I do love the zoo!!!

The Sistine Chapel

Walt Disney World

There are so many others but these are the first coming to mind.

Our free World famous Zoo !!! Love our zoo I’ve been many times

Alaska - I’ve wanted to go since I was a kid - I think it’s absolutely gorgeous loved every minute there !!

Maine - Arcadia national Park beautiful place just a coastal regions of Maine or one of a place to go visit I can recommend several towns you can pop in and say hi to my relatives! Don’t go in the winter it’s not fun if you go on the summer take mosquito repellent you’ll need it


Ireland / Grand Cayman / Jamaica / Mexico / Bahamas / Norway / UK / Canada - have enjoyed visiting these places tremendously all very beautiful and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to visit them - each one has their own distinctive features I really enjoyed the ones with beaches of course with Grand Cayman and Jamaica being my favorites personally I think Jamaica has the best coffee in the world just my personal opinion

Boston - I’ve been to Boston several times as I have relatives there but my last visit was truly just as a tourist it was on a cruise and I had a most enjoyable time visiting this wonderful city I was very grateful that I got to do it it was one of the best tours I have ever taken on a cruise - and of course she got to get a lobster roll and our next stop is Canada and of course I had to get another lobster roll

I’m very grateful that I’ve gotten to visit several states in the United States and someday I hope to get out west and visit lots of states out there I’ve done almost every state on the East Coast but I have not been out West and I am so wanting to do that

I would really like to see Cuba some day I hope in my lifetime that will be something we can do

CBS this morning did a good luck montage to Gayle King as she seeks and prepare for rocket trip
... but also said "what does the world look like from that vantage point".... how sad or how lucky we here are that we don't need a rocket to have exclusive to the rest to the rest of the world amazing vantage point.

Gayle King will never sit in a meadow abundant with flowers at the bottom of a snow covered volcano and listen to it fall apart. On the Pacific Crest trail in Oregon is the most beautiful spot on the entire PCT hiking trip. MT Jefferson . It is very accessible by anyone who does endurance walking but few seek that experience

Gayle King will never pull over in Northern California and just marvel at the redwood country and take a hike. Redwood is a opening musical on Broadway... granted in 1983 I did see the play K-2 on Broadway because it was a unique stage set and I love mountains and I will never make it to K-2...so northern California get ready for a crush of folks seeking enlightened vantage points

Gayle King will never step off the Amtrak Coast starlight after spending 20 hours with her boarding in King county, Seattle, never step off onto the concrete platform in Sacramento for a hour long fresh air break... for that I am very grateful...it will be our longest break as the beautiful ornament building is over 400 yards away from the rails . there is a massive sky scraper next to the tracks that has taken over 13 years to build.. I saw the foundation in 2011 ... other side of the commute train tracks are historical brick warehouses.. PDX has one at Union station and on the north Frisco bay area are some brick buildings on the tracks

V Vantage points that don't need a rocket..
Vantage points for the road less taken... and that has made all the difference

Today's Topic (Wed, 4/9) - 3 things you're grateful for beginning with the letter S

 

[slo]

Good Morning Friends!

#1 - Sweaters - especially on a cold, raw and rainy day like we’re going to have today.

#2 - Strength - I work hard to keep myself strong. It’s easy to lose muscle mass at any age, but even easier when you’re over 50.

#3 - Sunshine - I don’t care if it’s 0 degrees out or 95 degrees out. I love the sunshine at any temperature. Up until recently our puppy wanted nothing to do with laying in the sun, but yesterday he realized how nice it is, and I found him laying up by the bay window in the front room. This spot was my Sophie’s (RIP) favorite spot in the house, and now Otis is enjoying it too.

Sweaters huge fan here always have been wear them year-round that air conditioning gets awfully cold and lots of places

Sweatshirts - major part if my wardrobe wear one just about every day you can find me wearing them in the summer too

Sunshine I do enjoy a nice sunny day I’m always grateful to get one

 

[TiggerTrigger]

Well, DD16 and I are both S names but I'll go a different angle today for my three.

Supermarket Sushi - It's been my treat of late.
Hometown - My hometown in NJ begins with an S. Yay for Jersey Girls!!!
Sleep - I'm grateful when I get it. Last night wasn't the greatest, but it's generally been better of late.

DD... my Sarah She is my Sunshine! (see what I did there? )

Sunshine- it so grey here a lot of the time, especially at this time of the year. Even when we've tipped into the low 40s, it hasn't seemed very pleasant because it's been so grey.

Seashore... I love walking along the ocean!

Sandwiches, salad, Saturdays, soup, stagecrafts... I could go on, but I won't! (Sign-off!!!)

 

[bluecastle]

Strawberries
Star Trek (all variations, especially DS9)
Sanaa

Silver Moon shining spotlight bright
Stars shimmer on passing satellites
Spinny 14 foot cactus
Standing tall tonight by orb light
Shuttered winter visitor trailer still
Sending light up the palm tree trunk

#3 - Sunshine - I don’t care if it’s 0 degrees out or 95 degrees out. I love the sunshine at any temperature.
