Christmas 1912

Yes, you read the title correctly……Christmas 1912!  On Tuesday, I went to a monthly event called “Tea with Dee” at the Hoag Library in Albion.  The first Tuesday of each month at noon, Delia Robinson, the Gaines Town Historian, gives a talk and serves… Continue Reading “Christmas 1912”

One Year…

This week marks one full year since I moved back home to Albion!  What a year it has been!  I’ve written quite a bit in the past year commemorating my adventures and experiences.  But, it is difficult to put into words what it has… Continue Reading “One Year…”

Autumn in WNY

There are some awesome places to view the beauty that Autumn brings to our lives…….most mountainous areas offer amazing scenery!  I personally have enjoyed the changing leaves along the Blue Ridge Parkway in NC’s Blue Ridge Mountains, in the Adirondack Mountains of NY, and… Continue Reading “Autumn in WNY”

Directionally Challenged

I readily admit it.  I have a major problem.  I am, to put it bluntly, directionally challenged.  I can get lost in my own back yard if getting around it requires the ability to know what direction I’m headed.  I am proud to say… Continue Reading “Directionally Challenged”

Serenity

Serenity, peace, living the good life……call it what you will, but I have had three days in a row where I have enjoyed perfect serenity – a little piece of heaven – and I didn’t have to go far to find it!  Right now,… Continue Reading “Serenity”
