What’s Up in the Neighborhood, May 8, 2021

Tomorrow is Mother’s Day, and as the great baseball voice Ralph Kiner said, “Happy birthday to all you mothers out there.” Ha.

Welcome to the Saturday recap, where I showcase this week’s blog posts and photos from my fellow bloggers and writers and photographers. This week’s interview features writer and poet J. Eric Smith, whose blog writings go back nearly to the beginning of the Internet
