Somehow Bean Blossom’s domain registration lapsed, and has been grabbed by a cybersquatter, who is offering it for sale for an unreasonable profit. Bean Blossom has two new web addresses. They hope you can visit them at one of their new addresses and get more information our upcoming festivals including the Bill Monroe Memorial Bean [...]

Recently, most of the people who used a search engine to find this blog arrived via Bing. The most interesting thing about the searches is that they seem to contain only one keyword, and the searchers probably were not looking for content similar to my blog. When I recreated the searches at bing.com, it appears [...]

You might notice that I took a few minutes to update my countdown timer. I’m not sure how useful the darn thing is, but I enjoy it. I don’t put every move we’re making on that, after some things are totally left to chance! There are some fun bluegrass events included, so look it over, [...]

I have not idea what is wrong with the Blogoversary widget. I’m taking it down today, and I’ll add my next blog anniversary to the count down timer. According to the widget, the anniversary for this blog is 17 days off, but that is wrong. I made my first post on this blog on May [...]

I think I need this thing. I was just looking out the window, and I think I would be able to use it pretty soon. Don’t you want it, too? It even has a website.

Well, I’ve been busy. After my day at the Library of Michigan Wednesday, I spent Thursday playing catch up. I’m not there, but almost. I spend some time in the yard, finally! It sure felt good to be outside. I raked one of the ditches near the street and hauled the leaves to the still [...]

Papa and I had a wonderful time yesterday at our friend Jimmy’s benefit show, Pickin’ on Cystic Fibrosis. So wonderful, I took a great nap after we got home this afternoon. When we arrived I realized there was Internet access from the facility; but social networking sites were blocked. No, I don’t have a fancy [...]

Someone over on Scanfest asked about my choppers. Well, actually they asked about my pool boy, but I don’t really have pool boys. I went out to check the daffodils on April 1 and here is what I found, they have yellow tips and about are ready to blossom. Additionally, there was a chopper and [...]

For all my friends who need to understand, Common Craft does it again! This is, “Computer Software in Plain English”. I wish these simple explanations were around when my Mom was asking, “How does it work?” Really, she needed to know every detail. She had one of those minds that couldn’t just accept, she probed [...]

The crappy stock market, my horrible sinus headache, the dust, none of it could out-do the sun this morning. It’s pretty darn cold outside, but the sun is shinning in (and showing the dust!) The outside of the bathroom door is painted, first coat. The wash is started, the garbage and recycling at the curb, [...]
