Estacionamiento*

I was the Penultimate Passenger on this Ferry . . .

and the Last Driver leaving this Parking Lot!

Penultimate is my favorite English word, because of its meaning, and it's fun to use! 

*Estacionamiento is my favorite word in Spanish, because it looks like such a fancy word, and it's fun to say!

"Mame:

We need a little Christmas 

Right this very minute!

Patrick: But, Auntie Mame, it's one week past Thanksgiving Day now!"

This is my second sighting of Santa Clause . . . already . . . in person!

Could I Be a Close Friend to Pluto?

He does 

seem taller

than me . . . 

The Airstream Song

I suppose I’m a little out of touch from Country Music. 
Lately I've been hearing a lot about Miranda Lambert.  
She made this song! Nice!

It’s got a good beat for my endurance walking . . . ya know for the Crazy Horse trek! www.crazyhorsememorial.org

What Time Is It?

Arizona is in the Mountain Standard Time Zone (MST), and Hawaii is in the Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time Zone (HAST). 
                                       
These two states do not observe daylight-saving time. 
I suppose they have extra Daylight in storage.

In 2007, DST was changed from April to March, and from October to November. I have one old alarm clock that didn't get the memo . . . it was preprogramed, and reminds me of this twice a year!

Breakfast . . .

 Made with a new cooking gadget. 
         Yum!

Happy Halloween!

 Boo to you . . .             

  and you 

     and you 

         and you !!!

Bubbles . . .

love 

BUBBLES!

A Gap Year (or two)

     When I retire from my real job ...  I’m going to work at the Happiest Place on Earth!
www.fun at the park!

       Look at the Joy that is bursting out of these people!! 

On my first visit (1985!) to Walt Disney World, from the cornor of my eye, I saw this Magical job! 

Oh to be a Walking Information Booth & tidy up at the same time!                  

What could be better than that! 

Someday My Prince Will Come . . .

 . . . to Help me with the driving, campsite hookups, flat tires . . . and many other chores! The more research I do, the more I learn that My Airstream Dream is a journey not meant for one.  

                        So I suppose I’ll need a Beau!   

But for now, it seems that Prince Charming is Taken! Or maybe not!! 

Dogs and Leashes.

A beautiful thing. Especially for walkers!

                                                        
                                            This is happy Bella-rina 

 And here is distracted Kookie

 

                                                                                                

 Feisty Buster is ready to pounce!

Now, about that other hazard . . .

These feet have been friends for a Very Long Time!

A Gentle Reminder for Independence Day

The Declaration of Independence July 4 1776, by John Trumbull

Dear Hurricane X,

These kind of things never happen when you're prepared . . . right?

Four AA battery operated TV!                 

 You can’t recharge if you have no electric.

Four D battery operated fan!

No electric  . . . no A/C.

Four D battery operated Lantern! 

Can’t find the Kitties in the dark.

And many cans of easy food. 

  

I have an old fashioned Swing-A-Way can opener, and a plethora of batteries at the ready!! 

Please stay away, Ruth

A Cozy Mitten

It was that . . .               

. . . now it's this!

Ta - Da !!

Waiting for a New Post . . .

. . . is like waiting for a Sunflower to Bloom!  

This is the Sunflower that had its start in the peat pot from the Science Museum! 

Louisiana - The Pelican State

State Motto  -  "Union, Justice, and Confidence."

The purchase added to the United States a region very different from others on the American map. The United States government made Louisiana residents go through a trial period before admitting Louisiana as a state.

On April 30, 1812, exactly nine years after the signing of the Louisiana Purchase, Congress admitted Louisiana as the eighteenth state in the Union.     http://lsm.crt.state.la.us/
