My gggrandfather, Troy Cummings [Smith]. Lumbee Indian. Robeson County North Carolina. Pretty nice looking dude and a musician to boot! Don't see many old photos with someone holding an instrument. This was found tucked into the Bible of a distant cousin from that side of the family and because I met another cousin, Angela McCauley, on Facebook, we connected over genealogy (first), and I got this photo. Just incredible treasure!
I make no claims for originality of thought but simply dream and muse aloud. Ideas about life as it is in all its richness, tragedy and mundanity. A simple philosopher with a female perspective, this will be my experimental cook pot to stir together all the things I have read, heard, seen, lived, or things that just caught my attention and that I'm thinking about. I'm a creative; painting and writing are my groove and my therapy. I make money doing both which is cool since I love both. Enjoy!
