Starting Again

When I first began this blog, it was my intention to use it as a medium for writing about Scott’s and my travels, “Our Travels (and Stayings at Home)”. This implies that, not only would I be writing about our travels, it would be a blog about day to day stuff. And that indeed wasContinue reading “Starting Again”

Settled In

(Post written on 8/7/2008 – No Internet Service until 8/11/2008) We arrived! But first, we left the KOA Wednesday, Aug. 6, by about 9:45, and headed for IHOP for breakfast. Following that there was about $100 of supplies we needed at Wal-Mart. Very dry recounting of the morning, I know, but how does one spiceContinue reading “Settled In”

Best Laid Plans

I had today planned… down to the minute, just about! We were going to leave at 9 a.m., and we were going to arrive in Cheyenne, Wyoming, at the KOA by 5 p.m. Key the sound of screeching tires…. the refrigerator isn’t working! This necessitated a stop at the nearby Camping World for a propaneContinue reading “Best Laid Plans”

Countdown to Rendezvous 2008

Here it is, Friday, August 1. In a little over an hour, my vacation begins… well, technically it doesn’t begin until Monday, but my MIND has been on vacation over a day now. Sorry, Jo. This time, I checked out early! We’ve been busy getting ready for this year’s Rendezvous. For Scott and I, it’sContinue reading “Countdown to Rendezvous 2008”

Dipping my toe, testing the water

Hello world. I know there are thousands and thousands of you just waiting for my return to the blogosphere. I’m sorry to have deprived you myriads of people of my insight and wisdom. Okay, now that I’ve exercised my delusions of grandeur, perhaps I can actually write something more based in reality. Hi, Jeremy. SorryContinue reading “Dipping my toe, testing the water”

Untitled

Mom died. She died the day after my last post here. It’s taken me this long to say it, though. The first few weeks afterwards, I thought, would be the hardest. But there was so much to do; in the minutes and hours and days immediately following her dying, there was the visitation and funeralContinue reading “Untitled”

Let’s play catch! (up)

My writing here is sketchy… I realize that. And I doubt that any of my readers, or the few there were, are with me any more to see this. But, I thought I should at least attempt to get caught up on my life here. August 9, 2007, just as promised in my last postContinue reading “Let’s play catch! (up)”

I take thee….

Some years ago, I wrote about marriage. I said basically, that while an official, recognized by the state marriage was important, married in the sight of God was the more important. In August 1997, my partner Scott and I had done just that, gotten married in the sight of God in a Holy Union. Well,Continue reading “I take thee….”

My Journey Continues

I’ve noticed something recently. I was remembering a back-packing trip I took ages ago, alone, into the high country near Estes Park, Colorado. I remember the sense of awe and majesty I had with every change of the trail. I remember also that I felt far more alone than I had expected to. By thatContinue reading “My Journey Continues”

Busy, busy, busy

It sure has been a long time since last I wrote. I’m not sure why that is. I think partially it’s because I really haven’t felt like I had anything worthwhile to say. I’d like nothing more than to be a writer. I think, however, that writing is a gift; and I suspect that myContinue reading “Busy, busy, busy”
