awkward” to find the right date! How wonderful to included in the continuing friendships, to learn about our adult children’s lives and to encourage them as they seek their way. After breakfast they took off [...]
Week Two – “bass ackwards” entries.

Saturday: Another storm roared through about midnight Friday. Ugh. Hot and humid today. Breakfast with Carly, Karissa, and Nancy at Croissant du Jour. Then, Tracy and I took in a few garage/tag sales. I’m looking for specific items to round out furniture for the house. This will take some looking. But, I did re-acquaint myself [...]
