Tears For Fears – Woman In Chains Featuring Oleta Adams

A long, long time ago, my brother went away to college. He left behind many items and gave me explicit instructions to use them as I wish. Over the years, I have. One cluster of items he left behind was a stack of CDs. To this day, he says I stole them. I keep telling […]

Charlie The Unicorn

In my previous post, I mentioned that I was dreaming about unicorns walking to candy mountain. If you had no idea what I was talking about, you’ll want to see this video: Charlie the Unicorn I first saw this video years ago. I love it – it’s such fun humor. What I didn’t know was […]

Walking Along the Salmon River in Connecticut

We have been discovering the most amazing places lately, and believe me, I don’t use the word “amazing” very often. When I hear that word, I usually think of a twenty something responding to a question like, “How to you like your new job?” “Oh, it’s AMAZING.” Or something like, “Do you like the new […]

Oak Tree Falls For Absolutely No Reason

Here’s what I woke up to a few mornings ago: BANG – WHOOOOSSHHHHHH – BOOOOOMMM!!!!! It was about 7am and I was laying there dreaming about unicorns walking to candy mountain. Of course I can’t remember all too well, but what it sounded like was huge shelves of paint cans…thousands of them…falling over in the […]

Saving A Baby Bunny Rabbit

Lately, I have been feeling like a hero. Now, I know that pretty much everyone is a hero these days. You can let someone cross the street in front of you and be considered a hero, but in my case, I may truly be a hero in the animal kingdom. Let me explain. A few […]

Dormant Grass During the Summer Months

Yes folks, it’s that time of year again. Time for your beautiful green grass that you worked so hard on to turn brown, crispy and ugly. As an avid grass watcher and nurturer, I have to confess that it’s a bit nerve racking to watch something like this unfold. I suppose I don’t care. True, […]

Asclepias Curassavica – Bloodflower

The Asclepias Curassavica, or otherwise known as the “Bloodflower” is quickly becoming one of my favorite plants. Not because of its hardiness or anything, but more because of its beauty. The Iris or the Tiger Lily are “tougher” plants and on the same level of attractiveness, but there is something about the Bloodflower that I […]

Airline State Park and Rail Trail

Up until a few weeks ago, I had no idea how cool rail trails were. I also didn’t know how popular they’ve become. We have been walking in the general vicinity of the house we live in for about three years. It’s a great place to walk and we have really awesome trails right in […]
