A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.

Ferry boat between Solvorn and Ornes across the Lustrafjord i Sogn og Fjordane.




I'm starting a new blog because
BOOK

Online journal capturing the moment and the memory of moments. A meadow meditation.
#982524 by Kåre Enga in Montana
had over 1,200 entries and that was getting close to full. I don't want to trim it by deletion. I did that once, much to my dismay. Will be used more for poetry.

BOOK
Hoarfrosts from Hell  (GC)
Anything I'm not happy about or that I don't want in my main blog!
#997339 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is still hidden from the public and will remain so. It's more personal and full of angst. Was used for 30DBC for May 2020 and now used for Blogville.

BOOK
Enga mellom fjella  (13+)
Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.
#1317094 by Kåre Enga in Montana

I'll be linking to

is for my opinions. *Laugh*

BOOK
Nurture your Nature  (13+)
Look around. Let Nature nurture your Soul. I record images I sense and share them here.

was set up for nature observations and musings.

 
BOOK
Watt's Gnus  (18+)
On topics and today's gnus. Definitely opinionated. Set to 18+ for a reason.
#1439092 by Kåre Enga in Montana
come out of a need to share interesting stuff I come across. When I was young I did a small newsletter named as such. (or was it column in the newsletter? Been 30 years... I think.)

 
FOLDER
Flash Fiction  (GC)
Short 300 word, more or less, "stories" .
#2190336 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is where I put my flash fictions. Maybe someday I'll figure it out and have enough good ones to publish. Ratings vary and some are hidden from view.

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.
STATIC
Space Cadet - the never ending journal  (18+)
Journeys of an Alien Space crew.
#2226611 by Kåre Enga in Montana


I needed to start a folder for contests as there are so many deadlines and details to remember.

Thruple? 3 traveling...

*Cappucine: ""& it's not going to rain." *Laugh* You are a dreamer! A funny one. "& turn blue, then build a fire, & steam." Thanks for the images. Is the year 2000? I could've done this 20 years ago. I wouldn't have (because I was an uptight idiot, but I could've and should've). This could be an outline of a larger work "Avoiding Port Arthur" (as in avoiding blood and pain)." re "around the apple isle

*Nannamom: "A threesome teeter-totter-ing on heels? Why do I get this flashing image of the Brit-com Ab-Fab? *Rolling* "we felt calories could not possibly catch us." ... O Ye Deluded Nancy Squared Plus One. You lie about heading straight home from Texas ... just saying. You actually were sighted in Puebla eating 'pollo en mole poblano'. We have the pics to prove it. And you couldn't control yourself in Coyoacan after visiting Frida Kahlo's Blue House. Again, the pics taken at the market of you wallowing in chocolate sauce... Oh, I could go on-and-on... *Smirk*" re "Our Sweet(s) Tour

*Kathie: "Three guides. Totally awesome. My trip to England '11 was the best vacation I ever had because WDC friends took me around the places they knew. They weren't just 'places'. Ruins of this and that, a festival, longboats, train museum, a shop where they made ropes, a castle where Linda's mother had once worked in the guest shop, eccles cakes and yorkshire pudding, home-made scones from scratch, roasted parsnips, mushy peas. Best trip ever. This shouldn't be a dream. You-three should plan dates for Spring (start in the South) or Summer." re "30 day Blogging-Nov 15, 2021

Robert: {c:}"I tend to travel alone; but in 1975 three of us went from Kansas to Key West. Awesome trip. We didn't take much. Now? Passport... because it's my i.d. Camera and chargers... because I don't want to waste time shopping. Map. I usually travel with one week of underwear. However, if I were to be a flash-packer three would do. A phone or my chromebook would be wise. Pen. Notepad. Debit card, money. I'd just go down my list and simplify. Clothes can be worn, washed or bought. Where would I stuff my friends? Ah... maybe I'll just leave them behind. Last solar eclipse I was here. I was in Vienna for an awesome lunar eclipse with Mars." re "Dark Side of the Moon

Sonali : {c:}"I immediately thought of Japan. *Hearto* The Shikoku pilgrimage route (or Shikoku Henro) is one of the few circular-shaped pilgrimages in the world. It includes 88 “official” temples and numerous other sacred sites where the Buddhist priest Kūkai (Kōbō Daishi) is believed to have trained or have spent time during the 9th Century. It takes a month or two to walk so better pack for the sore feet and weather." re "Nature and Worship and Hand-made stuff - #30DBC

Ray: {c:}"Oh? Do tell us about that wild weekend! *Laugh* And now you owe us a story, "Tobacco Leaves"." re "Road Trip

Sox: {c:}"A headache is close; a hangover is close; hemorrhoids are close. How close did you say all-y'all were? *Rolling*"." re "November 15, 2021

Marvilla : {c:}"I guess most of us need our toys. I need to buy a cellphone. My chromebook must go with me. Pen and notebook? Yep." re "Pretend Roadtrip

Viv: {c:}"Traveling with a dog is doable, even by train, plane, bus and boat. *HeartO* " re "TRIPPING WITH BEST FRIENDS

Sue: {c:}"I went to non-famous historic places. One of my favorites was Lyme Hall. I must say that a slower trip is advisable. Covid really put me on hold. It's not going to be easy to get going again and I may have to stay in pricier lodgings." re "Action replay

Tina: {c:}"I butterflied a boneless porkchop, glazed it with peanut sauce, chopped cherries and cashews and then stuffed with pork-stuffing and baked it. All gone now! Should've taken a picture. As long as it all fits into one piece of luggage you haven't over-packed. (No, the prompt didn't say only three items *Bigsmile*.) The packing means prioritizing. One needs a camera to take photos; no one needs 10 different outfits (trust me on this)." re "Invalid Entry

QP: {c:}"We had a good book festival in our town for years... until they killed it. I only went to a writer's conference in Listowel, Ireland, May of 2015. You may want to put that on your bucket list. If you've been twice what did you-three do?" re "Writing Road Trip

?LeJen: {c:}"You may as well go the whole way... stop in Quebec City, go through New Brunswick, visit Anne of Green Gables in P.E.I. (Prince Edward Island) and end in Halifax. Or... visit Cape Breton (very Irish), St. Pierre & Miquelon (which is France), NewFoundLand (especially if either of you loves orchids). It would be quite a journey-of-a-lifetime, but well worth it." re "Journey Across Canada - 30DBC 11/15/21

Petra: {c:}"Well now that you have an idea, it's just a matter of filling in the details. Bus and train should suffice. There's lots to see along the way. Set aside two months (late summer into autumn September-October the way you have it set up or spring April-May if you do it in reverse) flights to Porto or Lisbon to/from Amsterdam are easy and reasonably cheap. However, if you are caravaning with your pup then I don't know... crossing into the UK may be an issue. I can imagine a circle trip coming back through Spain (the coast all the way to Barcelona), Southern France (Avignon/Arles, Nice/Monaco), Italy (Genoa, Turin, Milan), Switzerland, and then Luxembourg and/or Germany. The advantage of your own transportation would be the option to camp and the ability to take a bit more. And most everything you need can be bought along the way." re "Roadtrip

Jenn: {c:}"Books... I know when I'm flying back to Missoula because people are reading books. I don't take extra books because international flights don't allow much weight. Plus I read on my computer. Yeah, a rock in the ocean. Don't bother visiting the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen for that same reason. She sits on a rock." re "Invalid Entry

Mike: {c:}"I would get carsick as a child. My parents gave me m&ms. Did the chocolate help? I thought so. *Bigsmile* When I buy Reese's pieces I go for the biggest bag I can find. Target carries them. " re "An all enCOMPASSing trip [30 DBC entry]

Diane: {c:}"BACKROADS ONLY, NO FREEWAYS! *applaud* I remember spending a night in Munday, Texas. The room was Americana to the hilt. I was actually charmed by it. " re "Invalid Entry
