Wilmark’s home for children was not the ideal place to grow up but Adriana, Isabella, and Philip did just that. Adriana and Isabella shared more than a friendship; they also had the same birthday. The April 16th which marked the girls’ golden birthdays was also the day they said goodbye to the orphanage to make…Read more The Amazing Tales of the Wilmark Five

My Cochella Trip
As a young university student, what is more fun that road tripping across country for a concert? I decided to go with a coworker, her boyfriend and her friend. We took my old beat up car because she didn’t want to put that many miles on her brand new ride. I had a great mechanic…Read more My Cochella Trip
Strange Dream
Photo by Rob Schreckhise on Unsplash Last night I was hanging out with a group of gorillas in the rainforest. I was wondering why one of them looked sad. Their faces are so wonderful and they cannot hide any emotion. I asked him why he was sad, but he just shook his head and…Read more Strange Dream
Random Thought
I wonder what it is like to be a fish. They swim around in their tank but can they see outside of it? Can they see the humans walking around and the Christmas tree still lit up next to them? Can they see out the window into the even bigger world where things are happening…Read more Random Thought
Life is Full of Surprises
When we moved into our house about two years ago, a lovely tree moved with us. It was a hard thing to watch. I followed behind the truck that was carrying it, where it was lovingly wrapped in plastic bags and bungeed into the bed. Unfortunately, all that preparation didn’t stand up to the 60…Read more Life is Full of Surprises

The auctioneer had held up a floor plan of the house before beginning the bidding. She watched him hand the cowboy the deed but didn’t see what happened to the map. She looked around quickly to…Read more Back to the Bookstore
Adriana’s Confession
Adriana told Haily, “I fantasized about being a treasure hunter and honestly that is why I’m here. I was hoping to find Jarvis’s treasure.” Haily laughed. “You actually wanted to be a treasure hunter? That is what you’d say if someone asked you what you want to be when you grow up?” He laughed again.…Read more Adriana’s Confession

Follow the Stranger
Adriana waited calmly as all the gossiping townsfolk made their way off the property. Many stayed and visited for a while longer. The auctioneer was enthralled in a conversation with three ladies and a young man all talking about where they think the treasure might be. Many of the people shook the cowboys hand and…Read more Follow the Stranger
Raining
I love the rain. I love the anticipation in the air before it starts. I love watching as the first drops paint the surfaces a darker color than they were. I love the smell of rain even when it smells like worms but especially when it smells like clean. I love when it is warm…Read more Raining
