A Heart for Your Children

21 Feb

Our son-in-law recently offered to cut down a tree for us. We have watched its slow demise for the last few years, so we appreciated the offer very much.

Family Unity

20 Feb

For this Saturday's WPA poster, I chose this winter scene from Lake Placid in New York. I like the unusual combination of background colors.

Grammar and Morality

16 Feb

Grammar is a school subject for many people, but for me it is an everyday part of life. On many days, I spend hours going over grammar details, issues, and questions with my proofreader.
