Dudley!

It's not often a child actor transitions well to a successful acting career as an adult, but Harry Melling has, imo, done so brilliantly ... and unexpectedly.

I had the opportunity to go sailing in Baltimore's Inner Harbor Saturday, a full-sun, in-the-70s day in November! It was spectacular. Company and…

Llama Mama

I had a lovely Facebook-inspired experience yesterday. A week or so ago, I was looking at the "friends are going to these events" notices on FB and saw there was an alpaca and fleece festival/event happening at the Howard County Fairgrounds, about 20 minutes from my home. I RSVPed, added the event to my calendar and…
