The Consequence of Location

Hello from yet another coffee shop, now in Marathon WI, I was back in Iowa for the Thanksgiving holiday, though at the other side of our state. While it is a growing metropolis of sorts (pushing 400,000), it is still Iowa. Between there and Iowa City, the home of the University of Iowa, there areContinue reading “The Consequence of Location”

Life in Every Breath

Hello at the end of the week, It is difficult to believe we are almost into the year holiday season. This coming week I will fly back to Iowa to spend Thanksgiving with family.

I know there was a full-moon, a snow moon, over the weekend, but it seems that its shadow is messing withContinue reading “Unexpected Gift – Unexpected Time”

The More I Learn . . .

This past week has reminded me once again ofContinue reading “The More I Learn . . .”

Making Changes

Good morning, I know I had a draft of another post saved, but at the moment, it has disappeared. I actually when out for breakfast this morning and trying to eat something that is not processed or does not have sugar in it is quite the dilemma. The change in my diet and lifestyle isContinue reading “Making Changes”
