A pink flamingo on top of a makeshift Christmas tree, wearing a set of miniature pearls. Christmas is such a mixed bag of tricks, and then it's over! Doing something fun with the people you love seems to be the very best thing to do. May you find yourself in…

Okay, it's after midnight and I'm still here. No black comets or super volcanos that I know of. I'm still here, I can see my hands on the keyboard and the rim of my cheater glasses, so it's still me in here. Is there anybody else here? Klesha is here, anyone…

My first car, a 1968 VW Beatle, which, according to the Car Talk guys, Click and Clack, is less safe than the least safe car manufactured today. (It was great in the snow though!) My point is once again to be extra careful on the road. People are distracted and stressed and…

If the world is coming to an end in a couple of days, do you have your ducks in a row? What can that possibly mean if it all ends? After all, don't you always do the best that you can on any given day? So relax, either it will…

Safe enough to sleep wherever exhaustion steals you away and to know that you are surrounded by family and friends. Faith that you are loved and accepted for who you are and that you can love like that too, without expectations. And a heart big enough to see the blessings wrapped…

The British Night Watch brings lots of color and history to St. Augustine. Anywhere you look, you might see someone in period dress that is so authentic you feel that you have entered the twilight zone. My favorite accessory is the beer stein on the belt. That is a tradition that we…

If I were a dolphin I would have to make a lot of changes – move much more quickly, eat a steady diet of fish (without the taco!) talk more, laugh more, and play more everyday! I'd have to get rid of ALL of my things and stop worrying about anything! Hmmmmmmmm……
