I have a never-ending love, craving even, of travel. I just got back from a trip and am looking forward to the next. I think of Willie Nelson’s song “On the road again” with great fondness not only because my mother loved it but also because I’m always […]
Ever since I can remember, I have had a rainy birthday. It’s in the midst of spring and supposedly end-of-May flowers will bloom as a result. That’s all well and good but I like the sun and flowers make me sneeze. Admittedly, there have been days where it […]
I have a lot of wanderlust. I’ve been talking about it non-stop for weeks. I was at a local coalition meeting recently where I proudly noted I try to go to at least two countries a year. I wish I could do more but my son’s school schedule alongside […]

Ungrateful overlords Seek to rule with no vision Yet they bear upon Ungrateful overlords Falsely tout their destiny Only whine and fine Ungrateful overlords Once upon a time braved truths Now they are all shine Long live true pioneers Who build others up in their place It’s time […]
