I Followed The Yellow Brick Road
The Yellow Brick Road is more than just a path to the Emerald City; it symbolizes self-discovery, growth, and transformation. For all of us, each yellow brick represents the building blocks of our lives, the experiences, and lessons that shape who we are.

Well let me clarify. It is not a murderous week but rather this is the week I am going to write about the close encounters we have had with murder. Ok, Ok, Ok, so let me further clarify we were never in harms way or connected to these murders. As a child my parents thought…

The neighbor had their roof replaced today. They are the last of us on the block to get that done. I guess 15 years is that magic age where the insurance companies get nervous and lay a little financial pressure on you to make that financial sacrifice. The crazy observation is what we paid for…

In the 49 years we have been married I would have to say communication and technology is what has changed the most. (other than the pounds, wrinkles, aches, and pains we have added to our collections) As I mentioned in my Honeymoon post, getting a private phone was so important to us as newlyweds and…

Sooooo many memories in this tiny space, but it was ours. When I hear of couples and families now not being able to actually own their home I reflect back on how proud we were to buy our first home the month before we married. Although sweetie was able to move in the month before…

This is not going to be the kind of post you think. Safe to read even while drinking your coffee. Where others may think that a Honeymoon Trip to the beautiful state of FLORIDA in 1977 is extraordinary, keep in mind we live in Florida. But yes honeymooning in Florida was special for us. The…
