Sooooo….. we were walkin’ in the hood and came upon this giant agave.

So nice, so nice. I photographed it twice.

And of course, I had to get crazy with the 3rd shot.
Now, Dearest Friends and Enablers…
I am off to package up 3 eBay auctions that sold — some of hubby’s model railroad stuff.
Yay, my auctions sold! My auctions sold!!
Then… I have photos to take of 6 more railroad things and get those listed.
Whooohooooooo, Jannie can now hire her bassist and drummer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, I’m the luckiest person I know!!
Who’s the luckiest person YOU know? And why?

You will have friends who carry you.
And times when you will carry them.
You will have friends who drift away,
allowing new friends to draw closer.
You will have friends long after
I am but wildflowers in the woods.

Cherish them. But most of all,
cherish you. And the love ever
reigning over and under and
in and on everything, like the
oceans of your father’s eyes and
the music in my heart for him.

My dVerse Open Link Tuesday thoughts.

And thinking I’ll add a 4th photo to this post, sometime in the next coupla days!
A picture you’ve never seen before of Kelly’s ocean-eyed dad.
So, come back, if you wish!

The year I was born, 1964,
our friend “Uncle” Jimbo, then 19,
served his first of 4 Vietnam tours.
Jimbo, who videotaped Kelly’s birth.
Jimbo, who honored her this morning
by accepting her invitation to appear with
other Veterans in her school ceremony.
Jimbo, quick to laugh, love and lend a hand.
Jimbo, gift of a human and friend.


I reckon that was 55 words (non-fiction today) for The G-Man.
I’ll explain the Red Hatter thing sooner than later.

The hand on Jimbo’s shoulder in 2001 belonged to his sometimes-nice-but-more-often-crazy ex.
Luckily, he soon met and married a VERY nice lady, Terri. Kelly was a flower girl at their wedding, 2005.
Here we all were at Lake Buchanan…

Jimbo and Terri are AWESOME!!

Last week I mailed Dad that card and 24 photos.
Snagged the one of Niece Alyssa (bottom middle) off my sis’ FB page.

Dad, whom I get my poetic leanings from, will be 75 on Sunday the 30th.
But he’s younger than most 60-year-olds!
Lately he’s been in his woods cutting logs for NEXT winter. Yes – ‘12 –’13.

Regrettably, Rosie wasn’t in the 2009 pic because she was busy chasing her 2-year-old son around.
I do have video of us all together on that day, tho. And can make stills from it!
And…
since my Hallmark-eat-your-heart-out poem for Dad is about 55 words…

let’s call this a 55 for the G-Man.
Post a fiction in 55 words, let G-Man know and he’ll comment.
whoooooohooooooooooo.
