If you feel like you are caught in a financial quagmire and money is as scarce as good manners thanks to hard times, well, you are not alone.
But if you are fortunate to have a job and the moral support of a strong and loving family, there are ways to do more with less, without depriving ourselves of enjoying life's small but treasured pleasures. Where ever you live, there is always something to do, and it doesn't mean you have to take a small loan to have some fun.
Stayed tuned to this blog, and hopefully, we all can share of a few ideas where we can entertain our children without the aid of a computer or a television set.
This blog was born out of grief over the loss of several loved ones and a series of stressful events that traumatized this wonderful family. Call it therapy for the soul. As a journalist, I figured that writing stories about the positive moments in our lives is more appealing than wallowing in sadness. Enjoy!

Out and about
Take a walk on the wild side around New England's outdoors. Come walk with my son and I as we explore state parks, historic sites, and creepy cemeteries. This is the good stuff in life, and there is nothing worth watching on television, anyway. Join us as we take advantage of Maine's beaches and pristine forests. In between our sojourns through the Pine Tree State, look for political insight and a few well-written opinion pieces as well.
