Whale Watching!

Ever try to take a picture of a sea lion feeding frenzy? This time of year, off the SoCal coast, the whales are returning to Alaska from Mexico, and whale watching tours are a way of life. It’s fun to have a leisurely luncheon overlooking one of the harbors, then ...

Happy New Year!

It’s a bright new year, with a clean slate ahead of us. I choose to believe the forces of evil will be defeated, humor will return to the media, and we are all smart enough to know politicians won’t change anything. It’s up to us to make a difference in ...

Hobbies?

Once upon a time, in a place far away… I used to have hobbies. I’d sew quilts for cold winter evenings, embroider pillows for rocking chairs, paint Christmas ornaments… What happened to those times? What do people do for hobbies these days? Binge watch streaming TV? I still hike, so ...

All Work, No Play, Makes Life Dull

I know I tend to make the writer’s life sound glamorous and exciting—or at least not boring. But the truth is, it’s more fun to write about interesting things, and not the day-to-day routine. So here we are at the end of the dog days of summer. We don’t travel ...

North to Alaska

I don’t know if you remember that song. I’m sure it dates me. After last year’s exhausting trip to Egypt, we vowed to make our next one simple, so we booked a lovely small ship cruise around Alaska’s coastline. We foolishly thought it would be a short trip from here ...
