The Final Drop
A single drop made its way over the cage pulled by the strong force of the summer sun. Its greatest desire is to be set free from its crunchy and delicious cage. That single drop is naïve to think there is anything waiting for it on the other side of the waffled exterior. But, nonetheless, the bewitching sun is too powerful in its ways. It calls for the single drop of frozen delectable to push just a little further, melt just a little faster. The drop knows nothing of its future if it falls. A future in which it will become just a meaningless speck on the sidewalk soon to be trampled by running feet. No one will pay any mind to the speck on the sidewalk; whose life expectancy has been shortened to practically nothing. All in good time, the sun will call its name, and the drop will have no choice but to respond, melting away until it has become one with the energy around it. The drop, responding to the call as fast as possible, does not see destiny lurking . In a moment's notice, the drop is scooped up; not by the sun, but by a wet, pink tongue desperately trying to prevent wasting a single drop of sweet cream. And just like that, the drop has yet to drip. It becomes as Alice tumbling down a dark tunnel towards Wonderland without knowledge of where lies the final destination. But fear not little sun. You may have lost one drop; however, the brothers are just as eager to respond to your halloo.

A Trip to Ireland’s Most Haunted Castle
Leap Castle is said to be the most haunted castle in Ireland. It has a long history of conflict and a number of reports from people who claim they had paranormal encounters while visiting there. When I visited several years ago, I went as part of a paranormal research group. I made a point of not looking up the particulars of the castle’s history because I wanted to see if what I saw and heard matched up with what has been previously reported by others without any predispositions.

Michigan Wine
While not everyone might not know it, Michigan is well known for it's own collection of wineries and vineyards. Located both in the North West of the Lower Peninsula centered around Traverse City and down South West in the Benton Harbor/St. Joseph area some of these have been around as long as the 1800's. Now that number as grown, and in 2018 there were 148 wineries operating in Michigan.

Meditate in the Nude
Since the plague seeped its blighted fingers into our society life’s been harder for most. Long, underpaid, unappreciated work hours compounded on stress. The Mental illness epidemic worsened, and the world is generally falling apart. Still, if we are to persevere we must take time to smell the proverbial flowers. Lest we be ground to dust by the grindstone.

Major Art Festivals in Australia
Australia, with its abundant and unique experiences, is an amazing country that attracts many tourists to the city every year. The country’s immigrant population is greater than its natives, greatly justifying its vibrant multiculturalism. This amalgamation of cultures has given birth to many festivals and cultural exchanges too. The art scene in Australia is a priceless area to dive into. Here are some interesting art festivals of Australia.

Secret Shopper Reviews: K&B Home Etc and Cafe is Milton's #1 Boutique, Comic Shop, Record Store & Place to Grab a Sandwich or Coffee
One of my favorite type of assignments I get here for Emerald Coast's Best is our Secret Shopper Reviews. It's the ultimate test for a business, not knowing there is anybody there secretly judging them. Although, in the age of internet reviews, I guess you could argue that everybody has the potential to be doing that. When I was told to check out K&B Home Etc and Cafe recently, I wasn't sure what to think. They are a newer business and I don't get the pleasure of traveling to Milton often so I hadn't heard of them before. After a bit of asking around, and as you can see below, I got some incredibly different answers.

The Holiday Inn, Maidenhead, England
Due to various restrictions here in the UK because of COVID 19, “hoomins” as my great artistic friend Pegs calls members of the servant species, are unable to travel as freely as they used to. So, it has befallen to Mitzi and I to visit various hotels and prepare reviews of our visits for when you hoomins or, ”servants” as I refer to you can resume regular travel.
