Sunset View From Front Porch

Here is the view of tonight’s sunset from my front porch.

How The Walls Come Crumblin’ Down

One of the moments in recent world history that is incorrectly believed happened on this date, Nov. 9, in 1989 when the Berlin Wall finally started to come down. The wall had been constructed in the early 1960s as a way to seperate East Germany, which was a bloc of the Soviet Union, from WestContinue reading “How The Walls Come Crumblin’ Down”

Peace And Love For The People Of Louisville Following Deadly UPS Crash

With all the bad things going on in the world, you wonder how much more awful news can we hear. Like most people I was horrified to see the UPS Freight MD-11 crash in the Louisville area. So far as of this posting, there are 14 people reported to have been killed in the crashContinue reading “Peace And Love For The People Of Louisville Following Deadly UPS Crash”

Autumn In Wagoner

As the cooler temperatures begin to settle in for the next few months and darkness comes earlier each day, Autumn is in full bloom in Wagoner, Okla., a suburb of Tulsa.

Not The Obit I Was Hoping For, But A Win Is Still A Win

I’m not going to have any sympathy for someone like Dick Cheney. He lived a long life at 84 while cutting many other lives short for his own capital gain. Yes, yes, yes. He turned around over a year ago and said he would support Kamala Harris in the 2024 Presidential election. Just because FrankensteinContinue reading “Not The Obit I Was Hoping For, But A Win Is Still A Win”

Beaver Moon Tonight

The one good thing about the recent time change is a lot of people will be able to see the full moon earlier that usual. And tonight’s is supposed to be the Beaver Moon. Yet, the best time to see it will actually be in the early morning hours. The super moon is expected toContinue reading “Beaver Moon Tonight”

Happy Native American Heritage Month

I want to wish everyone a Happy Native American Heritage Month. I grew up near New Echota in northwest Georgia which used to be where the Cherokee Nation was before the Trail of Tears. Now, by chance, I live in northeast Oklahoma which is where the Cherokee Nation is located now. Later this, SkasdiCon willContinue reading “Happy Native American Heritage Month”

Halloween At Dewains

I decided to go out to a Halloween party at Dewains Place in Tahlequah. And I was a little disappointed because there was supposed to be a costume contest but they weren’t going to do that until midnight. I’ve also learned that bars and nightclubs in less metropolitan areas are kind of boring. It’s mostlyContinue reading “Halloween At Dewains”

Peace And Love On Day Of The Dead

For all of those people out there who celebrate, I want to wish you peace and love on the Day of the Dead. This past year, I lost my mother who was 80 at the time she passed. It’s never easy losing a parent but I consider myself grateful that I didn’t have to endureContinue reading “Peace And Love On Day Of The Dead”
