TGIF!!! Have a GREAT Friday and let's just let it go at that!
Mr.Ed, glad to hear all is healed!
Yes, someone did a great job with you!! You are one of the fortunate ones, most are not with us anymore.
Going to be a HOT one tomorrow, near or at 90 and probably muggy. That surprises me because of all the rain yesterday morning but it was muggy and hot yesterday too. Blahhhh! I'll be inside where it's cool.
I'm getting to that stage I do every year when I start wishing for cool Fall weather.
Carol - I'll be celebrating when they tell me I can go back to the lifestyle I love. I don't think they'll ever completely let me go but Mermaid is just gathering dust with a for-sale sign hanging on her. Pout, pout!
Going back to a comment of a couple of days ago: The trees haven't bought into it yet but it certainly looks and feels like "fall" out there. Tomorrow's bounce back to the 90s will probably knock all that foolishness right out of my head and I'll be crawling back into the air conditioning.
Mariposa - How's the wet t-shirt contest going? Not much I can do to help but I sympathize. I hate high humidity. You always have SNOW to look forward to...... I know! I'm BAD!
I lost
Those t-shirts are really fickle.
We here in 'O' don't have the really extremes of climate you in the other 'O' have. It has been quite some time since we have had measurable snow. We also don't get that sticky summer weather you have, maybe a few days but that's it.
Actually we still have a lot of really beautiful weather ahead for us in Sept if all goes as normal. We even have had it last through the first week of Oct. Then it's just grey and wet until "July 5".
Mariposa, sorry about your losing the T-Shirt contest..bring a change of clothes to work - :)
Mr Ed, I would have thought the Mermaid would have sold by now.
Carol - I've had some offers but nothing close to what I want. She is fully decked out with all the latest electronics including computerized hands-free docking, two radars, and redundant satellite navigation systems Plus, I'm not sure I won't get back onto her at some point. I think that's the dream that keeps me from accepting a lesser offer. She's only six years old and comparable boats just aren't available. Did I mention she sleeps six plus two crew bunks. I have kept her fully maintained and she can be out of drydock and ready to sail in 24 hours.
Carol - BTW... Thank you for your suggestion about Portland Art Museum looking at Auntie Em's paintings. They didn't have anyone with first-hand knowledge about Boissevain's work but they put me in touch with a gallery in Perth(where he worked). I'm shipping them the paintings for cleaning and evaluation. They think they might be studio portraits. I talked with Izzy, Auntie Em's friend, and she says one of the portraits is a young Auntie Em. She described one perfectly and she says they talked about it and what a pain it was posing for it. What a kick in the pants if it is. It wouldn't be worth much but I don't think that would even matter.
