Vermont... Do I Really Want To Be Here? Since moving to this area last December, having first visited here when I was 15 years old many years ago, I have thought is this the place I want to live and die? Yes, but...I also want to travel to places I have never been to before. This May 2008, I am planning to take a cruise to Ocho Rios, Grand Cayman and Cozumel just to get away for awhile. I might drive on down to the Florida Keys, if I can find a travel mate who will share the driving. When I get back, I might just buy this place and stay here for good. A lot of work needs to be done, some of it is just maintenance, but outside the house needs to be stripped of chipping paint, primer and seal with a new color. Maybe, I will go from grey to white, which will reflect the sun's rays in the summer, with no central air conditioning here. It will match the house up the road, but then again maybe a nice red house would be better for the wolf who lives alone. That's right ladies, I live alone and I am straight. Always have been and always will be. Looking for a nice lady to help keep my feet warm. The last one psyched out on me. Thursday nights, I go off to the local Kentucky Blue Grass festival which is always free and plenty of coffee and cake and cheese and crackers to go around. Met George, the owner, and we talked about members of "The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band" showing up to play with the local boys. The name he gave to the local band is "The Better Than Nothing Band." I have chronicled my first 4 visits to hear their music and listen to the melodious tones of Sally who does all the Lorretta Lynn wailing in her Southern Baptist twang singing voice. Others join in with their own specialties of singing, so it is a great night out just for the fun of it. I have to start writing a book and getting other things done, so I might return from time to time to update my blog and let you know what exciting things will be coming our way in the future. Don't touch that dial!

I started writing as a journalist and photojournalist for a Northern New Jersey, USA newspaper and had a good readership for my stories. The stories were both assigned by the editor and self motivated for human interest stories on ordinary people.
I stopped writing as a result of a traumatic experience while being asked to serve on a school board. That incident is the subject of a book that is a work in progress. I hope to publish the book after the November, 2008 presidential elections.
Let's just say that politics is a rough and tumble sport. But, does it have to be that way?
