Poetry Friday: Back And Ready to Roll
We returned from Scotland last Sunday after two weeks of being abroad in this gorgeous country. It was a great trip with a lot of walking, hiking, and sightseeing, visiting Fort William, the Isle of Skye, Inverness, and Edinburgh. I hope to write more about it soon.

Poetry Friday: New Friendships Are a Walk Into the Garden of the Unknown
I am hoping that a new volunteer opportunity might provide some new friends. This week on Tuesday, I volunteered at the Monk Botanical Gardens in Wausau, an hour (one way) away. It was my second time there. Why am I traveling an hour away to volunteer? Well, I’ve looked for opportunities closer to the cabin and…
Trials and Tribulations of Travel Today
Our week in the Caribbean was fabulous, with the exception of a few minor hiccups. I’m a planner and a perfectionist. But recently, when it comes to trip planning, I’m a little less obsessive than I used to be. And, I know the reason. It is because our sons are grown and have flown the…
Silent Sunday: My Favorites

Slice of Life Tuesday: The Great River Road
Today, I took a friend with me to deliver my handmade jewelry to the gallery in Iowa that’s carried it for the last eight summers. It’s usually about a 72-mile drive that takes an hour and a half if you go down the Great River Road on the Wisconsin side of the Mississippi River, otherwise…
