Fall has arrived, have you noticed? I know you’ve noticed the cooler weather, but have you noticed all the other wonderful parts of autumn that make this season so wonderful? I’ve been walking as much as possible lately, not so much to save on gas and the wear and tear on my car, but to... Continue Reading →
The title of this column is actually a quote by Loren Eiseley. In fact, I used to own a T-shirt with this quote on it. It’s always been an amazing medium to me, that’s for sure. For there is nothing that can create magic quite as easily as water. I always feel better in or... Continue Reading →
I typically don’t do a lot with community theater over the summer. It’s a very busy time for me, and the season is so short that I don’t want a lot of commitments keeping me indoors and away from all that warmth and sunshine. But in early June the community theater held its annual membership... Continue Reading →
It had been a good week, but still, I was happy for it to be Friday. I was looking forward to a weekend with no commitments, heaven for an introvert. I got home, changed out of my work clothes into something soft and comfortable, and after making supper, I crashed on the couch for a... Continue Reading →

Part Three of Three Parts Saturday night’s dinner was leisurely, as we all knew it was one of the last amazing meals we were going to have for the weekend. MJ’s daughter Angela is an amazing cook and spoiled us rotten with wonderful and delicious main courses and desserts. At one point, Mel asked what... Continue Reading →
Part Two of Three After a delicious, hearty breakfast, we bundled up and headed outside for our first full run of the trail Saturday morning. Barbara, my roommate from Florida, was the first to volunteer. Having spent a few hours chatting in our room the night before, I was not surprised. Barbara is fearless and... Continue Reading →
First in a series of three parts Every once in a while it’s good to get one of those items off your bucket list. Last fall I received an email about a workshop called “Gone to the Dogs,” a Beyond BOW (Becoming an Outdoors Woman) program offered by the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point....

Funny how inspiration comes from the unlikeliest of places at times. Today was that kind of day. Actually, the last few days were that kind of day. A "Polar Vortex" had hit Wisconsin and the whole state kind of shut down over the span of three days. Oh, we fought it though. We kept going... Continue Reading →
