It is 7:52 AM on Sunday January 30th, 2022. I’m sitting in my la-Z-Boy recliner in the second floor reading nook. The rising sun illuminates this small space with a young light promising a beautiful day. For the past decade I have preferred the early morning to late at night. The start of a day…… Continue reading The Sun as a Metaphor for Life

Lapham’s Quarterly – Technology
For the past two years I’ve not been very good about reading my Lapham’s Quarterly in a timely manner.

I am trying to more time for this periodical for the same…… Continue reading Lapham’s Quarterly – Technology
Putting the Tree Away

Stepping outside to put away the Christmas wreath I had a flicker of the feelings and emotions I would have on a summer day at the Grandview pool. The warmth on my…… Continue reading Putting the Tree Away
