Remembering
Remembering I’ve finished my book, Along the Back Roads of Yesterday. It will be in the hands of the printer by week’s end. Now that it has been put to bed, I am starting another one. This morning I’ve been sitting in front of this monitor listing notes for the new book. I’ve been remembering. [...]
A day with Jon and Tanya
Thursday I drove up to Penrose, Colorado to help Jon and Tanya start their donkeys driving. I see that Tany has already commented about my trip. There are a number of things she left out but I’ll not go into details as I don’t want to detract from her excellent purple prose. All kidding aside. It [...]
A boy, an’ his mule, an’ a book…
…. The debut of Mr. Oris George’s FIRST PUBLICATION. Well, okay, NOT his very first, but the first time his book has been available and it’s SO newly published that HE doesn’t even know yet (until he gets this email). In fact, it’s so new, that I forgot to tell everyone that this ebook is [...]
Ol’ Blue and Charlie
A Short Story by Oris George “Oris, for once in your life, will you sit down to eat your breakfast? For heaven’s sake, chew your food and drink your milk.” Mom was winding up for a nagging speech. (I couldn’t wait to get out of the house before she got started.) “Furthermore, you have no [...]

Coyote Moments – Oris is Killing Birds Again
Got an email announcing to the world that Oris hates birds, says I’m having a nightmare if I hear them squawking. Says the sun is shining brightly (he used an -ly word – he’s having a mind glitch) at his house this morning. If the coyotes are out, they’d best be checking on old Oris, [...]
Back Road Awakenings
Do you dance? Mr. Meadow Lark danced across my balcony this morning, disrupting my day and agitating the natives. After he’d waltzed his way through traffic to get here… He informed me that Oris had welcomed the coyotes into the fold and reminded me he’s not too happy about it. I dare say, he wasn’t [...]
Back Roads – Nostalgia for Today’s World
When Oris George first contacted me (Charger) about creating a website for his donkeys and mules, I was a bit taken back. I do high-tech stuff and this guy wants me to work with donkey poop and mule dung? I’m better than that, but then I visited with him a bit and we talked about [...]
