ONE OF THOSE DAYS

Ever have one of those days when you just want to sail away? Not far - just away? It's not that i don't like where I am, it's just that I want to experience the freedom and the solitude that sailing in the Puget Sound, and anchoring in it's many coves can bring.

Just Thinking

I can't believe that at 16 year old girl is sailing around the world - by herself - non stop - never getting off her boat - no one helping her - parents letting her (though if one of my kids was to do that, I suppose I would be excited for them). Well she is. Abby Sunderland. What the heck, why not? Her brother did it last year at the age of 17 years. They are the first 2 of 7 kids.

What are the other 5 kids going to look forward to. What if the other kids get seasick, or are afraid of the dark, the ocean, being alone? Will everyone think of them as wimps? I'm just thinking ...

A grandfather's thought...

I'm told that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

BEHOLD!

San Diego is what it is - a beautiful place (even on a cloudy day).

25th World Wide Sketchcrawl

It was a beautiful morning in Old Town San Diego, CA.

70 degrees and sunny.

I often wonder what it would have been like in the 1800's. I wonder if I would still be a teacher - I mean with the one room school house and all.
