My Cave My View
It is a sunny Wednesday morning, and I am boarding a 1948 Cessna 170 with my too kind and loving wife and a friend. He doesn’t like a lot of attention, so we will just call him Dakodta.
First thing that comes to mind is that a 1948 plane is 75 years old, which is way older than me and trust me...
I am really quite beside myself this morning. After my run, I hopped in the shower and went to grab the no-name shampoo that you can also use to clean the garage floor with; but it was gone. So I started looking around and found myself surrounded by my too kind and loving wife’s cutesy fruity...
I am literally standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona, and it is such a fine site to see. There is a girl my Lord, who I happened to be married to and she is not in a flatbed Ford, but is slowin down to take a look at me.
Mostly, she is rolling her eyes as I insist on getting a picture with the...
The best thing about living in San Juan County are the people and the landscape. Being retired has some perks, it’s not all about predicting the weather with my hip. I wake up and can’t remember what day it is, so I call it Saturday. The only day that is a workday now is Sunday. I had no idea it...
There has been a lot of press coverage about AI (artificial intelligence) lately. And it seems everyone is concerned about how AI might take over the world and make some jobs obsolete as AI can do the job faster, better, never call in sick or want a raise.
I was expressing my concerns that I...
You know I am getting old enough that my idea of a good time is to raise a garden. I go out and water things with a hose just because it takes longer.
I have had too much time to think lately, and I am kind of missing the good old days.
Forty years from now will be the good old days for my...
We got a problem in our Cave. I am not one to air dirty laundry, but we need some serious counseling. Okay the problem is that we are going to go to Tonga for two years and we can only have one carry-on bag and two large suitcases to take whatever it is we think we might need.
I could empty out...
“You know I am not as dumb as you think I am.”
My too kind and loving wife looks over her glasses and replies, “I am usually a pretty good judge of character, but for the sake of this discussion please continue. I would love to see where this is going.”
“Exactly! I got this email from a Prince...
I came in from my shop with a few tools in my hand. My job today was to get rid of the old crib down in the basement bedroom.
I walked into the room and caught my too kind and loving wife sniffling with a few big tears on her cheek just sitting on the bed looking at the crib that I was about to...
There are 58,318 names etched in the black granite of the Vietnam Memorial Monument in Washington DC. They represent the veterans that lost their lives in that conflict. There are six names from San Juan County.
There are only eight names that are for women; it was a different time. My 10-year...
