Rosemary and Alice,
Oh golly shucks, :
I googled Ocracoke Sound. Wow, Lady, You got place!!
I want to live by the ocean for awhile. My wife, Rose, and I are renting
a home in Cambria California for the months of February and March of 2008.
Mountains
and Ocean!! We are really looking forward to it. We are thinking
winters in Cambria, California and summers in Priest Lake, Idaho. Of course one
concern is access to good medical facilities. Am I crazy, but I love the smell of the ocean? Rose is from San Franisco and she constantly reminds me of the smells. I tell her, it is almost as good as the smell of the pines! And the sounds! The breakers - the wind in the high pines. Wowzers!!
I just today purchased (on line) a new digital camera so I will take some pictures of the lake cabin to share with you. I plan to leave tomorrow for painting, upkeep projects, etc.
OK Alice. I lived in Denver while I completed my masters at the University of Denver. So I know the area and love it. And I really enjoyed the hummingbird picture---- But I don't think that's your place. I am from Eastern Montana so I know the beauty of the high plains. So tell us about your "place". Or, is this idea a "Western thing"!!
Rose is 5 years + out from breast cancer and I have been recently put on yearly "call backs" on my bladder experience. And, Rose had a good "scope job" on the lower part of her Bod today so we're in good spirits and looking forward to the lake/grandkids experience.
enjoy those moments.......................
a friend,
Gordon
