Cloak of Kindness

Hello to all you fine folks. I was sitting here taking a small walk down memory lane. This is what old folks do every once in a while. It takes up some time and gives me an excuse for not getting stuff done. I am not sure if having a good memory is a curse […]

Home at Last

I looked out the fifth-floor hotel window Monday morning, December 18, and saw horizontal rain, people rushing with twisted umbrellas, and water crashing against Old Port’s wharf.
