My Cave My View
I am literally standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona, and it is such a fine site to see. There is a girl my Lord, who I happened to be married to and she is not in a flatbed Ford, but is slowin down to take a look at me.
Mostly, she is rolling her eyes as I insist on getting a picture with the...
The best thing about living in San Juan County are the people and the landscape. Being retired has some perks, it’s not all about predicting the weather with my hip. I wake up and can’t remember what day it is, so I call it Saturday. The only day that is a workday now is Sunday. I had no idea it...
There has been a lot of press coverage about AI (artificial intelligence) lately. And it seems everyone is concerned about how AI might take over the world and make some jobs obsolete as AI can do the job faster, better, never call in sick or want a raise.
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.

My too kind and loving wife looks over her glasses and replies, “I am usually a pretty good judge of character, but for the sake of this discussion please continue. I would love to see where this is going.”
“Exactly! I got this email from a Prince...
I came in from my shop with a few tools in my hand. My job today was to get rid of the old crib down in the basement bedroom.
I walked into the room and caught my too kind and loving wife sniffling with a few big tears on her cheek just sitting on the bed looking at the crib that I was about to...
There are 58,318 names etched in the black granite of the Vietnam Memorial Monument in Washington DC. They represent the veterans that lost their lives in that conflict. There are six names from San Juan County.
There are only eight names that are for women; it was a different time. My 10-year...
Every eleven minutes, someone dies by suicide. Even more alarming is that two people attempt suicide every minute.
Statistics don’t put a human face to the pain of those that suffer from depression resulting in suicide and for those that are left to unravel the questions and deal with the guilt...
If there is a benefit to travel it is to learn about other people, customs, and cultures and of course to get out of the snow for a minute.
The plane ride to Hawaii was akin to sitting in the rear jump-seat of a Ford Ranger for six hours. The inflight meal was four bags of pretzels and a Coke. Am...
