Yesterday as I whizzed around a corner in our small town, running errands, I did a double take as a small red car passed me. There in the back seat, staring straight ahead sat POTUS. I kid you not. I saw Donald J. Trump, 45th President of these United States in all his Orange glory,…… Continue reading Strange Sighting

Haunted Hogan Creek
The two sisters open the back door, holding the laundry basket between them. It is already quite dark outside; a starless night with no light anywhere. They were supposed to get these wet towels hung on the clothes line after dinner, before going up to their room. Their mother had gotten home from work around…… Continue reading Haunted Hogan Creek
Mystery and Joy
Last week while I was driving down a side street in a small town in Indiana I saw something up ahead on the sidewalk that I could not figure out. It was sky blue, topped with a shiny silvery dome. And it was moving very slowly. As I neared the object and it became clear…… Continue reading Mystery and Joy
Doing the Right Thing
I was surprised when five year old Dylan (not his real name) broke ranks with the group of older children, most of whom he knew – one was his brother, to cross the invisible line and hand another child the pair of shoes he was holding.

She ended her story by telling me that when her beloved Robert died suddenly, after 50 years…… Continue reading He Would Not Forgive Her
You Can’t Make This S——t Up!
I have been wanting to write a new post under the Story category, which for me would mean something entertaining and funny, but currently I am bereft of ideas. In the past if I did not have something immediately in front of me that was hilarious, I’d go to my archives, that is the storehouse…… Continue reading You Can’t Make This S——t Up!
I Thought You Were a Chair
I’ve told this story numerous times, to many people and it always gets a good laugh. So I decided to share it here with a larger audience. After all, everyone loves a good story. Several years ago my husband and I were taking an early flight out of CVG [for those not familiar with the…… Continue reading I Thought You Were a Chair
