It's good to see you. Come on in, leave your shoes in the hallway, we've got fire on the stove preparing lunch for later. In the meantime, browse the bookshelves and plunk down on the sofa with one, or pick out some tunes from the music library or come in to the kitchen to help with the cooking. Our special blend of tea is steeping and will be right up.


June 12 is the 163nd day of the year. There are 202 days left.
Today's number is 12

On June 11, 1920, during the Republican National Convention the Party leaders gathered in a room at the Blackstone Hotel to choose their candidate for President. As a result, the A.P. coined the phrase "smoke filled room".
Sit-a-while
on swinging porch
where tin-dippers and
sweet water
in cool touches
meet lips
from hand dug wells.
Good morning good people!

Morning, I am always surprised how long the days can be this time of year. The mixture of enjoying the day, taking care of today's needs, remembering the challenges of the past, preparing for the known future and trying to anticipate the unknown.
