Type A Travels: Start Spreadin the News

April 20, 2018April 21, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 10 Comments

This little blast from the past reminded me of a time I wore make-up...exactly 1000 years ago. I was a young … Continue reading Make / UP – A beauty which doesn’t fade

Fun Friday: Arizona Camp and John Wayne

April 6, 2018April 6, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 4 Comments

I grew up with him. John Wayne movies were numero-uno in my midwestern house. Dad liked the Duke. Somehow, John Wayne always saved the day. With his gravelly voice (it sounded like rocks slowly rolling down a hill) John  said the right thing (even if it was in an awkward man’s man way) Best of … Continue reading Fun Friday: Arizona Camp and John Wayne

  Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. - 1 Thess 15-18 The guy in the car next to me is staring at me.

Fun Friday: Ode to my Overalls

March 23, 2018June 21, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 2 Comments

My woolen overalls are 40 years old. This may their last journey. I christened my last camping trip by falling flat on my face in the rocks, ripping the threadbare knees in two places. As for the rest of the trousers, the outlook is bleak. Deep pockets flap in sloppy fashion. Backsides have been mended … Continue reading Fun Friday: Ode to my Overalls
