That hammock was old in 1999. And Steve’s picture is better because of the shadow effect.

Carlton, who didn’t believe in celebrating anything – had two birthdays. We officially ignored both of them. April 16 is the day his Mother, who hated me, said he was born. Carlton said he was born on April 17 – which is what his birth certificate says.

Went to a craft fair back in my beloved old neighborhood today. It was all sclock art and photography, pottery, jewelry and this guy selling didgeridoos. It did not make me want to buy a didgeridoo. It did make me want to go to Australia. I am happy to report that I did not buy anything at the craft fair. I don’t have room for anything. Well, I do have room for more earrings. but I must have 100 pairs as it is. I never counted them. But, a trip to Australia wouldn’t take up any room.

Lousy picture – but it was a great bowl of what I call Faux Pho. Pho is a culinary state of mind more than a recipe. That is what I made for dinner tonight.

Who would have guessed that:

  1. I would live long enough to be in old folks asylum and
  2. That I would run up a bar tab at said establishment.

    1. Well, Leilani – a belated Hau`oli Lā Hānau to you. Yes, I think a trip to Australia is in order. I like trains and you guys have a couple of great train rides.

    1. Thanks Harlene – You will like Kripalu. They had a really embarrassing scandal about 10 years ago, but seem to have recovered their reputation.
