Retired, well-educated Purchasing professional in aerospace field. I discovered Rush Limbaugh in 2001, and spoke to him on the radio in 2005. I mourn his passing every day. My husband and I both lost our employment due to the Government response to the Wuhan Coronavirus; I despise the Health Nazis who are ruining my country.

Windows on Wednesday
What is a window? It's an opening in a wall or a door, normally contains glass, and lets light into the room or building. As an opening, it is often said that the human eye is a "window into the soul". And a book, or a treatise, can be said to "open a window" into …
Weekly Photo Challenge..The Road Taken…A lid on the World
So one afternoon, I'm in my car on the way to a doctor appointment. I'm driving down the freeway, and when I look up and around, the sky looks like there's a "lid" on the world, and it's been raised a bit. And, right in the strip of blue sky between the lid of clouds, …

Weekly Photo Challenge: Shadow
At the Diablo Lake Overlook, along Washington State Highway 20 (North Cascades Highway), Mountain Shadows. It is late afternoon. But when you zoom out a little... Shadows disappear.

Last time I checked, the outside temperature in my town was 33. We had snow over the weekend, and there is still some on the ground in my neighborhood. Here are some winter shots from years past. Brrrrrr... Also from 2012. The round thing in front is our bird bath. The parking lot …
Weekly Photo Challenge…Solitude
The ultimate solitude for me would be sitting here: The private veranda off our cruise-ship stateroom. With a good book. Listening to this: I find the sight and sound of the ship cutting through the water incredibly relaxing.
