Windham County: October 2014
http://windhamcounty.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Observations from the last quiet corner. Sunday, October 19, 2014. Darn, it keeps happening. First, I went down to the Highland Festival and it turned out it was fifteen bucks admission. I thought that was excessive since once you get in you're going to spend money on haggis and bagpipe lessons and whatever, so I passed. But I did have a pleasant walk down country lanes with the beech leaves turning yellow. Sunday, October 12, 2014. What's in a name? Because the name of the town is Scotland.

Windham County: Couldn't go to work today . . .
http://windhamcounty.blogspot.com/2016/04/couldnt-go-to-work-today.html
Observations from the last quiet corner. Friday, April 22, 2016. Couldn't go to work today . . . I can hear a tractor working the cornfield down the street, I assume spreading manure at this date. The meadow is full of wildflowers - blue, white and yellow. The birds are positively symphonic. After a mild winter, the squirrels are positively obese. It's disgusting. Some of the birches are starting to leaf out, as are my fruit trees. Will the forest regime change? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Windham County: March 2016

Observations from the last quiet corner. Saturday, March 12, 2016. Welcome to the tropics. On Tuesday, the high temperature at Bradley International Airport was 81 degrees F. That broke the previous high temperature record for the date by 9 degrees. It was the earliest 80 degree reading there ever, and is the normal high temperature for June 21. It is also 36 degrees above the normal high temperature for the date. The following day also set a high temperature record. Sunday, March 6, 2016.

Windham County: I'm back
http://windhamcounty.blogspot.com/2016/11/im-back.html
Observations from the last quiet corner. Sunday, November 20, 2016. Not sure why it's been so hard for me to keep up this diary. Of course I have my other two blogs and my gainful employment consists largely of writing, so maybe I just haven't had enough energy to channel into it. But I have decided that the discipline will be good for me. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Update for Thursday, March 9, 2017. Okay, so why Trumpcare? The New Dharma Bums. Simple theme.

Windham County: Aging

Observations from the last quiet corner. Friday, November 25, 2016. She also has a reverse mortgage, which means that if we sell the house she won't have enough money to last very many years in assisted living. So she's sitting around in an early 19th Century farmhouse with five bedrooms, just her and the cat. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Update for Thursday, March 9, 2017. Okay, so why Trumpcare?

Observations from the last quiet corner. Monday, December 26, 2016. The wisdom of Solomon. I can't be too specific about the tale I am about to tell, because there is pending litigation and the parties are actually following social media to harvest evidence. They won't likely find this post because of no names but still . . . Sunday, December 4, 2016. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The wisdom of Solomon. Update for Thursday, March 9, 2017.

Windham County: September 2014
http://windhamcounty.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Observations from the last quiet corner. Sunday, September 7, 2014. That's what many people imagine to be the essence of country life. Well, it depends. I lived most of my adult life in the city and yes, there's traffic noise during the day and you'll hear people talking loudly or yelling. Sometimes people have their domestic quarrels on the sidewalk. You'll hear sirens a couple of times per hour. Wednesday, September 3, 2014. But I got to thinking. They use a tremendous amount of energy - they don't...

Windham County: February 2016
http://windhamcounty.blogspot.com/2016_02_01_archive.html
Observations from the last quiet corner. Saturday, February 27, 2016. Miracles of modern technology. In case I haven't mentioned it, I live out here amongst the idiocy of rural life*, but I work in the city, in Providence specifically. They make me park about six miles from my office which gives me a couple of nice walks each day. My path takes me through a whole lot of vacant land resulting from the relocation of a stretch of interstate highway, which has been gradually undergoing transformation. Actual...
