Senior Thoughts
I have never thought of myself as a Senior though my age would indicate I have been one for some time. To often seniors are all considered to be in one box when reality seniors are like a superstore with a little bit of everything. In this section, I will discuss bits of everything.
HOA Clubs
A few days ago my wife showed me a post from a friend who was enjoying life and all club activities our AZ HOA has to offer. She also showed me some of the negative comments on the post which were disgusting at best. They were critical or making fun of a person who was…
Republicans, The Ten Commandments, & TDI
Republicans have pushing for states to display the Ten Commandments in the classroom. One state where the legislature is controlled by Republicans has complied and others like North Dakota where I lived for many years are considering it. Clearly this is a violation of the First Amendment, separation of church and state but be that…
Viva La Mexico!!!
I was visiting one of my health car providers with whom I have become friends. I was telling him about my recent trip to Mexico and he said Mexico was a lot safer years ago. Before going farther, I should point out I love Mexico and have been there numerous times. I love the country,…
Lions and Bears and Bobcats, Oh My

In 2010 while a sophomore at the U of Cincinnati Travis Kelce was suspended by his coach for testing positive for marijuana before the Sugar Bowl. He was suspended for the entire following season. At…
Tucson Marathon, HOA, Pickle Ball, Feel the Joy
My wife’s niece and her husband just ran the Tucson Marathon. I dropped them off at the Biosphere 2 to start, and I was there at the end along with a couple times in between. Running a marathon amazes me. I have done a number of centuries [100 miles or more on a bike] but…
My Mom and Rules Made by Fools
I have been thinking about my Mom a lot lately. A couple of days ago was her birthday. Since she passed on a number of years ago, there was no birthday party. When she got her first teaching job in a small town in W. Central MN, she was in her early 40s, she was…
God Is There
After a tragedy, many often ask where is God? It’s a fair question. After back to back hurricanes, millions of Americans have asked this question. I believe God is there, but not in the way some think. I have been close, but never in a natural disaster. I do know people who have been affected…
