HEATWAVE ♫♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥

~ Our heatwave together ~

Yesterday was our 42nd anniversary.
42 years on the wing
soaring very quickly
'so full of joy and sadness'
This is our life
~ ups and downs and all arounds ~
like no others
because
quite simply
this is the path we chose.
~
The ebbs and flows of our life together
carving many stories
which mean so much to us
may bore the reader
(then again may not)
~
We have always maintained that telling the truth
sharing your feelings
 and
troubles
helped maintain a long relationship.
~
So here we are 42 years later
not suffering from a heatwave
but living in a heatwave
of love & respect
and
above all
DANCE!

DAWN OF A NEW YEAR ~ 2015 !!

After eating a special brunch 

called a Hangover Brunch

at Emma's Eatery in Eastern Passage

on New Year's Day

we ventured out to the boardwalk to walk off the meal.

Come on you two,

if you are going to leave me in the car 

while you eat 

salt cod benny's

~~ YUM ~~

then you better have some energy

to get moving,

New Years resolutions and all.

The snow squall of an hour ago

beared down on us

and

disappeared as fast as it came.

Blue skies everywhere.

Halifax gleamed in the background

because the skies had opened up

and

let the sun shine through.

This ol' rusty structure stuck out

like a sore thumb

but really suited the place just fine.

The white sand isn't sand

but snow.

The tide is coming in and the white will be gone before you know it.

We are heading over there to Halifax 

very soon to Jim's brother's Dennis' place.

But before we head over I have to check out absolutely

everything that moves on this boardwalk.

Makes sense to me.

The other side of this spit of land really shows you

the snowfall amounts.

So before I knew it 

we had completely circled the boardwalk

and 

were heading for the car

and

so much fun 

at the New Years get-together.

WHERE IN THE WORLD IS SUPER MOON #3 ?

Everyone has been talking about 

SUPER MOON #3

so we set out to find this anomaly.

Look it isn't over there in Halifax,

I just see 2 bridges and high-rises.

Maybe it's down on the boardwalk in Eastern Passage

All these peeps seem to be throwing fish lines

out into the water trying to hook 

the SUPER MOON #3

(they better watch out because 

those 2 big huge orbs above them called bokeh

just might flatten them, I think.)

Do you think those are moons?

Far out into the still water

even Mr. Orangie wasn't able to help me,

it didn't matter how many times Jim threw him out there

No, SUPER MOON #3 was appearing.

I really think the fishers thought that their lines could catch the moon.

Even this zippy speed boat slipped by

and they said they couldn't find

SUPER MOON #3 either.

(Look behind you!)

So we decided to leave The Passage 

and all my new friends

 heading to Cow Bay

about a 15 minutes drive down the shoreline.

These birds were congregating on mass

over the water descending to the calmness and rocks below.

Do you see something faintly on the horizon?

Oh yes you do because I sure can!

SUPER MOON #3

being crushed by Jim.

He has awful big fingers to be able to do that,

don't you think?

The bay was absolutely still

as the moon slowly rose into our view.

Then this fellow appeared and stroked effortlessly across the bay

which is the ocean for those who may think this is a lake.

It ain't.

He had the entire place to himself.
He zenned on the water
unbeknownst to us
zenning on the shoreline
finally discovering our
SUPER MOON #3.
