Every once in a while I get the feeling that the Cosmos is speaking to me. You know, a bit of junk mail arrives just as you were thinking the same thing – take a trip, sell the house, order in. Well, yesterday I got a feed to my FB wall that read: 30 Challenges
Yesterday I entitled my post “For Whom the Binoculars Search.” It was a post about the passing of Canadian artist Alex Colville. The title was a nod to the famous quotation from John Donne, which is underlined below No man is an Island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the Continent, a
I have to acknowledge in a post the passing of a famous Canadian artist Alex Colville. I have always loved his work. His paintings belong to the school of photo-realism, I understand. Maybe that’s why I love his work so much. Although they are paintings, they look like surreal photographs that tell a story. To

Or may be that should be “Awe Shucks.” Every once in a while the supermarket that we use has a special on oysters. This weekend they had Malpeque Bay oysters at the amazing price of $13.00 for 33 oysters. When you consider that oysters in a restaurant can cost as much as $3.00 or $4.00
Dinner, for us, is a kind of celebration. It’s a time when we sit down and share the events of the day, celebrate what worked and re-examine what didn’t. It’s a time to connect with the present, relate it to the past and possibly suggest implications for the future!! OK, it’s a little grand for
