Random wonders
When the Country Mouse (who used to be a City Mouse) goes to visit the City Mice there are always astonishing and/or wonderful sights, particularly when the trip involves quantities of driving and not-driving-while-sitting-on-I-75. You'd think I'd have lots of photos for you, but you'd be wrong. And the ones I do have are odd. It was that sort of weekend.
TLV Sunday morning
November 21, 2010
And now for something completely different–postcards from the D. We are visiting Rob the Firefighter and the Lady Alicia.

Katherine’s jellies

Katherine writes: Wonder what it says that I went to CA and the first photos I send are of jellyfish from a tank at the Monterey Aquarium? We both found the whole aquarium fascinating but […]

Everything is simply wonderful–did I mention the house is equipped with wireless […]
Postcards from Chris and Sonny
December 4, 2009
Chris and Sonny Szejbach have been lounging on the beach in Florida. Yesterday Chris wrote: I understand it is snowing at home. We had a storm last nite and the rocket launch was postponed to tonite. Hope to get pictures. We see these cruise ships come into port daily, thought I’d share. OK, I thought. […]
Donkey-patting Philistines and notions of beauty
November 29, 2009
Whenever I go to Detroit I like to go adventuring with my cousin Craig. I let him pick the adventure. He keeps up better. This time we visited the Detroit Institute of Arts to see the Richard Avedon retrospective. As you might guess, haute couture is not a big priority at the Writing Studio and […]
