Musings: Stories of bygone days, poems, and inspirational thoughts

“Go home old fart. You’re not worth killing anyway”. The big buck threw one more rock at the old man and uttered another expletive or two before deciding to move on. Henry dodged the rock and breathed a big sigh of relief because his rifle was still jammed. Step into the pages of Musings and meet the talking deer that threw rocks. Be further entertained by the story of the headless turtle or join the Wilsons as they dine on an “old skinny duck”.You are invited to join us in your mind on a two-week trek to Alaska in December and help us deal with the shenanigans of a gassy whippet named Wendy and a crazy white cat named Snowflake. Perhaps you can rescue us by explaining to the motel manager why the bedspread and carpet are shredded. Wade, as we did, through deep snow and twenty-six degrees below zero to an old wooden outhouse atop Steamboat mountain. You can lend a hand as we set aright our overturned station wagon in the Yukon Territory. Have you ever peered up into the night sky over Alaska and wanted to pull down the dancing curtains of colorful light and take them home? Experience the norther lights with me. I call them prom dresses in the sky.For any who believe in God, some inspirational thoughts are included to both encourage and comfort the reader as God directs. Did you ever wonder how five special nails could turn the world upside down? Do you often not ask God for “small things” because you don’t want to bother Him with trivial matters? What about God’s depth of forgiveness of sin? These questions and more are included in Musings: Stories of bygone days, poems, and inspirational thoughts.
