The Quick Reference Code For This Blog.

I used the QR Generator mentioned in our twitter account to create this Quick Reference (QR) code.  It links from here to Belltowernews.com.

Now that I have it, how do I use it?  I am thinking of making this my default user photo when signing up for the million or so sites that allow an avatar.

It should probably go somewhere on Belltowernews.com as well.  Let me think about it.

Sitting in a railway station...

I knew Malika vicariously in NYC in 1970.  I've known her personally, meeting again in San Francisco, since the early 80's. 

Now I am sitting in Union Station near the State Capitol in Providence waiting for her train to arrive from Virginia.

We don't have much time.  She and her daughter are going south from here to be with family while I will be going north to be with mine.

But,  we'll always have the Cheesecake Factory a block away from the train station.

Just a short comment in support of the people of Vermont.  We lived in the town of Charlotte in 1993-94.  The biggest weather burden was the blizzards.  Our house overlooked Lake Champlain.  I can honestly say, hurricanes were the last thing on our mind.

They happened off the ocean.  Vermont is inland with no thoughts of the ocean.  It's neighbor, New Hampshire, has Portsmouth, a good harbor, but the only real harbor we ever saw in Vermont was at the end of Ferry Road.

This was a left hook from nature that no one could expect.  My sympathies to all who lost their loved ones, their livelihoods and their beloved covered bridges.
