My Dragon Fly and Me

If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

It’s a Florida picture..I went out on the patio and the wind is making it feel colder than it is..I was ready for a “warm”scene. It’s going to be even windier tomorrow...but at least the sun may shine.

Mousy ears, pointy nose: Western Michigan University senior Will Peters' snowball-biting pet is a 1) Lab mix or 2) lab rat.

A bundle of monkeys: Wild macaques huddle together against the elements in bitterly cold Qianling Park, China's Guiyang Province.

Great photo Kathy!

Just an expression, boys: A bronze Mark Twain shoots the bull with two Texans at Trinity Park near the Fort Worth Stock Show.

Rainbow-powered: Wind turbines spin during a sunlit rain near Palm Springs. Heavy rainstorms in Southern California have heightened fears of mudslides, especially in areas scorched by last year's fires

Tyrol-ler derby: A plane soars high above a hot-air balloon during the Kaiserwinkel Alpine Ballooning competition in Koessen, Austria.

OMG, I thought I was dead eight years and didn’t know it.

[Soaring Feather]

The Tour Begins


This NOT our boat, it is a Disney Cruise, KEEP OFF of these ships, they have more kids then old sailing ships had rats and their LOUD!
(you can hear them standing on the pier!)


This is on our ship 'Carnival Glory
This is looking down to the Lobby deck where one of the bars is. Those are the elevators on the left. Elegant is the word, and pampered is the style. (maybe we ought to plan a Lair Gathering of Hungry Poets in 2009 on one of these babies!!! (hint)


This is our stateroom with balcony, the bed was a cloud, and the room service was 24/7 and NICE! The balcony was just big enough for two in chairs and great for sipping wine and watching the sunset.


One of the dishes for 'Food Night', the chefs made their specialties, and we voted on them. After the voting, we ate everything in sight! The food on this trip was incredible, and served with style and a dash of panache.


Just one of the deserts the chefs made for Food Night, there was more sugar in that room, then in all of Cuba's sugar cane harvest for the last three years!

Yes, I wanna go back already!!!!!!!

More to follow tomorrow!

Good morning everyone!

The East Coast is waiting for a storm from Tomkow!
We are on storm alert today, tonight and into Friday.
Thanks, Tom!

His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow."
