Happy Hour

"IF A LIFETIME CAN BE LIKENED TO A DAY, THEN THIS IS HAPPY HOUR!"

Mother, Mother Ocean

Mother, Mother Ocean, I've heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you, switch from sails to steam
In your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen
Most of 'em dream, most of 'em dream
Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred year's too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late

Yoda

"Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is."
―Yoda, to Luke Skywalker

Counted the Stars

Counted the stars on the 4th of July
Wishing we were rockets bursting in the sky
Talking about redemption and leaving things behind
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs
To remind me of a time
These pictures and these photographs
Let me know I'm doin' fine
We used to be so happy once upon a time
Once upon a time
But the sun sank west of the Mendocino County Line
And the sun sank west of the Mendocino County Line

Bakersfield Condors Teddy Bear Toss Game

We took Trevor to the Teddy Bear Toss Game in Bakersfield tonight. He is the son of friends of ours and it was the first pro hockey game.
The Condors won in overtime!
There was even some pushing and shoving.........

As usual, there were a lot of stuffed animals on the ice when the Condors scored their first goal!

This is a new tradition for us. We love hockey and giving for something good. All of the stuffed animals will be given to needy and hospitalized children in Kern County.

Looks like a great night out. There's a minor league team in Amarillo and I've been to ONE of their games. Two hours there and two hours back is just too damned far for me.
