Take Care
A little over a week ago, I asked Uncle Bob to put up the pea trellis in my Pleasant Street garden. Funny, but I didn’t hear one pea(p) out of him about trellis timing. In the past, I planted my … Continue reading

Visions of Moonflowers
I direct-sowed some moonflower seeds last summer but they came to nothing. One seed packet says “do not transplant well.” We’ll see.
Spring Writer’s Slump
I “started out strong” with today’s post. I was up at 5:00 a.m., writing as soon as my coffee was done. I didn’t procrastinate or get sidetracked by reading a book. Somewhere along the line, though, I got bogged down. … Continue reading

A Day in The Life
You might think acronyms didn’t exist before the Internet, but that would be false. Ancient Romans and Greeks used abbreviations in similar time-saving ways as us moderns. For example, “the Roman Empire” was sometimes abbreviated as SPQR, short for Senatus … Continue reading
Postcards from Presque Isle
It’s Friday and I just updated The Lady Alone Traveler blog over at the Sun Journal’s website. Click on the gorgeous lighting fixture to be transported to Presque Isle, Maine. Amish buggies, beagles, and more…
