"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

This is my grandson:

Izzie your posting tells the story, you had a wonderful time, so happy for you. Post as many photos as you like we sure will enjoy them. Your jaw is out I can well imagine, probably never stopped talking........

He's just lovely, Mman! it looks as if he might have a thing or two to say.

Oh look at the handsome little chap - Conner - truly gorgeous in the gaga fashion - you and Stacy must be so proud. Hope you are manging lots of cuddles. Thank you so much for sharing his pics. THANKU J..... love and hugs. xxx



Oh Beth - it is romantic - NDevon is for me is far more dramatic and rugged - and my preference and it is so........... extreme - yet completely beautiful. When I'm there, it's like ... well, take me here when my time comes - I could spend an eternity there.



Ha - when we were going on the ferry G asked me if I would be go OK travelling across - his daughter has a phobia about boats - I laughed really loud and said "i live on a ship - I'll be just coco." course, he doesn't know about this ship yet - i did make me chuckle.


ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - lovely nite- I am truly exhausted and have to be up in just over 6 hours so I mustn't post pics tonite - I MUST go to bed. Full on day tomorrow and the evening - may climb a tor for a little adventure sunset - and have Thursday off - so that will be fab. need to get thru the day first tho.

Can't keep my eyes open - been gardening for a long while and work today has done me in.

Gonna try and settle now - flying on my cloud right now - just a super evening.

Lovin' y'all - from my heart to all of yours. xxxx


always, wherever xox

Good night "Sailor" , rest well.

So. Listen up cabin boys.

I need pix of any and all of you in sailor-striped sweaters.

For the Alexandrian part of our dance gala, we're sort of dancing in response to an (imaginary) sailor lad who's come in from the harbour in Alexandria to look at the lovely girls in the market.

I need someone to imagine Show me your best, fellas!

I still have some pics of me in uniform laying around somewhere.
Of course, they are 20 year old pics, but what the heck.
I'll see if I can find them.


Now, I am just learning how to do this, so lets see if this works.
You should be able to see 6 pictures...

Stacy and Connor



The 3 of us at the Zoo



My dog Rico

Stacy



Now I need to learn how to make then smaller, but I will.

Now those just made it to the "what made me smile today" thread!

Hi ehBeth, the best I could do.

hmmm

I was hoping for something a touch more mmmmmmmmm butch. But you do look cute in those floppy bangs

m.m. What a fabulous family. Love the one of the three of you at the zoo, and your German Shepherd, Rico, is beautiful as is your Connor. Tell Stacy hi for me, and give that baby a warm kiss from Letty.

Nearly exactly 40 years ago ...

Sweet pics M.M. - beautiful baby - beautiful family.

I am getting up and getting moving...taking the boys to the park to play in the water with a friend. Tomorrow is the science museum....

OH AND...I have a van now. Not new - but my three little fellers are not all smashed in one seat in the back anymore. G-baby was getting too big for the harness seat - I am so happy to finally have something I can pick up my friends and their kids and go together in as well...that is if they only have 2 kids!
And the poor Prof. has been driving to work with no air conditioner...in 90 degree weather with 80% humidity - that is just cruel. But he has A.C. now. So glad for him.

Nice pic Walter...how in the world do you put your hand on them so quickly? So impressive. I am working on the organizing of the pics...maybe by the end of the summer...HA!

I hope you all are having a wonderful day.
see you later!

Hello Izzie. Hello crew.

A family indeed.......lunchtime,..day being broken up, purposely, peanut butter, slightly burnt toast,....upstairs office,...hard drive whirling,...pondering everybodys posts.

Mismi. I was at Orange Beach Gulf Shores two years ago. Such an under rated wonderful place. ....hope today your re entry into civilization is smoother.

Mysytery man. Nice pictures. Especially like the one with German Shepard and deflated ball......wondering how many other items Mr. G Shep has under his belt.

Walter Hinteler. A nice picture too. Especially like the vessel you are on.

Good day.

It's actually on my 'navy wall' and since I look straight towards it ...



It's the "Crocodile", 'Krokodil', L 751, ex USS LSM-491. (Our company commander during my three months in the Navy Training Battalion had been it's commanding officer before - we had two days "on sea" that time, end of July 1969. [This officer became a couple of years later the commanding officer of the landing craft squadron - thus my 'boss' during my reserve exercises.])

morning crew.

cap'n seems to have berthed us downwind of the treatment plant again, the stink is thick this mornin'.

oh well. just hold yer nose for a bit, and it will go way...

some sailors having fun...

Love it, Walter. I guess this will be the second year that I dance "for Walter".

Hey hey crew

Looks like we are sailing!

I have been missing you crew

I haven't stopped today - am shattered..... ooooof....

I did have 10 minutes or so - where the world may have stopped - I can't be sure - I wasn't asleep but my hand was numb Went into the other city and saw my lady, who took me into a garden.... figuratively and all... I was also telling her all about you all - it's good to talk out loud and have someone listen about my world here - as in A2K crew and me talking to y'all - aaah... complicated reasons for shutting my real world here down - she got me to do some breathing exercises - which I now have to practice to hopefully send me off to sleep (ha!) - she says it may take a while (no kidding - ha!) ... I still have to take my potion for a long while - but, gonna give the "push tummy out and breathe in, then breathe out and count backwards from 10 and you are reeeeeeelaxxxxxxxing..." thingymajig - and see how I go.

I need to dash off again.

No. I actually need to stop a while and just sit here - but can't right now


Jeff - LOVE YOUR FAMILY! How happy are those pics. THANKU so much. Please send my love to Stacy x



oh oh oh nooooooooooooo.............. gotta go gotta go.... will try and get back later - I'm hoping to sleep tonite................

Smooches x
