It’s nine fifteen AM, and G is rushing around putting his socks on, putting his pants on, and bringing me a yogurt for lunch. His shirt is downstairs with the 7 to 10 day delivery pile of clean clothing. He was kind and brought my stuff up yesterday. We have watched Sunday Morning with Jane Pauley as we always do. We have eaten half a muffin, and we have sent out hope that G can find a parking place on his half of the park. It’s PRIDE here in San Diego and there’s no parking in the PRIDE half of the park.

I lost last Saturday’s photos. Somehow, I managed to drag and drop them somewhere and they vanished. For those who don’t know, that photo at the top is of us and the queen Mary.

Queen Mary Updates.

“Today we come to the happy task of sending on her way the stateliest ship now in being.” King George on the Queen Mary’s launch.

There are history’s, photos, and the story of her long journey from Liverpool to LA. Not only was that an epic journey, it was a horror story.

Here is another link that should be amusing. The PRIDE Parade.

I did a tour of the Queen Mary back in the 1970s. It's probably been further restored than when I saw it.

I had a friend who got married on the Queen Mary. It was a beautiful setting, elegant and yet intimate. Hope G found his parking space!

I would have loved seeing the Queen Mary .
