Mother Combs, You Asked for It
Okay, then, so here goes, Mother Combs, from your: A Christmas Visit With Mother Combs A Getting to Know me Article 1) I think Christmas is mainly for kids. Don't get me wrong, it's nice when families come together, but when there is no Santa to anticipate or prepare for; the appeal for me, is gone. Honestly, no bah humbug here, though.

I Got Scammed by a Polish Transit Cop!
Let me say something: I believe people, though probably inherently good, are capable of immense and irredeemable evil. Turns out a lot of those people choose to be transit cops in Warsaw. This is not a complaint letter; I acknowledge that the system works in this way, and that a belligerent American tourist won’t change anything of note. But I thought I might as well share my story, so that people traveling to Warsaw might know what to look out for.

Don't Move to Boone, NC
The historic North Carolina town of Boone, founded in 1850, was named after the famous American pioneer and explorer Daniel Boone. And it's also the home of Appalachian State University or ASU. Due to the ever increasing number of students applying for the school every year. The town of Boone has become mainly a college town. With a fair number of apartment housing units and employment opportunities for students needing income to cover their education. Appalachian State is also famous for it's sports program. Such as the ASU Mountaineers college football team on ESPN. A small handful of big city conveniences that can be found within the county side. With many things that tourists can also enjoy. Including restaurants, shops, live sporting events, etc... Of course Boone also offers health care for when needed. From dentist offices to a fully staffed hospital.

The Brushstroke of Time. Content Warning.
In the charming town of Willowbrook, nestled on the banks of a tranquil river, there stood a centuries-old art gallery known as "The Brushstroke of Time." It was a place where art came to life in the most unexpected way, and where the past and present danced together through the magical power of time travel. This is the story of a gallery that held secrets as vivid as the paintings it showcased and a mystery that transcended the boundaries of time itself.

Montréal vs. Toronto. Top Story - October 2023.
Another summer is heading to the hills… That means that winter is coming to Montreal and many of my friends in England, Australia and anywhere else where the sun will keep shining past five in the evening wonder why I am still here. Why put up with the cold, the ice you don’t always see until it is under your back, the loss of mobility and the unending snow?

Florida vs California. What I miss and what I don't.. Top Story - October 2023.
I've lived in Florida for nearly twenty years, and it was starting to feel like I'd never leave. However, that changed earlier this year, and I now find myself on the opposite coast of the USA. Are there some things that I miss in Florida? Sure. However, there are plenty of things that I don't, and IMO, good riddance!

SUMMER NITES
SUMMER NITES A great place to spend your summer nights! *~* So many people, these days are too busy to take a fun-filled vacation but when they do, they probably prefer cruising. Can’t blame them. You get the air, the water, entertainment, food, and sightseeing all rolled into one. However, as good as cruising sounds, it’s also restrictive.

Honest Thoughts on Norwegian Cruise Lines
We all have nightmare travel stories, and usually, we think back on them after a while and reflect with a good laugh and shudder at the thought of the past trauma. I want to look back from a few years ago about a trip I took and hope to share some insights about what to do and what not to do when booking a cruise vacation for you or your family and maybe you can avoid some of the disastrous headaches that would have you feeling as if you never went on a vacation at all. I have traveled extensively throughout my life and typically planned everything myself. I thought that perhaps it would be a nice change if someone else did most of the planning for a change, and I left most of it up to someone else, and all I would have to do was show up.

A Bit Of The Titanic In Alnwick
Introduction Fiona told me that the White Swan Hotel in Alnwick contained some artefacts from the RMS Olympic which was the sister ship to the Titanic. On checking It turns out that the main dining room (Olympic Restaurant) is effectively the First Class Lounge from the ship which is identical to the one on the Titanic.
