For the last several years my writing has taken a back seat to life—the Pandemic and other life or death matters. As I return to my chair I have updated my Standards document to disclaim and exclude the use of ChatGPT and any AI large language simulators, ever and forever.
Writing is an act of self-absorption and Old Ones Dream is no exception. It is a blog about Community, Family, and Food - and Memory, and flaws of Memory.
The most frequently viewed post for the two years since this page has been updated, and for the twelve year life of Old Ones Dream, has been German Prisoners of War in South Carolina . The most frequently viewed post leading up to winter holidays is in the Food category, The Best I Ever Had: Scalloped Oysters.
The rest of the top most viewed pages according to Google Analytics, are as follows:
- The Near Extinction of the American Bison: Do the Math
- Small Grain Harvest in the 1940s
- Why 34 Foot Tall Climbing Walls and Jump Towers
Most all of my favorite stories are in the Category "Rural Roots".
