I was expressing my concerns that I...
You know I am getting old enough that my idea of a good time is to raise a garden. I go out and water things with a hose just because it takes longer.
I have had too much time to think lately, and I am kind of missing the good old days.
Forty years from now will be the good old days for my...
We got a problem in our Cave. I am not one to air dirty laundry, but we need some serious counseling. Okay the problem is that we are going to go to Tonga for two years and we can only have one carry-on bag and two large suitcases to take whatever it is we think we might need.
