JOO LIE

Here we are in July, humid weather, our first hurricane-Arhur- but I must say, it's getting better and better.

Swimming is one way to make the hot humid weather better, and I've been taking advantage of it, .
How people vacation here to stand in long lines in Mickeyworld is beyond me…I'd choose the lazy river, or reclining in my own cabana watching the football while sipping on a cool one.

  The beach- how we love it, sand and grit, waves, and undertows, heat, and sand castles, dragging everything you own, can be both, melty and fun so rent an umbrella and chairs and leave toting to someone else. 

 I haven't been yet this year, I always intend to but remember spring break and crowds, then July and crowds, eventually I will make it…
How will you spend the rest of your summer, where will you go?  The old swimmin' hole, Mickeyworld, or by the sea ………..

BY THE BEAUTIFUL SEA

From the musical "For Me and My Gal"

(Harold Atteridge / Harry Carroll) (1914)

Joe and Jane were always together.

Said Joe to Jane,

"I love summer weather,

So let's go to that beautiful sea,

Follow along,

Say you're with me!"

Anything that Joe would suggest to her

Jane would always think it was best for her.

So he'd get his Ford,

Holler:

"ALL ABOARD!

Gosh, I want to be:

By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea!

You and me, you and me, oh how happy we'll be!

When each wave comes a-rolling in

We will duck or swim,

And we'll float and fool around the water.

Over and under, and then up for air,

Pa is rich, Ma is rich, so now what do we care?

I love to be beside your side, beside the sea,

Beside the seaside, by the beautiful sea!

Have a wonderful summer no matter where you spend it. 

On with the show

My niece and niecette are about to leave tomorrow.

  It was nice to see them, it's been 4 years since,and it's time to get on with it. There is much to do next week, but first things first---by making this weekend count------.resting.
The weather....dear Florida.....has been rainy every dang day.  Messing up plans, shortening days of good intentions.
Went to the beach on Tuesday, it was lovely but  a storm blew in...weathermen are such liars, it was supposed to be a longer day of sunshine..of course today, is the day of truth.

I'm whooped. 

Yes, it'll be quiet  and the floors will stay uncluttered, the DVD player will long for Monsters, Inc., but I'll be strong. I can handle it. I know eventually they'll be back and by then we'll all be in another phase hopefully better than before, besides,  I'm sure they can't wait for their own pillows and beds, and freedom of space.  It's nice to leave but it's even better getting back.
 

Happy Trails till we meet again...y'all
