Life That was pouring like an avalanche comin’ down the mountain Shawshank, June 16, 2026 Good morning my friends, it’s a bright, but gray day out here in the middle of nowhere. There’s some road work going on about a block away. You don’t hear it too often around here. Podrick was a very good boy this morning. I think he only crawled over me maybe, once. He did try… Continue Reading
Life Through barbed wire valleys and overgrown dells Shawshank, June 15, 2026 I was awake before my alarm, again. That’s on, I usually am, when it comes to work.

He wasn’t just the problem, it’s (what I call) spring out there, and… Continue Reading
Life by summer’s end I predict that I’ll have finally lost my mind Shawshank, June 11, 2026 It’s another gray morning today. It’s supposed to be overcast, rainy, and just mostly depressing weather for the day; high of 61°. So yeah, a pretty unsettled day. No thunderstorms, or tornado watches yesterday. So yeah it’s another beautiful day up here in the middle of nowhere. This weekend is the town-wide garage sale. And,… Continue Reading
