Like many cities, we all have our favorite “go to” places to eat. They may not be healthy but they sure do deliver when it comes to taste and long time memories. Such is the case with Johnnie’s Pastrami. I wish you could smell this. For those of you that currently live near by…
I’m Leaving On A Jet Plane
2014 is going to be an adventure…and it starts this spring. Guess where this is located? Here are some clues…It’s the Norfolk Hotel. No, not Virginia, not Nebraska, and not Arkansas. No, not a quaint city in France. I will be having lunch here one day. Nope, not the Florida Everglades. I may…
The Inn on Newfound Lake
I have 100’s of pictures from my favorite place, The Inn on Newfound Lake, in Bridgewater, New Hampshire. My friends will be celebrating 20 years of ownership this coming February. In the past 5 years I have visited 12 times!! This is just a sampling of the seasons. Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall…All you’ve got…
The Last Week of 2013
Oh no, not another year over already! While thinking back on the events of 2013, I have much to be grateful for. I can’t believe the people I’ve met, the places I’ve seen and the continued love and support I have from my family and friends. Indulge me as I capture some of these wonderful…
Blogging and Singing… It’s a Twosome That Works!
Why do I do the things I do? I have examined my life lately and blogging has certainly played a huge role in this process. Let’s face it; I am “exposing” myself to the public. The Good News…My close friends already know about my “weirdities” while my new friends are just learning. The Bad News…Being…
Lost But Not Forgotten
The theme this week has been about friendships; one featured a friend for over 50 years followed by recent friendships that developed while away from home. Today I want to honor the loss of three different and unique men this past week. Loss at anytime of the year is never easy; during the holidays it…
Make New Friends…But Keep The Old
That’s right my Girl Scout sisters!! I want to feature just two of my newer friends, with the permission they granted me. David and I met at the Inn on Newfound Lake in October 2011. I knew I was going to be friends with him, because I relied on his expertise! He had completed the…
Two Four Six Eight…Who Do You Appreciate?
I’m sure you have been to the mall, visited with Amazon, decked your halls, and started your diet. Wait, no that’s not for another few weeks, whew!!! I appreciate my family and friends. Actually, they are one in the same. My friends are part of my extended family. Most of my friends live near-by, others…
Let’s Give Them Something to Talk About
I’m looking at you, are you looking at me? Now what? I have no idea. I wonder how long Jay Leno’s writing team spends on his opening monologue. I have hit the delete and backspace button more times than the space bar. So many ah ha moments in Blog-land. (Fragment) It’s not as easy as…
I See, I feel, I Hear…Don’t Picture Those Cute Little Monkeys!
I get the question all the time, as I hand an unsuspecting friend or total stranger my business card…What are you going to write about? My business card says it all…Born to Talk. As it turns out, it’s talking in the written form. My short answer to the simple question has to do with what…
