Pic of the day;
For today:
It is a little late. But it is nice to smile after
being blocked from the net for hours. As you know, about every day or so, or
every 24 hours, this computer must go down for Updates. Well, it seems that after the updates lately I
have a problem, this one just would not recognize my local Verizon wifi
machine. So I have been off for a good while.
BUT as I said this time I got to smile, I appreciate
all the readers here. But this time I
got a couple surprises. I was able to read comments from a day or so ago that
had not shown up, GOOD STUFF! ~One was an old Blogging friend, Teacher’s Pet, that let me know
she is still around, SWEET.
I was surprised that
some even took time to read ‘The Cremation of Sam McGee.” Seeing those signs as
I drove sure made me think. Who would
have thought as I read that poem in 1951/52 in a small mountain classroom in
Valdese, NC that I would one day be driving in Canada’s Great Yukon and actually
see Lake Lebarge. About 75 years later.
Oh yes, and I was corrected by a young man I am so
proud of. Grandson Josh had finished a 26.2 mile marathon. I have ran a lot,
and marched a bunch, but I have never even marched 26 miles without a 1/2 hour break, much less ran it.
We have traveled and Josh and wife Megan have
traveled. He holds it over my head that they have made my dream trip to Ireland,
and we haven’t made it yet. LOL
Also proud that he reads the blog, Thanks Josh. However he did correct his Grandpa. In a Text, “Hey Grandpa that is not a picture of Lake Louise, that is Lake Moraine, but it is close to Louise however. LOL To top it off he sends me a picture of Megan and himself at both lakes. ;-). They are a lovely couple and great parents., one day I will show you those pictures, I just cannot get them off my phone. LOL
Now I am gonna try to get those pictures here. Josh
could do it in a flash, his grandpa has yet to conquer this later technology
(Later than 1962 LOL), but Imma try. LOL
This was an update LOL I hope it is the right pic.

What an exquisite locale! At this season in our lives travel is but a pipe dream, so I applaud anyone who makes a point of doing so. (And yes, that includes you and Sherry.)
Wow, is it just me or is Joshua the spitting image of JJ?
Wishing y'all a blessed day!
Wow, someone who can out travel you, I didn't think it possible. glad you could smile today, I always smile when I see a post from you! the updates are always going to come and we only hope they don't mess us up. I'm with you on new technogy.
Hey, I'm famous! My picture is on the ShipsLog! Love you, Grandpa :-) I always enjoy reading your posts on here! We still have a ways to go before we have caught up with you and Grandma in the travel department, but we'll keep working on it :-P
I think it is so nice that your grandson reads your blog. :)
Dealing with technology sure can be frustrating at times.
I love your blog - but and I am sure you know - your grandson is absolutely adorable, and I am so happy he is following you and writing on your blog.
