The Cat in the Castle

Don’t forget to go to http://www.alfiedog.com for a list of both children’s adults’ stories to download.

The fee is minimal and the stories are excellent….

The link is in the right-hand column. Why not see what they have to offer.

What a Surprise!!!

I just heard via email that a poem of mine that was published last year “November Afternoon” was selected as one of nineteen poems to be included in “Strong Voices – A Year of of Touch by The Journal of Healing a print magazine.

It will be for sale on their website and on Amazon.com.

I will send a link when it’s available.

Surprises are great especially when your writing or photo is recognized.

Little League Is the Best!!!!

We just returned from a few days in Maryland.

We went to a 7 year old Little League game. These boys were great hitters and they had as much fun participating as the folks in the bleachers.

Our 7 year old grandson took the stance of major league players and played as though he was in a championship game.

It was thoroughly enjoyable. No time for writing this weekend.

Analysis of Games for Boys and Girls

For all of you who read my blog, my eleven year old grandson just started his own blog on WordPress. If you have youngsters go to http://www.mstpierre10.wordpress.com

He critiques games for boys and girls who are his age and younger.

He’s just getting started but he has the writing “bug” already.

Spring is Definitely Upon Us

Spring has arrived in New England.

Wherever you look crocuses are blooming, daffodils are bobbing their yellow heads, the forsythia bushes are a vibrant yellow and magnolia trees and the plum trees are flowering.

Blink twice and it will all disappear.

Old Sturbridge Village

Just returned from a mini vacation to Old Sturbridge Village in Massachusetts with our grandson Marc.

If you live in New England be sure to bring your children/grandchildren to the colonial village.

Just a worthwhile trip back in time to see a Carting Mill, Blacksmith Shop, Shoe Maker, Grist Mill, etc. and to view the houses, churches, and small one room school house.

The entire whole family can be educated and have fun at the same time.

Tonight Was Award Night

Our local photo exhibit reception was tonight.

It was great fun with a band and lots of food.

Neither my grandson nor I won any awards with our photos. The photos submitted were amazing and we were glad to be part of exhibit.

Here is his photo entry.
