Hello from Starbucks on the campus, It is an incredibly beautiful fall day, and the colors are spectacular. I spoke with the women painting the townhouse, and they were impressed at how clean I left everything, which meant a lot because they see a lot of stuff. It is strange to feel a bit homelessContinue reading “Remembering Susan”

Understanding Beauty
Hello at the end of a busy, but beautiful, fall weekend, Slowly, but consistently, things are coming together for my finishing up my time in Bloomsburg.

What Compels Me to Take This Path
Hello from Panera Bread on a Rainy First Monday of Autumn, It has been a busy day, and yet one to take some time to offer self-care. Over the past months, I have imagined, pondered, reflected, and, at morments, fretted about the impending life change that became a reality the sixteenth of August. Indeed, IContinue reading “What Compels Me to Take This Path”
An Encounter with Elegance
Good Saturday morning from the patio, What a beautiful first day of June here in North Central Pennsylvania. I will miss these days. The humidity is low, the breeze is simple and tranquil.

Is Frailty a Gift?

Examining a Changing Academy
Hello from my upstairs office, As I move into my last month of teaching during the academic year, and there is an additional four week summer course to manage, I find myself stepping back to reflect on what being involved in some kind of teaching since 1992 has shown. When I took that first positionContinue reading “Examining a Changing Academy”
Unexpected Gift – Unexpected Time
Hello from my office in Bakeless, As I said to a couple of people today, it has been a long week today, or perhaps a long month this week (and it is only Tuesday). 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”
Imagining Possibilities
Hello from Iowa and a family ceremony, Family is such an incredible reality and yet simultaneously a concept.
