28 years and counting


While at Jessica and our son in law's, You know who and I reached the milestone of 28 blissful years of marriage. We got a little crazy, we went kayaking. Jess and Uber were game. We all had a blast. First was learning to coordinate our rowing. We had to unlearn some bad habits we'd picked up oh, about, 28 years ago while using a canoe. That accomplished we went, I think, about 6 miles to the ocean and back again.

Look, we are totally in sync..... my paddle is backwards. Maybe that's why it was hard....
This guy understands the word relaxation.
To the ocean and beyond.......

Beautiful scenery and strange birds.


Jess and I were just talking about how strange it is to enjoy doing something for fun that is such hard work. I think that's the way most of our lives should go. Work hard at what ever you do, fun, family, friends, you appreciate it more, it makes it special.

Hey Babe, here's to 28 great years and hopefully at least that many more.

My pottery

Pottery painting Friday night was fun. More so when I saw the final results today. I got the idea from some expensive cups I saw and wanted, but couldn't justify. I love em. They are for those late afternoon espressos I shouldn't be drinking.....
Can't seem to stop with the bird theme. I really like birds. This bowl turned out better than I thought it could! It had been so long since I did the plate for my sister, I practiced first on a sushi plate. The bowl really turned out a lot better. Doing things that you're not comfortable with helps keep you young, right?
