Music Monday – “I’m free/It took me in my whole life/I got the keys to the cages/I’m ready for bright lights”

Wish I’d been able to see U2 at The Sphere (extra jealous talking to a coworker yesterday who said they’d been!) but YouTube videos will have to suffice… “Atomic City” – U2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2v0Wa2i4yM

Secular Sunday – Elvis Presley Wedding Chapel

Did I mention we’re going to Vegas for Easter?   What’s that old line – if money is your God, then Vegas is Heaven?  And I think that makes Elvis the analogy’s Jesus. 😉

Music Monday – “He said ‘Son, you ever been to Vegas?’ I said ‘No’/He said ‘That’s where we’re gonna go, You need a change of pace’/And when we hit the strip with all the wedding chapels and the neon signs/He said ‘I left my wallet in El Segundo’ and proceeded to take two grand of mine/We made tracks to the Mandalay Bay hotel/Asked the bell boy if he’d take me and my monkey as well?”

Such a good song.  Loved the Robbie Williams documentary on Netflix too! “Me and My Monkey” – Robbie Williams

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Zumanity (May 2012)

Happy Anniversary Shea!

What a difference twenty-one years makes – mostly in the quality of digital photography! 😉

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – First Dementia Signs (February 2018)

One good thing about being an obsessive journal keeper since right around the time I graduated high school (and that those journals, started in WordPerfect, have now all been digitized and are completely searchable.) So that’s how I know that the very first reference I made to my mom showing signs of dementia was in […]

Friday Fun Link – Dreams Playa Mujeres

As of today, I’m officially on holidays and will be here in a few short days…and likely very few blog posts until we return in a week.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Snorkelling in Hawaii (January 2012)

So glad the tour guide on this snorkeling tour didn’t actually need a bribe to make sure he didn’t drop our water camera when he swam underneath us to take this unique photo! 😉

Music Monday – “Take a trip from Canada/I want all of us to go/To my Island home/where Jah love forever flows”

One week today!!! “Palm Trees” – Tasman Jude
