A Beautiful Walk

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 10h

So…what to do after eating a cheeseburger and fries for lunch? Go for a walk to burn off the calories, of course! On the way out of Illinois I stopped at the Kickapoo Rail Trail near Danville, Illinois. This is one of nearly...

Restraining Order Ignored!

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 20h

Hi, everyone!! Instant update time. It’s Marie and me, back at the scene of the crime last year. They let us back in with a stern warning…and we ignored it, of course. More later, but for...

Sunny Songs: Invisible Sun

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 22h

Howdy from the home of the University of Illinois! I’m having lunch with Marie in an hour or so, but first I have to brighten your day with a song that has “sun” in the title. Here’s today’s not-too-cheery song of optimism....

Well, howdy! I’m in eastern Illinois tonight. I’m meeting a myLotter for lunch tomorrow before heading off to Kickapoo Rail Trail, then to Lafayette, Indiana for a couple of days of history. Then it’s on to Fort Wayne to see my...

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 9 Jul

Road trip time! But first, music time! You knew these guys would show up, but this probably isn’t the song you were expecting. I like to surprise a little…just not too much. Here’s today’s sunny...

Revisiting Daniel Mayer

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 8 Jul

About a month ago I went to Camp Breckenridge in western Kentucky and raved about the great museum they have there, devoted to the prisoner of war camp that was established there in the 1940s for German (and later, Italian)...

Sunny Songs: I Don’t Care If the Sun Don’t Shine

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 8 Jul

Howdy! It’s time for another song extolling the virtues of the sun…well, at least with “sun” in the title. Last month I did the moon, and I ignored this guy. Turnabout’s fair play, so I’m using his lesser-known version of this...

Our Precious Loss

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 7 Jul

Today I went to Radcliff, which is a town just outside of the Fort Knox Army post. I made a couple of stops, one of which was the memorial you see in the photo. I’ve passed it a million times: the sign around mile marker 41 on...

Ooh, yuck. I’m (ick) making plans for a trip?! I like spontaneity, but unfortunately the boat rides only run on weekends, even in summer. Darn. Oh, well. Here’s a sunny song for a sunny time (which we...

When I started this list, as with most of the countdowns, I’m sure there were a few song titles that went through your mind. Hopefully today’s sunny song is one of those. There are some songs that are obvious inclusions on lists,...

Sunny Songs: Cinderella Sunshine

Four Walls @FourWalls (76520) • United States 5 Jul

This morning I heard my next-door neighbors’ dog that they’re babysitting (it’s their son’s dog) barking, so that means he survived the fireworks. No problems (aside from the loud noise) on our block, and I hope it was the same...

Happy Independence Day, America! Hey, and England? No hard feelings. Yes, we’re officially 249 years old today. And, since it’s July, it’s sunny and hot here. That calls for another song with “sun” (or some...
