now now we don't want to drown either,i wish my graps was still around i always found it interesting what i could learn for him about the past...hope all is well..

i love that pic!

You know one time I drank so much at the beach I fell asleep then woke up and I thought I was dead because I saw no one there... then I looked the other way and saw my friends were there so I realized no. i wasn't dead.

OK that was a stupid comment. But I can't think of anything smart to say

i see that you are still drawn to the mysteries of the sea. there's something so chilling about that list of shipwrecks. for a while, i was convinced that i had drowned in a past life, thus explaining my inability to swim and my fear of drowning.

i'm mad for stoner-metal right now! i got Electric Wizard's "Dopethrone" on double-white vinyl, even!

you might like Rasputina. 2 cellists and a drummer. there's a sort of gothic/black humour thing about them that i rather like.

i made it my desktop

Clearly not me.

But I'm constantly trying...

I am absolutely fascinated with history and especially European and WWII-era... I still remember the tiny bit that I discussed with my grandfather about the war, even though I was a little kid. I cannot do that any longer as all my grandparents are deceased. You are so lucky to have that link to the past

I clicked the link to the MoMA page but the video clips don't play...what's with the elephants? I just see the still photos. Hope they aren't suffering...

I love reading your journals and your photos are by far the very best on this site.

Itz nice to see someone who has an interest in history

lovely goddess it is good to hear from you again and glad that the music of the masters has given you quiet reflection and peace. the pictures of you are beautiful and amazing-but what warms my heart and makes me smile or weep is the core of who you are/the light you have within you/the strength that flows from you. just wanted to let you know you are loved for YOU, and all else is merely perverbial icing on the cake. give yourself a hug from me. take care and sweet dreams.

It is interesting when you think of all the "what if's" from our parents and grand parents. The subtlest of changes would have made us non-existant.

That first photo is beautiful.

I have not been that drunk in a long time, I would love to walk by the sea with you at night, the last time I was at the sea was when I was in Italy like 6 or 7 years ago.

So if your grandfather had not gotten sick he would have never meet your grandmother and he would have been killed at sea and then we would not have you.

What kind of music are those bands?

Did you take that photo of the eye?

I will have to think about the compilation and get back to you on that one.

So are you going to take photos of your town for me?

You should join my new group, since you like unordinary pets.

Exotic and Unusual Pets

Your journals are like magnets, aren't they?

Hi!

I'm envious of you for your location and the ability to visit the sea occasionally. I'm pretty much land locked in the middle of the country....in fact, just about smack dead center in the middle of the States.....only lakes and rivers around here. The next time you're at the sea, stop and listen to the waves crashing for a few seconds, just for me.

I also think it's great that you can spend time with your Grandfather and learn all of his history and the history of the time.....I've always thought that the men and women of the Allied forces that fought World War II were the greatest generation. If my Dad were alive today, he'd be 85....possibly about the same age as your Grandfather.

I've been listening to a group called the Rippington's a lot lately. It's kind of hard to describe them.....kind of a smooth jazz maybe? I'm not sure what to call it....I just know that I like it.

Hope all is well with you and that you have many things in your life right now that make you smile and laugh.

I wish i could be bye a scotish sea at such a late.

You're amazing, I love you. I wanna go to the sea with you one day...

xox.
