Exciting changes have been forced on website changes for this member and writer. Perhaps I am trying to do too much. Anyway, I had to make a decision on whether to continue two other websites that were not getting much traffic, and yet the costs were going up each year, which  …………. Well, it was nuts to stay there. The two new sites are up at the links below in the signature…

It may possibly go away sometime, but one has to wonder. As I wrote in June about NSA and the UK, James Bamford gave a tremendous history of our connection with the UK since and in spite of our gaining independence. They have remained our steadfast ally on the globe. The 2oth century clandestine connections are detailed in particular. Then the “Cold War” connections in late 40s…

The story of a passionate, religiously devout nineteen year old woman saving France has long been a favorite of school girls (myself included), but how realistic is it?

As the story goes, Joan was born in 1412 in Domremy, France to Jacques d’Arc and Isabelle Romee who also had a number of other children. At age 13 she began to have visions of angels while tending the animals in the fields. These visions were of the saints, Michael,…

Kathleen's Cariole Ride is the perfect book to upload for your summer vacation. The cover pic is of warbride Kathleen Kell  sitting on a special ancient toboggan (called a nubougidan by Aboriginals in Alaska and a cariole by French Canadian missionaries).

1. "It is a beautiful love story, quick read and meaningful pictures that…

The Last Olympian By Rick Riordan Smoothie Review

Believe it or not, there’s nothing to do in my small pacific northwest town and a lot of people read. And apparently I was not the only Percy Jackson fan, because where ever I turned this book, the store was sold out. So I had to order it online. And the book had to get lost in the shipping for crying…

My Enemy My Love – Review by Martha A. Cheves, Author of  Stir, Laugh, Repeat; A Book and A Dish; Think With Your Taste Buds 

This true tale begins in 1917 and glides through the roaring, optimistic Twenties. The automobile, airplane, radio, telephone and telegraph have just been invented. Prohibition is the law; flappers wear their hair in bobs; Charles Lindbergh and the Prince of Wales are super heroes.

Like most people, I didn’t think much about what my parents were like before I was born.…

I can take no credit for what follows, yet I feel inextricably connected. If you breathe, walk upright and eat with a fork, I invite you to read this in its entirety.
