I came across this while doing my Microsoft Awards tasks. This is a great story and it includes a virtual tour of this art gallery. Check it out at this link:

https://unlocked.microsoft.com/zucot-gallery/?ocid=cmmdtaqfvu8&FORM=ANNRW1

The virtual tour is toward the middle of the article. It’s really cool. You click dots on the floor to navigate to the artwork and if you click on the paintings, you can see the artist and the description of the work. Very cool!

Here’s a direct link to the gallery’s website: https://www.zucotgallery.com/

I hope you have a great time exploring this place. If you are ever in Atlanta, GA, check this place out. It looks really cool!

Happy Tuesday!

Until next time…

If you have some time and are looking for some interesting entertainment, here’s a link to some interesting facts about the Presidents in our history. I read all of them and some of them are outright funny: https://www.factretriever.com/us-presidents-facts

Have a great Monday!

Daily Ramblings – Bonus Content – Thanksgiving Countdown

Ooh! Pumpkin pie, turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and all the rest await! It’s going to be a great Thanksgiving this year, like every year. I’ll be making the final grocery run tomorrow and I always end up getting more than we need.

I’m not much of a football fan, so I don’t watch the games, nor do I watch the parades. I used to when I was a kid, but now, I just enjoy hanging out and doing whatever. I’ll be doing a little gaming, reading, hanging out with the family, and eating a truckload of food, on and off all day long.

I decided today would be my last posting for the year, other than my holiday postings. I was going to continue all the way to the end of the month, but decided it was time to just shut things down for the rest of 2022. It’s been a great year, folks.

I’ve made some great friends here, that I would not have met anywhere else. So here’s a shameless plug for their blogs, in case you are interested:

https://kmallan.com/ – K.M. Allan is an Australian YA author. Her Blackbirch series is terrific. If you’re thinking of writing a book, she provides all kinds of tips, tricks, and real-world experience writing and publishing a book. She mailed me a copy of her first book, which was not cheap, and I so appreciate her.


https://tierneycreates.com/ – Enjoy crafting? Check out this blog for anything related to quilting, travel to cool places, and even some postings from one of her creations. Her husband is also quite the craftsman.


https://joannaoftheforest.wordpress.com/ – If you want some great pictures of the outdoors and enjoy reading articles that are happy and interesting, you’ll want to check out here postings.

I consider all three of these bloggers friends, because they always respond to my blog postings and we have had some interesting interactions.

Well, folks. I hope all of you have a terrific holiday season and get some time with friends, family, and your favorite hobbies. I’ll be doing what I love–gaming, reading, and writing. I’ll also be making some decisions about some daily postings that I’ve done this year, that I may change up, just to keep things fresh and help me explore new areas that I have not dove into before.

Happy Holidays, folks.

See you in 2023!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Bonus Content – Announcement

All, I’ve decided to alter my postings on Thursday. I’ve been posting what I’m reading, what I’m learning, and what I’m watching, but frankly it bores me to tears. I imagine it bores many of you too, so I’m going to leave Thursday a free writing day, where I write about whatever comes to mind. I’m going to call Thursday my “Free Writing Day”.

I hope all of you like what I come up with and have a great weekend!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Bonus Content – It’s My Birthday!

APEX, Birthday, CODM, Crypto, Diamond Camo, M16, Senior Gamers, Zombies

All, It’s my birthday today. I’m 59 years old.

To celebrate, I’ll be gaming all day long. It’ll be a great day. The family is taking me out to dinner tonight. I’ll be playing APEX and CODM. I’m working on my final character Crypto to get his tier 3 perks. In CODM, I’m working on getting diamond camo for the M16 and working through the battle pass for both primary game play and Zombies, which they just brought back for Halloween month.

Hopefully my age will motivate other senior gamers to get into the mix. You’re never too old to play some great games and there are so many. Have a great gaming Saturday, folks!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Bonus Content – 9/11

9/11, Ceremonies, Fear, Loss, Pearl Harbor, rememberance, Twin Towers

I wanted to take a few moments to remember 9/11. I was at the gym, when the planes hit the Twin Towers in New York. While I was working out, I always take a peek at the many televisions in the gym. I didn’t realize this was a news report. I thought it was an action movie, coming to theaters. Boy was I wrong.

When I got home, my voicemail was beeping. When I checked it, the message was from the Company Commander of my recruiting company. The message: Get in to work. This is not a drill.

I did not listen to the rest. I got dressed, told my wife what was going on, and headed in, What a crazy day. I could not believe it. I will always remember that day and where I was when it happened.

I have not looked at the news yet, but there will be ceremonies across the nation commemorating the day, which has been compared to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Have a great Sunday, folks.

Until next time…

My brother and his gal took off yesterday afternoon from the airport. What a great time we had while he was here. They hung out with my sister for a few days, went to the beach, went out to some of our favorite haunts here (Ted’s Coney Island, Raven Coffee House, Freighters). They also got to watch some shows. They are huge fans of Locke and Key on Netflix. I have not watched it yet, but have it tagged on my watch list.

Tomorrow I’ll get back to my normal writing schedule. It was a nice week off!

Until next time…

Brother, family, Fun, Phoenix, Relatives, Time off, vacation, Visit

All, I forgot to mention I’ll be off from blogging for about a week. My brother is flying in today from Phoenix and he’ll be here for about a week. I want to maximize my time with him while he’s here so I’m suspending many of my daily routines to do just that.

Have a great weekend. Have a great week.

I’ll see you soon!

Until next time…

All, in the United States, today is Memorial Day. It is a day we honor those that have given their lives in the service of our country. I’ve attached a Wikipedia link if you’d like to learn a little about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_Day

I also found the above video for you. This captures what this day is all about.

Until next time…
