I've been doing this DelSo thing for close to 5 years and have been called a couple of things. I think interesting is my favorite.

Was dubbing my little neighborhood … Continue reading The pretension of DelSo

Reflections of Disney
Well, we survived our theme park adventures relatively unscathed. Quinn has a bit of a cold he picked up as a souvenir, along with the small tower of maps, used tickets and a Disney-esque handbook and completed passport.

We had fun even though the unrelenting sun began to make me feel like I was … Continue reading Haunted Disney

There was a summer a long time ago, in the mythical (to some) town where I grew up, when it seemed that the Rolling Stones' album "Some Girls" was in constant airplay. It didn't seem possible that so many … Continue reading Some Girls
