A Double Secret Probation. I love Milton. I really do. I’ve been here 25 years. That’s not a weekend visit. That’s not a “we’re thinking about moving here.” That’s two and a half decades of property taxes, town events and parades and waving at people I don’t remember meeting. Milton is the perfect town size: … Continue reading On Probation

Winter Is a Personal Attack
There was a time not so long ago when I didn’t mind the cold. In fact, one might say I embraced it. Even more than that, I didn’t mind the extreme cold. For, when I was young, winter meant one thing – it meant that Spring was around the corner and with that came track. … Continue reading Winter Is a Personal Attack
There Are Rules
We live in a society of rules. When rules aren’t followed, the general framework of daily life breaks down. I’m not talking about laws. Laws are different. Laws are written down and more importantly, if laws are not followed, then there are consequences and punishments. Rules are a different breed. No, I don’t know what … Continue reading There Are Rules
You Are Now Free To Move About the Cabin
Another Slam Bam-Tastik Idea On my personal slice of the WWW, I will admit, I can be a little unrealistic and might even venture into absurdity. But not this time. I was on the ladder repairing drywall on a ceiling and a song came from my playlist that I have always liked: “Waitress in the … Continue reading You Are Now Free To Move About the Cabin
Wild Wild (WaWa) West
I do a bit of work here and there. I travel for work and I take on projects that might last for weeks, even months. Luckily, the last 3 long term projects I’ve worked on have been near a WaWa: Bridgeville and Long Neck in Delaware and presently the WaWa in Cambridge, Maryland. When there … Continue reading Wild Wild (WaWa) West
‘Twas The Night Before Christmas Break Was Over
Of all the things I’ve written, all the worthless nonsense and all the crazy ideas, I rather like this one. I wrote it years ago, many years ago, when my daughters, you know them by now, Kate and Charlotte, as you are regular readers of my blog (AREN’T YOU !?!?!?), were still young and in … Continue reading ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas Break Was Over
Another Mystery
I consider myself a smart man. By smart, I mean that when presented with a solvable problem, I can (usually) figure it out. Give me a physics equation, then, odds are - no. But those aren’t solvable to the normal person on the street. With a set of plans, I can build stuff. Or, when … Continue reading Another Mystery
Random Thoughts and Updates
My apologies to you, my loyal and faithful reader. The dog days of summer got to me and I got busy. Hot. Busy. Tired. Yup – that’s me. I wanted to catch you up on a few things. Plus – I have a few random thoughts. Update or random thought – I’ll let you figure … Continue reading Random Thoughts and Updates
No – You Are Not #1
Many of you know of this that I’m about to speak of. Or is it that I’m about to write of? Either way. Me, I find this type of stuff fascinating. I love finding out that something I do has historical meaning and has been handed down over the centuries. Not that I would ever … Continue reading No – You Are Not #1
AITA
Ok - some of you may know what that means. For those of you that don’t… On long road trips, Lisa will often get on the Reddit Ap and read the section where people post an experience and then ask, “Am I The Asshole?” I’ve often wanted to post a few of these, but I … Continue reading AITA
