Whimsical Wednesday ...


Roald Dahl has been a favorite author of mine since I was child. It is unclear to me when I first took a liking to his work. It could have been when I first read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach or The Big Friendly Giant. Whenever I came across this quote by him, I knew I had to use to for Whimsical Wednesday. Who is your favorite childhood author?

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move.
