It was a long wonderful day. We had to get up early to get the on the road. As I understand it, we took the scenic High Road to Santa Fe. On the way there were stops at some of the most interesting missions. San Jose de Gracia de Las Trampas has been called “the […]
Ever-lovin’ here. Lanabird has flown away to the Land of Enchantment with the “Buds” for a few days. But, she wants all of you to know that she will be back soon to regale you with tales of her adventures. So stay tuned….. I am keeping the home fires burning (even on these 100+ days).
VBS just ain’t what it used to be, ain’t what it used to be, ain’t what it used to be… No longer do they march in behind the US flag, the Christian flag, and the Bible. No longer do they say pledges to the flags and the Bible. No longer do they have a hymn […]

Casa Flamingo Cathy is Ever-Lovin’s sister. She enjoys and is good at decorating (understatement). Her homes have been on the Bastrop home tours more than once. A few years back, she moved into a grand old home and commenced to spit and shine it into a thing of beauty. Then the house next door became […]
For longer than I want to admit, several (seven to be exact – I am ashamed to tell) pictures had been sitting on the floor in the den waiting to be hung, or not hung as we so desired. Do you understand that sentence? Here is what happened. I had a space in the den […]
This week my friend mentioned that pebbled sidewalks were awful. I didn’t know that, but now that I do, I have something else to put on the to-do list. Why are there so many things to feel bad about? Don’t get me wrong. I want more than the average wanter, but I also want to […]
Heather is a red-tailed hawk living in Dallas, Texas. For the past five years, Heather has nested and laid her eggs on the ledge of this Bank of America’s tenth floor. We can see the nest from the windows in the infusion room. She is up there. I promise – second window from the left […]
