Symmetry on the Shore

 

 I found this in my folder from Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium trip

Taken from the car as we are driving over the bridge from Atlantic Beach to Morehead City.  The sky was putting on quite a show

Nature and Feline Friday with Rocky

Thank you for hosting!

 

Happy Feline Friday with my Ginger Nephew Rocky

Dearest Auntie HiC
Most of the snow & ice has melted away, so Mom took a walk down the driveway. 
Our little dead end, dirt road is still very icy. Most area students are transported by buses, and our county has no snow removal equipment for side roads,  so school has been canceled 3 days! 
 
While Mom was away, I got into a little trouble, but that’s a story for another day! 😹


❤️ Rocky

Today would have been my parent's 71st anniversary.  
My biological father died when I was 2 1/2 years old.

My mom and dad were married January 16, 1954, nine days  after my 5th birthday.

This is the story I was told about how they met.  

*******************

Each afternoon he watched as she walked to work

at Montgomery Wards where she worked on Saturdays.
(they always referred to it a Monkey Wards, no clue why)

They lived on the same street blocks apart. Never met

He had just returned from three years in the Army.

He loved how her pony tail bounced and swayed.

Her route took her through a park.

One day he decided to follow her (I accused him of stalking her).

As she walked under a tree,

A bird had a pooping SPREE. 

It landed smack on her ponytail.

However, being the gentleman that he was

He never admitted that this spree gave him glee.

It was time to introduce himself, he told her what had happened

offered her his hankie...and the rest as they say was history

This is a photo of my parents at our daughter and son in law's wedding August 15, 1998

A funny from my Honey

The  CEC (Christmas Eve Crud) gave me laryngitis...BIG time.

My honey is very dry witted.

One day he commented: 

"you were a little 'hoarse' yesterday, but today you are a Clydesdale".  

After he said it, he was a bit apprehensive thinking maybe I wasn't ready for a giggle

I love Clydesdale horses...It gave me the happies and giggles too!!

Awww Monday with Kat

Dearest Auntie HiC

Friday we had a Winter Storm Warning for north Georgia.

We received more freezing rain than snow, which is no fun!

We lost power twice, but Dad had the portable generator ready, and the wood stove kept us warm.  Mom says it’s time for a full-house generator, like a Generac or Kohler.

Auntie is beginning to think Boo Boo da Bear🐻 is brilliant...Hibernation is beginning to sound good to me.
