Come on in, pull up a chair!

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.

Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.

Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.

This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.

A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.

Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Comment by Patricia on September 3, 2012 at 10:58pm: My husband made the ''trees'' out of the stalks left from lilacs after the season.

Comment by Steph S. on September 3, 2012 at 10:50pm: That was a cool train video - very creative idea to buy a camera for the train.

Comment by Patricia on September 3, 2012 at 10:42pm: You'll have to stop in & see us Sk8ey....The Rocky Mountaineer goes right through my city.....we did that tour last year....was great!

Comment by sk8eycat on September 3, 2012 at 10:39pm: Patricia: That's an amazing train layout! I watched it and watched it, and turned green with envy. I've wanted a model train since I was about 8 years old...a GOOD model, not a "toy" Lionel train. Never got one, but 2 weeks after I graduated from high school I started my 3-year career with an ice show. We almost always travelled by train, and I loved it!

My dream trip is to go from Los Angeles to Seattle on the Coast Starlight, get to Vancouver, BC by bus or ferry, and then take a train to Winnipeg, switch to another train and go on to Churchill. I wanna see polar bears and the Aurora, and I don't really care whether I come home or not. (Maybe go back to Winnipeg, and then as far east as I can go. I'd like to see the Bay of Fundy...)

Tee-hee!

Going to check out your You Tube page.

More pics for my collection.

Comment by Patricia on September 3, 2012 at 6:38pm: My husband has HO model trains as his retirement hobby. I gave him a tiny video camera which he attached to the train so it gives a different view of things. The wallpaper is of a pretty realistic looking village, & my son is in the bedroom doorway watching. He's taken over the third bedroom for his layout as we had the basement suite rented out until last year. I told him he's NOT expanding into any more rooms....hahahaha.....
