On our younger daughter's former piece of property, there was a trail through the woods that we would occasionally walk. It was a fairly short circuit of perhaps a quarter mile. Pine needles and hardwood leaves padded the ground. The smell of dec...

Bullion is a Welsh pony that we figure is over 25 years old. He's a crotchety old cuss and doesn't let any other animals around during feeding times except the chickens. They aren't afraid of him and are quick enough to get out if the way when he sta...

Tuesday Gammy told me that Fender guitar had a 3-month free trial of their instructional website (for the first 100k people to join). Free? Sounds good to me. I grabbed my flat top and sat down to register. We've got the quarantine going on here...

I am not the prolific writer that I'd like to be. That, however, is my own fault. I just don't take the time to sit down and write. There are authors that I follow that post two, three or more times per day. I seem to have difficulty with more than o...

The above came across both my minds and gab feeds in the last day or so. A rapper in the UK of whom I have never heard was suspended on Twitter for merely responding to a tweet with "OK dude..." The crux of the story is this: @ZubyMusic and @EmilyGo...

Gammy was not too happy with me Saturday afternoon. We were headed to the edge of the Ozarks to see the grandkids. They live about 2-1/2 hours away. After hitting a grocery store in St. Louis, we headed west. I was planning on stopping in Hillsboro a...
