IMG_0472.JPG Originally uploaded by Miss Abigail. At our Thanksgiving celebration in Florida, we have an ornament contest (often using natural items found on the beaches and surrounding area). Here was my last-minute entry, made after I was done mashing two bags of potatoes and just prior to eating dinner. Much to my delight, it was […]
On the Way Home
Free wireless at the Fort Myers airport, woohoo. I’m heading home today. Book signing and reading on Friday was a lot of fun. Sold some books and entertained the crowd while out on the front porch of the book store. It was quite lovely. And there was a guy there from a wellness center on […]
Blogging Poolside
To those of you out there with unsecured wireless networks on the Gulf side of Sanibel Island: thank you for allowing me to tap into your wireless so I can check my email and post this while sitting by the pool (and, you might want to secure your network next time). Florida’s been fun although […]

It’s called The Mysterious Jamestown Suitcase. This one is particularly good, with some wonderful new characters (Elmo and Feather Phigg) […]

Please come on by and do your holiday shopping early! This book is the perfect gift for absolutely everyone! OK, OK — small […]
1949: Politics
Unless you’ve been living in a cave with no contact with the outside world, you’re probably aware that it is election time here in the U.S. of A. No matter what your affiliation, or how sick you are of all of the negative campaign ads, this is what democracy is all about! Thinking of a […]
