River focus

   The Hillsborough River, Temple Terrace FL

Family members, good friends, used to live on the banks of the Hillsborough River, and welcomed us to use their canoe. So on Thanksgiving Friday one year, my son and grandson and I did.

My digital camera was carefully carried as I sat in the prow of the boat.

Yes that was my season of red dyed hair! 2011, I believe.

It's amazing how quiet and peaceful a river is which has an interstate or two zooming close by.

It was wearing my shirt from the last place I'd been canoeing...several years before that. I haven't done such again. Will and  I give the same goofy smiles!

A bit later I visited the Hillsborough River in 2019, the year before my heart attack. But I traveled a lot in 2019, going to Colorado in the summer, twice to Florida, then Ohio that fall. And of course then there was the pandemic the next year also! I don't think I've ever had COVID. At least all the tests say not.

Set wide the window. Let me drink the day.

FYI

Disney saw more than 1.7 million total paid streaming cancellations during the 6 days they shut down Kimmel. The total includes Disney+, Hulu and ESPN. AMAZING!!

There are now over 2,200 peaceful protests planned for October 18. This is the most ever. HELL YES!
