Surprising Encounters...
August 3, 2026 My son said it was a “Slingshot,” made by Polaris. I had never heard of Polaris, and the half-car, half-tricycle I saw in the grocery store parking lot in Elgin, Ontario, looked like a machine designed to start conversations. It had no doors, but it did have a gullwing roof, two front wheels, and one very large rear wheel. Its owner was a short, slight, bearded older man with a…

Dealing with Hiccups: a Family Vacation Story
July 28, 2026 a family vacation at the cottage. Our family vacation at the cottage turned into a string of challenges that demanded quick thinking and creative solutions. The trouble began on Thursday, just one day before everyone was due to arrive. The water pump stopped working: no pump, no water, no flushing. My family, all urban dwellers, were not accustomed to outdoor toilets, and the old…

Emergency Ward Surveys: a Patient's Perspective
July 14, 2026 I could not believe the survey questions about my overnight stay in a hospital emergency ward. Let me give you my experience in a few sentences and then describe the survey. I went into the emergency ward at 8:30pm having a disturbance in my left eye; storm clouds darkened my vision. After a couple of hours, I entered an examination room and thought this would be a short visit;…

My Emergency Department Experience
July 6. 2026 Once I finished cleaning my rusty tools at the cottage, I bent over to pick them up when suddenly huge storm clouds floated across the left eye. Stunned, I stood up to get hold of myself and to make sense of the moving clouds that were quite pretty. Some of the darker clouds blocked my eyesight. Just as suddenly as the clouds had arrived, they cleared in a few seconds; they moved up…

My Retirement from Gardening
June 23, 2026 Nature was not listening when I announced my retirement from gardening to Kathy. The hostas kept growing. The periwinkle took over the grass and covered the steppingstones leading to the backyard. I expressed my displeasure several times in colorful words, but to no avail, the plants have been growing, creating a jungle-like landscape that I like. However, Kathy did not accept my…

Celebrating Years of Marriage: the Questions they Could Have Asked
June 14, 2026 We recently celebrated our 60th anniversary with thirty close friends, yet no one asked how we met, where we were married, whether we had a honeymoon, or where we went. I had no intention of giving a speech or offering advice on a long marriage, but I was prepared to say a few words if someone asked. A few days before inviting friends, Kathy and I debated whether to celebrate our…

The Commencement Speeches...
May 23, 2026 Forty thousand people showed up at the NC State commencement speech for 2026 at the Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, NC. We left the Marriott Hotel near RDU airport early in the morning, where we stayed the night before, to get in line with other parents, grandparents, and family to enter the stadium in time for the security check and find a good place from where to watch the…

Bike Theft at Hotel and Digital Locks
May 16, 2026 This episode happened in Greenville, SC, on May 6. We came to cycle in GA, SC, NC, and VA, had our bikes on a Thule bike rack fastened to the back of the car, and locked with a plastic-covered braided wire cable. Well, the bikes were stolen overnight at the La Quinta, Heywood Hotel, where we stayed a couple of years ago, and we thought it was a safe place to leave the bikes on the…
