I'm just a guy who enjoys writing for Medium and his many blogs and networking with other writers and creative folk. Feel free to engage with me about any topic. I usually have something to say or add to the conversation. I also share my work. Enjoy.
I love the contrast of these types of trees. They look so amazing against a blue sky! 🍃 #tree #burgundy #bluesky #nature #writerslife

I was on a walk recently and stumbled upon a local car lot, where I saw these words etched into the metal bed of a work truck. Just struck me as something different you don't see every day, but you think of often. 🇺🇸 #freedom #ford #truck #walking #patriotism

Wow! I just read that a trip to the movies, which used to be a "date" night, and I would imagine still is, runs around $100. Gosh, and that does not include dinner, before or after. My, how times have changed since I was a boy! #movienight

I love these, whatever they are called. Always a sign that spring is in full swing! 🌸 #spring #sunshine #springtimeflowers
Today, I reached out to my elected officials regarding the proposed military actions against Iran. Whatever our politics, the United States should stand for restraint, diplomacy, and respect for human life. I encourage others to contact their representatives and share their views.
I am being a little bit lighter in my content today. Have you ever thought about the animal that you might want as a sidekick?
