It is a beautiful world that Boza and I live in. No traffic, no smog, no people, no hate and no trash everywhere. It is a world of solitude and to many, that would be a death sentence. It is not a life for all, but it should be a life we all need. It […]
I was taking my pills this morning. Those nemeses of life as you get older and frailness walks upon you. At one time I took up to 40 pills once a day and another 20 later in the day. This morning I realized that I have been working slowly but surely to wean myself off […]
This morning at 4:45 a.m., Boza and I went for a walk. It was dark, scary and snowing! I always carry a flashlight at the dark walks and it is a good flashlight, rechargeable and allows me to see a long ways in the dark. I put it to use this morning… First thing when […]

March 20th, 2016 is the first day of spring… And the picture is small, because spring has sprung […]
I have said very little about Ukraine. It is a subject that upsets me tremendously and a subject that causes me anguish. East Ukraine is one of the most wonderful places in the world, or at least is / was until Kiev and the west decided that killing the people was the answer to all […]
It was -15 (Weather station said so!) at 5:00 a.m. and it had snowed most of the night. This morning was a frozen winter wonderland and it was so beautiful as the sun came up in a crystal clear sky… It seems like a fairy tale as just a few days ago, I was burning […]
