Shipslog

This is a Log as we travel to keep us in touch with the real world. We spent a lot of time in the real world now we love the space in the travel world. We live and love full time in our motor home. We tow a Honda CRV to scout around in. We have driven to Alaska and all the lower 48 states. We parked and took a side trip to Hawaii. After traveling in over 20 countries we are most proud of the 1900+ miles we hiked on the Appalachian Trail. Our plans are to travel as long as our health allows.

Smile, Life is Good

That Car:

I once worked at a full service gas station,

never ran into these!

For today:

I had a very serious blog entry concerning Cremation and caskets, but one of my 2^nd cousins put this on:

(They are cute!)

Okay, I am in Florida so I smiled..... not exactly a laughing matter because of this:

Have you ever noticed you can do things day after day, you do them perfectly i.e. Me washing dishes, BUT....someone watches, I just might drop one..... Get this one?

I thought I would just give you men some facts from Sir Golding, or maybe just think about:

Me ‘n Brother Woody up in NY knows stuff, but this one was for Victor, he's OLD and still ain't learned YET!…..

Anyway I hope you smiled today because LIFE is good!

Nite Shipslog

PS: Have you read "Lord of the Flies" by Sir William Golding? I have only read snips and few notes, maybe I should read it.

I'm mostly known as 'MA' said...: I agree with sir William Golding, women do make life better. The old saying if mama ain't happy, no body will be happy is the truth. Best to keep your mama happy and life will be golden. Men should know this but sometimes they forget. Thanks for your cheerful post today !; October 23, 2022 at 10:52 AM
betty said...: I read Lord of the Flies years ago when I was in high school. It might be worth a re-read at this point :) Great quote from Sir William Golding too :)

Mevely317 said...: Funny, I was recently sharing 'getting older' memes with a (non-FB) friend. Humorous, but there's lots of truth there, too. Like someone once observed, you can laugh, or you can cry -- but the first is lots more fun.
... Which reminds me of a favorite saying from Anne Lamotte, 'Laughter is just carbonated holiness.'

Keep smiling!; October 23, 2022 at 2:54 PM
yaya said...: This post did make me smile! The quote is priceless as well as totally true! I saw the movie "Lord of the Flies", I don't think I read the book. However, I feel like I lived it when I was doing Cub Scout meetings years ago! Yes, keep smiling Jack! Hugs from Ohio!; October 23, 2022 at 6:53 PM
Victor S E Moubarak said...: "Lord of the flies?" Is he the one who invented zip fasteners for trousers?

I'll never understand women. For example: yesterday, out of the blue, at about midnight it was, she started shouting and screaming, "Golf ... it's always golf with you ... golf golf golf ..."

I nearly had a heart attack, Jack. I never expected to see her on the golf course so late at night.

God bless.; October 23, 2022 at 7:14 PM
