Twilight
T hese days I go to bed late and wake up late. I don’t like this but I can’t seem to break the cycle. I like to work in daylight hours, not at night. Doing this is also makes me late to Storyteller. I used to post and schedule the night before but I’m trying…

Farther Along & Further In
There are a few flowers still blooming and growing. I came across the remainders of a little Camellia. Wow, I thought. A possible picture. So I clicked the button a couple of times. I continued on. I felt lucky. You know, I’m not seeing pictures all that well. In fact, I might not be seeing…

Looks Like
A Sunday picture. A bright spring like picture to help your day. Something colorful. Something almost playful. Something to make you smile. Or, groan. Spring on a winter’s day. I have a blogging buddy. She doesn’t post much anymore. She mostly posts on Facebook and on Instagram. She moved from Northwest Louisiana to Iowa. She…

Heat
This isn’t what you think. This about New Orleans. This is about the New Orleans that makes national news. This is about the city in the throes of summer. This is about murder. Mayhem. Mass shootings. Rolling shootings. This is about at least 11 people shot, leaving three dead. This is about the first shooting…
