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!

 They will smile right back at YOU!

Haul Out The Holly!


"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!

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!
