Well, here I go with another one of my famous emails.  I got this one the other day, and I couldn't help but think of my ex wife and all the fond memories we had together. Now that we've been divorced for a number of years, we have become friends again and actually enjoy chatting from time to ti...

My friend Julie Kippen tagged me with a meme. Since this is my second bookworm meme, it's gonna be tough to tag 5 more people. For those of you who have been tagged, I apologize. Scot's incredibly weakened legs were not of much use, so he went back to dragging himself in Amanda's direction while...

My good friend (hmmm)  Hal Place tagged me with a bookworm meme. I've never heard of this so imagine my surprise.  The stated six (6) rules for this endeavor are: 1. Grab the nearest book. 2. Open the book to page 56. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the text of the next two to five sentences....

Angel Trumpet One of the most beautiful and intriguing flowers IMO is the Angel's Trumpet. I took these photos at a botanical garden we visited while in Tenerife, Canary Islands. These flowers were huge and I couldn't resist  getting these shots.   The following shot I had to take several shots ...

I'm stunned and a little disgusted too.  I received a call from my sellers to say they went to check on their condo and found that someone had used the bathroom (number 2 - we all know what that is right?)in their "vacant condo" and didn't flush.   I was so embarrassed.  I normally don't allow to...

The submarine race! I received this from a friend and I was just amazed. I had never seen a submarine race before and I was excited to see how it was done.   It was a 4 lap race. Lap 1   Lap 2 Lap 3 Final Lap What the heck were you expecting to see?   As always, I added a few of my own touches t...

I received this from a friend who was divorced several years ago.  I honestly thought it was a serious story. Being divorced myself, i wondered if i could somehow relate it to my ex-wife. I sure hope she's not reading this.  LOL. Flying lessons: My ex-wife started taking flying lessons about the...

I love living in my little 55+ community of Sun City Center.  We have lots of fun here, and although most may think we've been put out to pasture, that is far from the truth.  We are very active, and more than anything else, we love life.  I get a lot of emails from my "friends" and "neighbors" ...

Michelle Teeter I received this email from a friendly Mortgage Broker in our area.  She sends me updates on the industry and keeps me informed of what's going on in the market, with weekly emails.  A couple I have thought I would pass on, but never did.  That old fear of plagarism.  Since she ha...

LIving in Florida, we get a lot of good sunsets.  You don't always have to be on the beach to capture a good shot. Tonight I was sitting in my family room and I noticed that the sun was setting and there ware some interesting things happening as well.  I grabbed my camera and for the next half h...
