Shakespeare or Orwell?

We live in a political time where 1984 by George Orwell is constantly being referenced, but my preference has always been William Shakespeare. Did my enjoyment of Shakespeare begin with the first words read, the Shakespeare course taught by a brilliant college professor that looked brilliant wearing splendid scarves or the many fabulous film adaptations…

Weekend Watching

I spent some of the weekend watching the arrival of beautiful fall colors and the leaves beginning to fall. In between football games there was time for watching the little birds and the big birds. I was amazed to look out the window and watch the turkey chase a deer into the woods with a…

While the event is loved by…

J.J. Abrams Saturday

Over the last year Saturday has always been a music day on my blog, but I must need a vacation from myself because this week I found myself running out of inspiration for photos and songs. To escape from myself, I disappeared into the wonderful worlds created on the screen by J.J. Abrams as a director,…

The Week In Seven Photos

It was a week of hanging out with younger generations and marveling at their youthful enthusiasm and attitudes. There are so many differences between the generations and my nieces and I have made an arrangement that I do not make too many cracks about the Millennial Generation and they do not refer to those in…
