The smallest Post Office in the United States is in Ochopee, Florida in the Everglades.
With a total of 61 square feet, it used to be a storage unit for irrigation pipes for an adjacent tomato farm. A fire had destroyed the...

I finally broke down and started watching Outer Banks on Netflix. I made it about 1/2 way through the pilot episode. So far, I'm not very impressed.
The first thing that hit me was the reference to the rich end of the island as...

This postcard looks as if it should come from London, but it's from the US. It's not an old postcard, but it's made to look like one. I know this because I've seen it for sale on Amazon.
The sweet lady that sent it wrote "may all...

Hi! So I just wanted to write something up quick of a few of the places I had been to while on my east coast trip a couple of weeks ago. I ended up driving through the southern part of Virginia, through North Carolina's outer...

I mentioned earlier that I would post more elk photos that I took in the Smoky Mountains in North Carolina. This one is my favorite as she was standing right by the road and was just about 4 feet away from the car.
Of course I...

This photo was taken during our recent trip to Gatlinburg and the Smoky Mountains. We decided to take a drive over to North Carolina to see how things had changed and on the way we were treated to this herd of elk.
Elk were...

Hi friends!
We made it home from South Florida to Southern Connecticut in a mere 18 hours and 24 minutes. We left Florida at 9:20 AM after a safe send off by friends. We arrived home in Connecticut at 3:44 AM....

It's actually winter, or atleast it's supposed to be.
Mama Nature, you seem to want to give us more spring like temps and rain. You deliver some cold temps over night, but we've not yet had any of that white stuff that falls...

A very lovey state. Its a mix and can see why its a up for grabs state between democrats and republicans. Still more of a southern state. Usually goes with the Republicans, but Obama upset that trend in his first term. I been to...

The camera in my phone is currently of no use (it causes my phone to shut down). My techie son has ordered a new battery and if that doesn’t solve the problem I’ll be in the market for a new phone.
Meanwhile, I’ve been scanning...

Quite a few years ago we traveled to North Carolina. One of the stops that we made was in Asheville to see the Biltmore Estate, the largest privately owned residence in the United States. What overwhelmed me was the massive size...

Don't you hate when you thought you took a picture but it didn't go through? I swear I did, but I took it on snapchat and it didn't go through apparently.
I met a "fren" at Old Salem Today. Old Salem is a Moravian Museum and...

I don't know how much the rest of the country is aware of this, but there is a huge vote-tampering scandal in the race for North Carolina's 9th Congressional District in the U.S. House.
When the votes were counted on election...

"Sister Bachhof brought Sister Graff an affirmative answer to the proposal that she should marry Brother George Schmidt."
This was written on January 7th of 1780. Now, I am assuming this is in line with the beliefs of the...

Okay, this may end up being long. I am going to try to keep it as short and sweet as possible. I might end up breaking it up into a three part thing actually.
Tanglewood is a massive park in a little township (actually village,...

A "brown out", for those unaware, is when the power flickers on and off.
One just happened about ten minutes ago, and another about three minutes after the first.
I've had my phone on the charger for a few minutes already, so...

I am going to make this as short as I possibly can.
I came across this and it reminded me of another story that I have told here (or perhaps another site) several years ago. In that story I told about a man who was so bereaved...

You should know by now that I have always been fascinated with any information about Australia. I read a lot about that country and watch documentaries any chance I get.
So, I learned about this plant. In the Australian bush...

I’ve learned that some people stay in one place all their lives and others move around a lot. Personally, I have moved a LOT. And not always because I wanted to move.
I’m hoping that I will not have to move again, because I am...
