What is Silent Sunday? It is a regular post (since May 2017) on my blog that consists only of my photography based on a theme of my choice. This spring, I am featuring travel by using the alphabet to narrow my choices. Usually, there is no text except for the captions. Thanks for stopping by!

Poetry Friday: Keeping it Short (kind of)
I’m keeping things short this week, since I’m lacking motivation and optimism. Part of my problem, I think, is that I’ve elected to read some pretty heavy stuff lately. I bought a poetry book called Milk and Honey (2015) in the bookstore on St. Thomas. It attracted me for the simplicity of the cover, the…
Silent Sunday: Dublin Days
Silent Sunday is a long standing part of my WordPress blog that features my own photography on a theme of my choice each week (most weeks).

While these photos are captioned, there is no other text; just beautiful scenes to look at. I decided to bring Silent Sunday back because I miss posting my photos, and it was…
Bringing Back Silent Sunday
Silent Sunday was a post I did for several years on this blog, which was a photo from my archives that I selected and posted on Sundays. I did not write text or explain the photo in any way. It was one of my most popular regular posts for many years. Since moving over to…
Getting to Know Sir Walter Scott
How can it be Poetry Friday again?! This week went fast! I’ve been busy and productive, so it’s made for a happy week. While I have written some children’s poetry this week, I’m still scrubbing it up, so instead I want to share how I got to “know” a famous Scottish poet. While in Scotland,…
Round up of My Articles on Our Trip to Scotland
Most of my articles appear on my Medium.com page under my name. But, if you follow me here instead of there, I thought I’d post friend links to the articles. Friend links are Medium’s way of allowing access to articles to those who are not Medium members. Obviously, the platform would like more members, and…
