New Book Release

by Pam Sievers 6 Comments

Most of my blog posts over the past couple years have been about travel. Well, I have just completed another kind of journey - the publication of my second book. During this graduation season, I think back to high school. NO ONE would have ever written in my yearbook that they thought I'd be an author, yet, here I am - two books. Anything can happen. May I present ... The Lone Jackass Ann Cowens never expected to be a widow at age 59. But when her husband of 36 years dies after Continue Reading

From Steel Bands to Bidets – My Salute to 2022

by Pam Sievers 37 Comments

The week between Christmas and New Year’s is always a time of reflection for me. The good, the bad and the funny of the outgoing year as well as looking forward. I started 2022 in Los Angeles where I attended the Rose Parade with a friend who waved at every. single. unit. that marched down or along the route; even the Hare Krishnas who were the warm-up for the actual parade. For the first time, I realized how great it is to surround yourself with people filled with joy.  During the Continue Reading

At”last”ka – Part 2: Home

by Pam Sievers 9 Comments

If it had been a game of hide and seek against the moose, we lost. On the other hand, grizzly bears, caribou, dall sheep, dall porpoises, sea lions, seals, otters, puffins, eagles, and whales – both humpback and orcas, truly made up for the elusive moose. To be honest, we saw two moose cows – one from a distance on our first day and I dismissed it. “We’ll see lots of others,” I said. We saw another, so camouflaged by the brush it was eating that I almost missed it. But otherwise, no Continue Reading

At”last”ka – Part 1: Meet Perley

A pack of Camels peaked out of the pocket of his plaid flannel shirt. His teeth were yellowed from a lifestyle far different from mine, and the only thing longer than his hair was his beard. Perley M was our taxi driver who picked us up at Jakalof Bay, near Seldovia, Alaska. Like many great trips, the journey was far more interesting than the destination. We’d taken a high-speed water taxi ride from Homer, Alaska across Katchemak Bay. The thirty minute ride rearranged my internal organs Continue Reading

Welcome to my website!


Welcome to my website where my goal was to fill the pages with writing that induces gut wrenching laughs. Since I have no spouse, in-laws, children, grandchildren or pets, I have to work a whole lot harder than most humor writers. Hence, instead you’ll find a blog that features travel, contemplative reflections, and of course some humor – you can’t embrace middle age without it. When not writing, I enjoy quilting, learning about other cultures, and living in the Arizona desert.
