Well, I’ve made it through to the spring, just like Annabelle said I would. But don’t let anyone tell you old age is a golden age . There’s precious little that’s golden about it, as far as I can see. … Continue reading →

Stuff Christmas

Posted on December 13, 2017 by annabellefranklinauthor

Naughty Freda and the Dead Seals

Posted on November 15, 2017 by annabellefranklinauthor

A few weeks ago, we had the mother of all storms. Her name was Ophelia, and if she wasn’t quite a hurricane by the time she reached us, she made a pretty good show of it. A true Elemental Queen, … Continue reading →

Chainsaw Massacre!

Posted on October 24, 2017 by annabellefranklinauthor
