Aye, mateys, it be Talk Like a Pirate Day. I be missin’ New Orleans and all me pirate buckos. The captain and I will be bucklin’ our swashes and downin’ some grog with friends tonight. Or something like that. Actually we are meeting up with a couple of friends for drinks and then with other…
Amish Auction
Today was the annual Amish auction in Clarita. Lisa and I went with our friend, Mary, as we had done last year. The weather couldn’t have been better – low 70s with a cool breeze. AND we remembered sunscreen this time. We wandered through a large covered area of vendors and then opted to eat…
National T.V. Dinner Day

My birthday weekend

We headed to “the city” (that’s Okie-speak for Oklahoma City) Friday afternoon. We didn’t get out of town until 3…
New Orleans is…
Eight years ago today the world watched New Orleans drown and thus began the “should it be rebuilt” refrain. Fortunately the people of New Orleans don’t much care what others think so they doggedly set about putting their city back together, one house, one restaurant, one bar at a time.
