A Journal to impart knowledge and facts
July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

Owl with signature The Boston Waterfront and other places to dance.


These large hotels with their beautiful views, for some reason always bring to mind end time novels I've read. Then I begin to imagine how they would be used if the worst upset in the country ever came to past. I need to write a song called, "Too much fiction comes to mind." Lyrics anyone??

Fenway Park has been the home of the Boston Red socks since 1912. That's more time than I've been on the earth. I'm glad it's older than me. Lots of people reminding me of my age lately, I'm not sure whether they are envious or dismayed?



this is Billy Joel's 5th year to appear at Fenway Park:

In the middle of the night *Cool*
I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To a river so deep
I must be looking for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross
And even though I know the river is wide
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
And try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find out what I've been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep
And I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I would never lose
Something somebody stole
I don't know why I go walking at night
But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is that I've been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To a river so deep
I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night
I'm not sure about a life after this
God knows I've never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That runs to the promised land
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night

Also, yesterday on the news I saw an area police force put on a musical rendition of a Michael Jackson song. It was done along side of a movie playing of Jackson doing the part himself. It was such a great performance and done as a social outreach to the community. Hope the community involved enjoyed it because it was a great show.
