We got our Gold Stars today. I’m talking about the Gold Star that should appear on your driver’s license if you want to use your drivers license to board an airplane. The new requirement goes into effect next October. So, although we have a year to comply, the Bonello’s are planners. Monty looked up the […]
The Internet provides inspiration to travel around the world. The pictures provided are just like being there, in some cases, even better than being there. From our armchair we can appreciate Mona Lisa’s rueful smile and maybe long to see the painting in person. Sometimes the experience is ‘not exactly’ what we expect. I want to […]
I found the most delightful book on prayer tucked away on a back shelf of the library. Sybil MacBeth wrote this charming book entitled Praying in Color. She has a marvelous way of enjoying conversations with God that really resonated with me. Some of her observations made me smile as I realized I have similar […]
My brother, Bert, was born on October 18, 1929. He was one of the good guys, the kind of guy you’d want your daughter to bring home to meet the family. He passed away Christmas morning 2016, we would be celebrating his 90th birthday today. In my book, Bert was the best big brother ever, […]
Some of our favorite things are found in Maine: stately lighthouses perched on rugged coastlines, crashing waves on rocky outcroppings blueberry muffins to die for and fresh lobsters right out of the water.

I’ve previously written about my love/hate relationship with the refrigerator and grocery shopping. This relationship has become more strained in the last few days. My kids have a completely different philosophy about grocery shopping than I do. They go to the store and pick up what they need for a day, maybe two. They have […]
We hear a lot about the number three. I don’t know that it is any more important than any other number but three is mentioned a lot. You know: the Three Little Pigs, Three Musketeers and, of course the Three Stooges Three pictures in a grouping is pleasing to the eye. Even Sheldon knocks […]
Last week when I sat down at the computer there was an URGENT alert notifying us our storage space was about to reach max. How could that happen? Hmmm maybe it could be getting crowded up in the Cloud. Do we have our own Cloud or are we sharing our Cloud with someone else? I […]
Here’s the Google description of a blog – “Short for Web log, a blog is a Web page that serves as a publicly accessible personal journal for an individual. Typically updated daily, blogs often reflect the personality of the author.” Well, I’m certainly glad we cleared that up! My son, Greg, writes a blog about […]
