A House
Have you ever thought about losing or having to sell your house? Or maybe a relative’s house? Do you get emotional thinking about the history and memories made in your home? I admit I do. Grandpa’s death when I was a teenager gave me a whole new perspective on life and memories and knowledge of…

A Madison Evening
When we arrived in Madison, Sunday night we immediately looked for restaurants. Take a guess? What was the top food fare in the city? Clifty Falls Park was quite the exercise regimen we needed.

The truth seems hard to come by for our media bees. Although something…

Anniversary Memories
Today would have been my Grandpa Leo’s and Grandma Betty’s 77th Wedding Anniversary. This year makes nearly 24 years since she has celebrated the day alone without her other half. I can only understand this to a certain point personally not having the relationship they had. If the number of people at my Grandpa’s funeral…
