Yes, if you took the time to comment you are a [...]

I Love Fairweather

October 12, 2009

No, that wasn’t a typo. I like good weather, sure. But, I love Fairweather Lewis! She’s a blogger that my friend Jamie (another blogger I love) told me about. All month long, in honor of Halloween, Fairweather Lewis has been featuring ghost stories! Don’t you like ghost stories? Fairweather [...]

“They” Say “It” Happens in “Threes”

June 3, 2009

I don’t know what “it” is, and I don’t know who “they” are. My Mamaw always said, “Good things happen in threes.” Other folks say, “bad things happen in threes.” Why does “three” seems to be a magical number in these superstitions? Even when storytellers relate a tale, things happen in [...]

It’s Halloween tonight, and the children will be running through the streets on a mission to fill bags with candy. But, some believe that spirits walk tonight. It’s a good time to sit in front of a fire and tell spooky ghost stories. Because sophiagurl wants it (and what she wants, she [...]

Thursday Thirteen #9—A Ghost Hunt

May 9, 2007

Though I had stayed at Ye Kendall Inn in Boerne last November, I didn’t have the forethought to have my camera with me at the time. I was disappointed not to have been able to capture the beauty of the place. I also didn’t know the history of the hotel; so I didn’t [...]

Serena of the River. A Texas Tale.

April 17, 2007

Imagine a bundle of energy packed in a 5′8″ frame, with a shock of almost orange hair, a face covered in freckles, and a laugh that starts as the sound of a chicken cackling over a newly laid egg and ends as a donkey’s bray. If you’ve got that in your mind, it’s [...]

At The Catfish Plantation, You Get More Than You Pay For

April 4, 2007

I had a hankerin’ for fried fish. I like to eat fried crappie (that’s pronounced like “croppy”) but you have to catch crappie for yourself, and I don’t fish. I did until Daddy made me bait my own hook and take my own fish off the line. Those squishy worms were nasty, [...]

Haunted Eureka

January 5, 2007

Yesterday I wrote that my husband and I chose to stay at The Crescent Hotel when we went to Eureka Springs, Arkansas for a visit. I said that we wanted local flavor and didn’t want the intimacy of a bed and breakfast. I lied. We stayed at The Crescent, because it’s haunted.
I confess that the [...]
