Slim Randles is back again as today’s Wednesday’s Guest, and I really like this essay about the state fair. I have always loved to go to fairs – the rides, the livestock barns, the funnel cakes, the cotton candy, and have I mentioned the livestock barns? Not everyone likes to tramp through those hot, smelly […]
Before posting the review, I just want to take a moment to pause and remember that horrible day when a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda on the United States occurred on the morning of September 11, 2001.

Slim Randles is here as today’s Wednesday’s Guest, and he has a lovely essay about the first month of Autumn.

Instead of having a guest post from Slim Randles or another author, I thought I would feature some of the Olympians as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. Have you been watching the Olympics? I have caught some of the events and was so thrilled to see Simone Biles win 4 gold medals in gymnastics. Her floor event was spectacular. And another

This essay by Slim Randles, today’s Wednesday’s Guest, put me in mind of the summer evenings of my childhood when us kids would be playing baseball on the street while the grownups sat on porch swings, enjoying a cool evening after a sweltering day. There is something special about sharing moments like these with friends while connecting to the

This is our second week of drama camp, and it has been so much fun watching the kids tap into their creativity and find the words and music for the original production they are writing: “The Good, The Bad & The Downright Silly.” We have performances this coming weekend, then next Monday I crash. So
