Long time... Longwood

Sometimes when we get busy and we go our separate ways, we lose sight of how long it's been. My friend, Marcy, is someone I used to work with. I have always enjoyed her energy, her love of life, and her creativity. We live about 150 miles apart and it's been too long since we've seen each other. So today we each drove to Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania (about 2 hrs for her and an hour and a half for me) and we enjoyed a great time together. From the walk in the meadow to the tasty lunch to the conservatory and the gardens, every moment was fun and it was so good to catch up. We even got to spend an hour or so with Phyllis, who lives nearby. It was a time of fun, friends, and flowers. I've tried to capture some of it in the video below.

Social Media Fast Day 1/2 I have been considering a social media fast.  Unbeknownst to me, someone I know was on a week long fast. She reported about how beneficial it was and I took that as a confirmation that this was the time for me. September 1 sneaked up on me and I had some commitments for posting some prayer requests, but once that was done, I uninstalled Facebook (my primary Social Media) form my phone. I can pretty well ignore Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn and the like but Facebook is my constant itch that I have to keep scratching. I came to the realization that I primarily use Facebook to feed my desire for approbation.  Don't we all want to be admired and respected?  Don't we often want to be right, to have a forum where others are agreeing with our brilliance?  LOL I'm guilty. I also realize the other downside of social media for me and that's all the political vitriol.  As much as I don't get sucked into it, as much as I scroll past...

Baseball Thoughts on a Winter Day

I can't stop thinking about baseball. I'm happy for the moment (winter and all) but it would be so nice if it were a hot August night and we were watching the O's at Camden Yards. So I made this video today. It's some O's game footage from personal photography, misc. photos (amateur baseball players), and scans of much of my Orioles memorabilia from the early eighties. I hope you enjoy it.

Just a few more memories

There were a few photos that I didn't post on the entry about our trip to Boca Raton.  I'm sure I have a bunch more in various places. I figure we gained 7 pounds, 700 friends, 7,000 memories and 7,000,000 photographs. Video from Awards Night
