Sisters from Another Mother

A 60+ year journey through friendships with the "sisters" from MIdway. "We've been educated. We got liberated. And had complicating matters with men. Oh, we've said "I do" And we've signed "I don't" And we've sworn we'd never do that again. Oh, we burned our bras, And we burned our dinners And we burned our candles at both ends. And we've had some children Who look just like the way we did back then. Oh, but we're all grown up now. All grown up, But none of us could tell you quite how." KT Oslin...

A Mormon, A Jehovah's Witness and a Nurse Walk into a House...

Camping in the "Damn Camper"

Our first camping trip in about two years due to COVID and being at home. Some things like backing the trailer together never change, while some really important things have changed. As our neighbor 1/2 mile up the road said, “ if we want to camp, we can pitch a tent in our back field, it’s way more private than a campground”.

A Closet Podcaster Outed

It's been a little over a year since starting a weekly podcast. It was just me, my laptop, a cheap Amazon mic in the back room of the house where no one would know what I was doing.

Riots, Roundabouts and Minnesota NIce

Minnesota nice is a cultural stereotype applied to the behavior of people from Minnesota implying residents are unusually courteous, reserved, mild-mannered and passive-aggressive. The phrase also implies polite friendliness, an aversion to open confrontation, a tendency toward understatement, a disinclination to make a direct fuss or stand out, apparent emotional restraint, and self-deprecation.
