Life on the road.
Life on the road is frustrating at times. Despite being laid back most of the time and as organized as well as know how. I guess I wouldn't be human if I said that I didn't get uptight at times. Shifting from one place to the next is stressful. Although I'm here for another 4…
Fire at breakfast.
I'm sitting in the local breakfast bar… The pancake shop in the main street. It's the first time I've had breakfast out but it was recommended, so I thought I would give it a try. It seems that everybody who is anybody is here. Families, business men, tourists, locals and ME and my Ipad. The…

The power of the weather.
I just woke to the news that 35 tornadoes http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f9/35036491001?isVid=1 hit Minnesota late yesterday. The town, not too far from where I spent a lot of time has been devastated. A small storm whipped through here yesterday afternoon, whitecaps rolled across the lake and it's still quite windy outside… I have a day to explore…
