There Was A Boat

The ice is out, although it feels more like winter in the air lately.  Presently it's a cool 25 degrees. 




......and yet the boats are beginning to come out to play.



Madeline was the first to arrive.

So far.

 




Even all the sister boats are out there setting up so they can spend the summer working the lake.

I've had a dream about a special boat.

For the last four years there's been a favorite old boat of mine.
No, I won't tell you her name.
But every spring I wander about
and always catch up with her again.
Although
this year, that weathered for sale sign may have been of luck for her owners.

I still haven't seen her yet this year.



Some things, we just shouldn't, leave to chance.

If you want something badly enough

will it to be yours.


Otherwise, you may be out of luck.

I'll keep looking.

Some things shouldn't be left to chance.


"One aspect of serendipity to bear in mind is that you have to be looking for something in order to find something else." - Lawrence Block


Who knows, there may be another boat out there......

Saturday Centus - It Takes A Mighty Big Chair To

THIS IS A SATURDAY CENTUS POST

              ....and we are live from the chilly side of the lake, where diving is nearly impossible, without a severe headache! 
     If only!  Really this is being staged for Miss (had a horrible-tooth issue Jenny) at Saturday Centus, "Off on my tangent" blog (So sorry hope you're all better SOON) and in her distress, she offers a photo of a chair, "to use or not to use" but her prompt is a must, "The chair dominated the small room" and up to 100 words with it...and more photos if we desire.

Are you game?




From the Capital in St Paul, Minnesota......"The chair dominated the small room....."

At the end of the meeting there were sullen faces and no more coffee.



But who really cares what a silly chairperson has to say?

They can try to pass silly laws......

It's not size or who a person is that really matters.

It's about who we are, inside.

.....and how we make the most of what we've got that truly matters!



WE CAN DO ANYTHING

So how about playing along with us?  If you want to share your own Centus or just read more
