70s Summertime Fun

Water 💦 Wiggle Amazing that we lived to tell the tale.  What’s your favorite summertime activity/ memory? As always more to come.

70s Summertime Fun

I’m really loving this throwback feature. If it were June 19, 1972 instead of June 19, 2026, we’d definitely have out the water wiggle. And that thing went wild and would wrap around you and practically knock your lights out. 

Like a lot of the toys of yesteryear, safety was not a prime consideration 🙃. 

As always, more to come.

Haiku Fridays with J-Dub #8

Welcome to Haiku Fridays with J-Dub. Each week, I’ll post a haiku and a photo to spark reflection, emotion, or imagination.

Your challenge is simple: write your own haiku inspired by it—or on any theme that moves you—and share it in the comments.

Short, simple, powerful haiku—tiny poems that carry a big wallop. Capture a moment, a feeling, a memory—whatever comes through in 11 (3-5-3) or 17 (5-7-5) syllables. There’s no pressure, no judging, just a space to create and share.

This is about voice, reflection, and the quiet power of small poems.

Let the games continue.
