Top Ten Things Not to Do During the 1849 California Gold Rush
This edition continues the historical background on the Top Ten feature. I hope you like it. 10 If you are near the gold rush, do not sell everything to go mine gold. If you do, at best you will break even. At worst, you’ll find that you have blown your life savings chasing a […]
Views of the Neighborhood – Bailey Speaks
“Hi. I’m Bailey, and the canine sisters finally gave me an opportunity to say hello. The reason I’m here as you may guess is to let you know Pops is still not in a position to be roaming around the neighborhood taking photos. I think he could have done it this week, but I heard […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Round
Round about now it is Stream of Consciousness Saturday time again and this week’s prompt is “round.” There are bonus points available if you start and end the post with the word round or a word that contains round.

Friday JohnKu – AKA – TGIF Bailey Visits

Views of the Neighborhood – Twiggy Speaks
“Hi everyone. My name’s Twiggy. I just am taking a short break from playing in the dirt. Lucy kind of forced me to come out here and let you know that Dad will not be posting a Views of the Neighborhood. See he has this walker thingy and no approval from the doctor to be […]
