A Banyan Tree In Our Lighthouse Yard

Tree Of Roots – Above And Below I wonder if these above ground roots that resemble animalia, have same size roots underneath and get soaked by canal waters underground and become softened over time. Maybe they move about and make noises altered by artificial intelligence used by boats, making them sound like words that getContinueContinue reading “A Banyan Tree In Our Lighthouse Yard”

Sharon’s Nativity Scene

Returning home from a long walk to and from the local stores to stock my pantry pre-Christmas, as I entered my building and rounded the corner to the elevators I saw this little ceramic guy bending toward me, looked like a King or something. Behind him stood a holiday bag, not new, but still fineContinueContinue reading “Sharon’s Nativity Scene”

Ever notice that dogs don’t startle much? The neighborhood is getting ready early for Halloween. Steve takes Lilly for a walk to the vet. It’s in the neighborhood and he wanted to re-familiarize her for the shots she’s getting next week and to weigh her. She lost a pound and walked in like she ownedContinueContinue reading “Lilly Encounters Her First Alien”

Insect Or Drone?

Can insects communicate with humans, so the human knows what they’re communicating? I open the blinds and there clings an insect to the screen. Big as far as insects I’ve seen go. I stared and the insect stared back. I could sense the insect strategizing as it attempted to slowly move it’s legs. Maybe itContinueContinue reading “Insect Or Drone?”

Our 1975 Trip To Soviet Union

In 1975 Steve and I took a trip with some students and chaperones to the Soviet Union – in the middle of winter! Steve got his expenses paid for organizing the trip.

1967 Bullfighting Poster – unwrapped

What was the bull’s name? Barcelona = Basque Country = ruling itself absent a conscience = can’t let go of the continuation of the commission of atrocities from the past = dangerous people, dangerous culture, dangerous government I didn’t catch the name of the bull.

Black Squirrels In Lakewood

I never heard of a black squirrel. Never saw one in person or in a picture. While walking with Steve to view some of the apartment/condo buildings on the Gold Coast near where we live, we happened upon a bunch of black squirrels in a small region of a small neighborhood, running from yard toContinueContinue reading “Black Squirrels In Lakewood”

A Catalpa Tree Grows Where I live

Years ago, in our front yard on Arthur Street in Springfield Massachusetts grew a catalpa tree. Large leaves with long bean-like pods and white pungent flowers that stuck to the sidewalk where they fell. That was a long time ago and the tree has since been taken down. In all the places I lived sinceContinueContinue reading “A Catalpa Tree Grows Where I live”
