All the talk about the US Navy and supply ships reminded me of this. 'Join the Navy and avoid Vietnam'. After 4 years I had done more Vietnam than any of my Marine and Army friends. 😂 This shirt will be 60 years old in a couple of months. 😳

Wow, I think that's spot on. I'm in the same age group and haven't thought of Pinky Lee in ages. 😂

Here we are, a couple of days after the shortest day of the year, and my blueberry bushes have flowers. Wtf? I might as well plant my tomatoes and get a head start. 😂

I've finally given up attempting to photograph these little buggers. This is as good as it gets. 😂 The most beautiful little birds, with a dash of red and blue, never landing. They fly around us at the Reserve with their acrobatics, sometimes pausing in mid air as if gravity didn't apply. Magical.

We brought this character into the world 28 years ago today. 😊 Our youngest boy (of 5), and one who has pushed the envelope at everything he's ever done. Now continuing development in Boston as an EMT. Dylan James Morrison we love and miss you dearly. ❤️

Celebrating the 84th anniversary of the birth of Norman Mayell with my wife and his, Judy July, visiting from SF. Most remembered drumming with Sopwith Camel, on the hit 'Spirit in the Sky', with these two beauties as Kit n Caboodle and the Keester Sisters, and his golfing prowess. Great guy. ❤️
