Watch out for the Elderly People!!

Wreck of the Ten Sail

Some friends who were down in February drove around the Island and came back to tell me that they stopped here.  So, I was watching for it, but we passed it.  Michael turned around for us to check it out.
A huge brass propeller ~ yes, huge!!
Some beautiful flowers I saw
A monument in memory of the ship wreck
Some other people were visiting this site and asked if we'd like for them to take our picture.  That was very kind of them!
After a llooonnnnggggg day this is what happened with some people!

Six Years Ago Today ~ 4/2

 
 
Six years ago today, April 2nd, my dear sister, Thelma, left her sick earthly body behind and is no longer suffering with sickness and pain from cancer!!  I miss her so much.  There are still times when I think about picking up the phone to call and see how she's doing then realize she isn't here anymore.  As much as I miss her I wouldn't wish her back from Heaven.  She was a great "oldest" sister to all of us.  I love you, Thelma!!

Happy Birthday to My Momma

It doesn't seem possible that today is my Momma's birthday and she isn't here to celebrate with!!  I sure miss her sooooooooo much.  She was one special lady to my brother's, sister's and I.  I've been reminiscing about her a lot today and have such fond memories.  I don't wish her back from Heaven, but sure do miss her.  Mom was born on April Fools Day.  I remember her always telling me that her father thought for sure that before she was born she was going to be a boy.  Did she ever surprise them :o)  I love you, dear Momma, and wish you another Happy Birthday in Heaven!!  Since you aren't here for your birthday treat I think I'll make an orange float with vanilla ice cream that you loved and think of you as I eat it!!
