Mother Nature surprised us up here in Loring with about 4 inches of good wet snow! I'm just estimating the depth, but it sure seemed thick on the car. The hills are starting to green up so we are happy! I'm still on the lookout for the goldfinches, yellow warblers, and Orioles!

I’ve been called a lot of things over the years, but this was a new one. A concerned reader, upset over my opinion in a recent column, referred to me as a self-righteous liberal. I was aghast. Me? Morally superior? I simply point out things I see and state an opinion on them. It’s not always even my opinion. Sometimes I just like to poke the bear. Makes for a better read. I hope my columns on occasion prompt discussion, even if it’s often what a jerk I must be to have written what I did. A colum...

A lot of feelings. A lot of emotions. The older I get, the more I miss my family back home. The older I get, the stronger my young sons get. The shows that...
