All I ever did as a kid was play outdoor games. Almost any game would do. Preferably a sport that included a ball. There, too, almost any size and shape of ball would fit the bill. Give me a ball, a couple of friends and our afternoon was set. Weather was a non-issue. Hell, a […]

I have no pets. There was only one time in my life when there was an animal in our family home and it was between when I was 15 & 18, or there about. Our dog, or at least it appeared to be of the canine variety, was angry. Angry at all times. He was […]

Having grown up in northern Wisconsin I’ve always had the opportunity to celebrate the changing of the seasons. Each one has it’s merits but for me, summer is chief. Simply put, the warmer the better. I loath most days that begin and end in darkness with only sub-zero temperatures in between. There’s no doubt that […]

Hey people, how’s your summer? Over I suppose. Tough break. As is mine. I had a thought the other day after I received a photo of my nephew sans his dental braces … damn he looked good! It was then that I went back in time and tried to recollect my feelings when it was […]

Hey people, it’s been a while. Excuses are only that, so I’ll go no further as to why my delays in writing. Onward. Here we are, in the down-side of the wilting, summer days and I have a confession for you all: I can’t stand parades. Parades are a summer staple in our state and, […]

As I gazed out my dual-paned window I quickly noticed that the dull, burnt sienna shades of our belated winter months had rapidly begun to change. Almost everywhere I surveyed there were variations of jade, emerald, pea-green and olive hues. Artistic and beautiful. I couldn’t stop looking and admiring the metamorphose. To everything there is […]

Greetings to those who’ve been reading my various ramblings. I’m writing this to explain my absence. I’ve been on ‘holiday’ to the west coast. My life partner, Tina, and I drove 6400 miles in our slightly outdated, family van. Frankly, we’re both proud of the old Oldsmobile and may keep it for as long as […]

Reiny here. I have no excuses but have come to realize that I’m actually more talented at deleting an 1800+ new post than I am at writing one. I’ll dig out my ouigi board and attempt to conjure up what I have now lost. Fortunately I still have 700 words down. Lucky for you this […]

Greetings to all of you who have not only found my little web site, but also who have taken the time to read some of my pieces. When I decided to begin this unknown trek into the world of blogging, (with considerable assistance from people ‘in the know’) I certainly wasn’t sure on just how […]
