Boom! It’s almost summer!

June 14, 2025


The fins.

I love them!

Evocative of an age, aren’t they? Of course, the colors aren’t authentic. Still, they make the image even more fun. It’s summer, after all. Almost. And who doesn’t love a vintage convertible?

So let’s see what our weekly blogging team is up to as the weather warms up.

Laurie

Have you read Laurie’s book: “Tail Wags and Whiskers”? Here’s an excerpt: ”We arrived home, and I brought the dog out of the car on a leash, letting Poopsie sniff around the front yard. In moments, 3-year-old Paul burst out the front door, overjoyed, with my dad following closely behind. At that moment, Randy came home from work, cruising slowly down the driveway, looking confused by this strange spectacle on his front lawn…”

Meryl

June 14th has been a memorable day for Meryl Baer of Musings of s Shore Life since childhood. She explains why in this week’s post, and digresses to this year’s happenings on this date.

Rita

The No Kings rally at the capital in Olympia, Washington, was a big success with more than 5,000 people attending and lots of creative signs, reports Rita R. Robison, consumer and personal finance journalist. However, Robison wishes the country wasn’t in the state of crisis that President Trump and his backers have thrust on the nation.

Rebecca

Rebecca Olkowski, with BabyBoomster.com, attended a book signing for author Suzy Welch, who wrote a book called Becoming You: The Proven Method for Crafting Your Authentic Life and Career. Suzy is a professor at NYU and was the former editor-in-chief of Harvard Business Review.
