I have a blog—Sandra Heska King. I started writing there in July 2009. I haven’t written there since June 2020, and that was just a teaser for a Pandemic Journal piece that appeared at Tweetspeak Poetry. For a lot of reasons not writing has become my norm since then. Well, not writing for public consumption has become my norm. Partly because a lot of my energy has been consumed by a major and slow-moving home renovation, having no place to call my own, books and papers scattered to the four winds of house and garage, and other reasons and excuses.
Hi Sandra! I so loved reading this! In fact, I read it twice! To my husband as well.. who is still working. He loved it and is inspired to explore together as we age. We are in our early 60's and he has been an extremely hard working industrial electrician for 40 years. I look at his hands and marvel at how he continues to play music and road cycle. I love seeing the humor and hope of adventure in your words and images. Beautiful! The alligators though 😮. You are brave!!! Your harps and their names!! ❤️ My body, knees the same, I say keep going! God is never done with us! 🙌🏻
I began a Substack in heavy grieving, writing for life as I say, one year ago 6/1. It was a God push, and although not a writer, yet an accomplished photographer, it has helped me heal.
You are awesome!!!! And I’m so jealous you are going back to Israel. I’m turning 73 this year - this week actually, and though I feel much younger than 73 in my head, my body isn’t as cooperative.
I’ve entertained moving over to substack, as well. I stopped blogging when life got (more) complicated for us. Just don’t know where to start.

I’m so excited about this! Welcome to the Substack. We are newbies together! 💗
I love this, Sandra, and I love that you are writing again! 💗💗💫
Love this idea, Sandra :)
And your photos of the Southwest. Amazing!!! :)
Oh wow, Deborah. Thanks for popping in and sharing a bit of your story. We will keep on going together. What does your husband play?
