What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever found (and kept)? I was going to say my sanity, but hey, I’ll leave that one there as a tasteless joke. One very hot two-week long proper deep in the bush camping trip, my kids and I were exploring the part of the river bed that was used for…

WP and more …
What are your favorite websites? WordPress, to read the daily prompt, hopefully it’s an inspired one and not some inane “what’s your favourite?” .

I’d whisper softly
Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live? Like many others (or so I imagine) I would readily go back in time to visit my younger self. However, having said that I wouldn’t wish to relive those parts of my life again, but rather gently counsel and influence how I saw…
