Tip of My Iceberg

If you can't see it, is it real?

  • Rain, Rain, Go..Nah, Stay!

    I left Washington D.C. amidst rain and arrived in Orlando in a thunderstorm. I was grateful to get out of D.C. before another torrential drenching. I’ve sat on too many tarmacs waiting for storms to pass. Rain on both ends. As we approached Orlando, the captain came on and told us we’d be in a…

  • When Water Wins The Day

      It’s so easy to dissuade a child from a bad attitude. Give them a bucket of water and a ladle. Or a sink full of water and a turkey baster. Or, better yet, a water table. I’ve been in Virginia with Melody and Chris and their children. My task has been to keep Sloane…

  • The New Never Gets Old

      He made his entrance in a very planned, very orderly way. Completely different from his most recent cousins. He wasn’t in a hurry. He was a bit upset leaving “home”. Warden Mark Sibben was born Tuesday morning at 7:57 a.m. Caesarean-section. Not an easy one. I watched my daughter and her husband as they…

  • When Fun Turns Fearful

    We had our yearly barbecue Saturday. Close to a hundred people—all ages—attended. What an outrageously fun time. It was supposed to rain all day, which would have put a damper on water slides, outdoor eating and creative play space for close to fifty kids. It didn’t. The weather evened out; the clouds actually diminished some…

  • Be Careful Who–Or What–You Listen To

    I’m directionally challenged. If the sun’s shining and I vaguely know what time of day it is, I can somewhat guess the points on a compass. After that, everything’s up for grabs. Back in the day, before GPS became easy, I’d stop at gas stations for directions. I carried a notebook for this purpose–I could…
