Three Beautiful Things 05/31/09: These Crocs Were Made for Walkin', Paint Progress, Teen Age Baseball

1. I walked around our neighborhood a bit and then decided to venture into the Whitaker neighborhood and have a cinnamon roll and hot chocolate at Wandering Goat. I hadn't been on a walk anywhere close to this since March. I'm starting to wonder if my strength might be returning.

2. The funny names of paint don't mean Jack. Therefore, I'll show the colors when the painter is finished. But, I made the final decision on color and operations will get underway on Tuesday.

3. Wucky and I did all we could to piece together the Babe Ruth All-Star tournaments of 1967 and 1968. I wasn't on the team in '67 and was a miserable performer in '68. I really enjoy Wucky's clippings and stuff he's saved and trying to remember what happened in those games.

Three Beautiful Things 01/29/09: 3BT Makes the Classroom, Verbs Buzz, Coffee Change?

1. Daphne talked with her WR 105 students about Three Beautiful Things. Could seeing the extraordinary in the ordinary help LCC students in their scholarship applications? I sure hope so!

2. My energy has picked up considerably in the last five days. It's contagious. WR 122 buzzed this morning as we explored the power of verbs as a way of invigorating one's writing style.

3. Willa's piece in The Torch made me wonder: should I go a few blocks out of my way and pick up morning coffee and vegan danish at Wandering Goat in the mornings?
