…nothing says love like chickensh*t! Let me explain…
This year we celebrated a week early so we can be with our mothers in IL next weekend. We have a tradition in our family for Mother’s Day; full body massage, breakfast in bed, everyone working in the yard planting trees, vegetables, etc., nice dinner, but the best part is I get to clean the chicken coop that contains about 6 months worth of crap from our long, hard Wisconsin winter. Gotta admit there were a couple of times I almost lost my breakfast [note to self; next year eat AFTER!] but I got ‘er done. All three overloaded wheelbarrows full…
How about you? What will you do to honor your wife on Mother’s Day?
 Spring is my favorite time of year in Door County. Over the past 17 years, residents have engaged in a program to plant my favorite flower — daffodils — EVERYWHERE. 2.2 million to be exact. The days when they start to bloom not only please my sense of beauty, but they signal that warm weather is here to stay for just a little bit; http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/wisconsins-door-county-celebrates-spring-in-style-89777112.html
Blogger @davidkanigan used the phrase ‘tug of war’ in a recent post and it reminded me of this Paul McCartney ballad — a forgotten favorite that you may have missed. The accompanying images of Paul and Linda made me nostalgic and the lyrics are actually quite good [and understandable]. Enjoy…
It’s a tug of war
What with one thing and another
It’s a tug of war
We expected more
But with one thing and another
We were trying to outdo each other
In a tug of war
In another world
In another world
We could stand on top of the mountain
With our flag unfurled
In a time to come
In a time to come
We will be dancing to the beat played
On a different drum
It’s a tug of war
Though I know I mustn’t grumble
It s a tug of war
But I can’t let go
If I do you’ll take a tumble
And the whole thing is going to crumble
It’s a tug of war
In years to come they may discover
What the air we breathe and the life we lead
Are all about
But it won’t be soon enough
Soon enough for me
No it won’t be soon enough
Soon enough for me
In another world
We could stand on top of the mountain
With our flag unfurled
In a time to come we will be dancing to the beat played
On a different drum
We will be dancing to the beat
Played on a different drum
We will be dancing to the beat
Played on a different drum
It’s a tug of war, (a tug of war, a tug of war)
What with one thing and another
It’s a tug of war
We expected more
But with one thing and another
We were trying to outscore each other
In a tug of war
Incredible footage of a one thousand strong dolphin pod. You might want to turn down the sound a little to drown out the non-essential comments by people.
(You are allowed to press the mute button to enjoy the view in awe and silence….)
The huge pod of about 1,000 Common Dolphins went on an incredible flight through the ocean off the coast of Dana Point, Southern California, which has the greatest density of oceanic dolphins per square mile of anywhere on earth. This is a very rare occurrence.
The line of wild dolphins could be seen from miles away churning up the water to the delight of whale watching passengers and crew aboard Captain Dave’s Dolphin and Whale Safari.
