A Movable Marriage
Living and Loving on the Road
Picky Eaters
Last winter we hung a bird feeder from a hook above our porch. A self-styled Cinderella or Snow White, I loved seeing my little friends each day. In time we had issues. My feathered friends had sloppy eating habits, scattering pecked-at food everywhere. (A quick...
Here’s to Your Health!
When my daughters were little, they delighted me with their creations. From multicolored pasta necklaces to ceramics, their projects found a special place in my heart. Even if you don't have children of your own, I know you can relate to the joy of receiving a gift...
See You in September
What's your favorite season? Whatever it is, there's a song or two or ten about it. Billie Holiday famously celebrated "April in Paris" and Nat King Cole extolled the virtues of "Those Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer" while winter offerings are limitless, even aside...
The Waiting Game
A nurse popped her head into the doctor's office and said, "There's an invisible man in the waiting room." The doctor replied, "Tell him I can't see him." *** Last weekend I walked into a restaurant and said "Hi, is my table ready?" The hostess said, "Not yet. Do you...

Shadow and Substance
Earlier this month on St. Patrick’s Day I invited you to visit the Emerald Isle with me. Come with me today to the Judaean Hills near Jerusalem. In 1987 I toured the Holy Land, visiting the usual spots like the Dome of the Rock, the Western Wall, and the Church of the...
All Things Irish
Happy St. Paddy's Day to you! Who was Saint Patrick, and why do we celebrate today? Neither a canonized saint nor Irish, he was born in Roman Britain in the late 4th century, kidnapped at the age of 16 by pirates, and taken to Ireland as a slave. He escaped but later...
