Hosted a little gathering last night for my neighb

Hosted a little gathering last night for my neighbors and we all laughed about the perfect choice of cocktail napkins. Most people who meet me for the first time would never guess that I am an motorcyclist. Once they learn this little fact they tend to ask where I’ve hidden my tats—don’t all bikers have tats?

When I first moved into this building there was a great deal of apprehension about having a “biker” as a neighbor. None of my neighbors had met me yet because I was on a motorcycle tour in Italy when my hubby started moving our things in. Now we can all laugh about the evils of stereotypes and the power of an open heart and mind.

So I leave you with this thought. There is no us and them here on Planet Earth—it’s all us. We rise and fall together. We are called to love each another without ceasing, especially when people are at their most unlovable. And yes, that’s a note to self.

Picked this painting up years ago at Sleepy Poet and I love pairing it with different flowers. This was a surprise combo. Possibly my fave because I never really paid attention to the oranges in it before. It’s like a new painting to me!

This is how it’s done!

Writing of chipmunks scurrying under her house: “They are like neighbors who check the mailbox from the car and then drive into the garage, never a friendly word.”

And, “But the shadow of love is always loss, and grief is only love’s own twin.”

Thanks @sonjalivvy for the recommendation!

Smiling faces and an custom sidecar at the BMW Riders Association National Rally.

This large gathering spends most of its time outdoors. In accordance with local mandates, masks are required indoors and I’m happy to say people have complied without drama. This will not make the news as a super-spreader event.

When I break out a new $7 “good” journal and m

When I break out a new $7 “good” journal and my first edition of “Old Friend from Far Away,” I’ve sealed a commitment to myself.

After two weeks on the road traveling Ohio River towns, followed by a week at the Appalachian Writers Workshop, I realize how much memoir is in the book I will write about the river. How crossing the river from Ohio into Kentucky and West Virginia to visit family marked the transition from the life I was living and the lives I’d come from. These south-of-the-river kin were my mother’s people. The older I get the more I want to know about them.

Legacy. We all leave one. I am reflecting on the legacy of hillbillies, coal miners, railroad men, quilters, canners, and reluctant brides and mothers. Blackburns, Varneys, Thackers, and Kendricks. Making lists of things I know and things I long to know on the path to discovering larger truths about myself.
