try, try again

I once had a blog called 'Seattle's Sleeping' I can't find any evidence of it anymore. I suppose Blogger ate it for lack of posting.

They were correct in doing so.

I want to try again- so here goes.

I'm motivated by my new friend fiwa and my own feeling of missing blogging


Waconda Road runs through the bottom of the Willamette River Valley near Salem, Oregon.

Both sides of my family had farms there. The soil is so rich you can pick it up and make it a clump in your hand.

I'm part of that dirt - I love it there.

I was born on the 28th of February 1963 - I guess that makes me 44 - but I don't dwell on age much.

My lover and partner is a few years younger then me - (a fine strapping lad is he) we've been together for 21 years come March.

so this is my intial introduction - not sure where I'll take this blog - but it's a start.
