About once a year I go through files and try to purge at least 25% of the "junk" I saved thinking it might be important.  It makes for a fun day on a day when I have nothing much else to do.  I always find a note that reminds me of a project that I never did and I resolve to revive it this year. ...

Here's to SWINGING IN THE RAIN!    Never stay inside just because it's raining.  This has been one of the worst winters in decades here at the coast of North Carolina.  A moderate, sunny day has been rare and treasured.  But little boys need to get outside.  I know I sound like a Grandmother, but...
