Secret Bay, Dominica

December 24, 2016 by Dave2 Comments

A stay here is for the discerning traveler who highly values an intimate setting (4 acres total) combined with appealing natural surroundings, the utmost privacy and a property that maintains a beautiful silence. This clifftop location features merely eight villas and bungalows. The villas are more spacious then the bungalows; each villa comes with its own plunge pool. But all come with excellent views. Appropriately there is a secret beach at … [Read more...]

The Doll Lady of Wisconsin

November 18, 2016 by Sharon Nadja Zajdman3 Comments

On the first anniversary of my mother’s passing, a letter was forwarded to me from the Holocaust Center. My mother had been prominent in Holocaust Education.

Nine Reasons to Visit the Azores Now

September 7, 2016 by Jaime Scilingo15 Comments

Name the group of nine European islands merely four-and-a-half hours from Boston Logan Airport. Stumped? You are not alone.  Most of America has never heard of the Azores, couldn't locate them on a map, and wouldn't know what part of Europe claims them as countrymen.  For the few who do know of the Atlantic eden 900 miles west of Portugal, this Zion is a cherished gift and a dichotomous burden.  On one hand, the beauty and virginal nature of the … [Read more...]

Living in the Age of Airplanes: A Film by Brian J. Terwilliger

August 21, 2016 by DaveLeave a Comment

As Bill Gates said, “The airplane became the first World Wide Web, bringing people, languages, ideas, and values together,” and that’s exactly what this film proves.

Value sometimes in getting … [Read more...]
