A nice poem from the late Carl Sandburg My head knocks against the stars.My feet are on the hilltops.My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.I have been to hell and back many times.I know…

One thing I have developed, is a hobby of vinyl. Yes, I know some people are asking. Why would I collect them when we have all these capabilities to listen to them through apps such as Spotify, Pandora, iTunes, or Amazon? Well, to be honest its more nostalgia and reminiscing memories. The Hobby began in…

Went on a nice little hike this morning. My better half was out getting her first Covid Vaccine which was great to know. I am still waiting on when I am eligible. I take these hikes because of the view but also to clear my mind. I always have something running in my head. From…

My name is Michael and I am recently retired. I am here because I am looking for new creative outlets and I figured I would try a blog. I will do my best to stay on top of this. I will cover events in my life, my interests, thoughts, and things going in my life.…
