What’s Up in the Neighborhood, December 28 2019

The last “Neighborhood” blog post of 2019.  Heck, it’s the last one of the decade.  So next week’s “Neighborhood” post will be the first of 2020 … and it’ll be the first of the new Roaring 20’s.  So, with 2020, 24 hours and so to go, I wanna be … I dunno, satiated?

Okay, end of the lame jokes.  For today, anyway.  Here’s this week’s blog recaps of the bloggers and writers and photographers on my personal blogroll.  Hope you enjoy.
