Halloween-ing on my morning walk here in Historic District Savannah.



I love this little house …





So the other night, I did a silly post about photographing older folks (“older folks” meaning me).
Here’s a link, in case you missed it:

Tonight, I am back in “My Square,” Washington Square, here in Historic District Savannah …
Reading …


And I thought, “Should I do another selfie tonight?“
I started …

“There we go,” I thought, “that angle meets the criteria.”
Then got a bit braver …

And only because fellow blogger buddy Matt VERY generously said my best feature was my smile …



It’s getting dark, so I should go in. HR will be ready for dinner soon. 



May you have a Joyful and Peaceful Wednesday night.
… the more the concept of a good picture of myself changes.
This evening, for instance, I walked the block or so from our place here in Historic District Savannah to sit up on the bluff from the Savannah River and read.

OK, OK, maybe it’s not The Iliad. But it is a whole bunch of escapist fun.
For some inexplicable reason, I decided to take a selfie …

And there you go — an Older Age Portrait.
HAPPY MONDAY EVENING FROM SAVANNAH!

A blog category of pics I’ve taken of HR (Hubby Robert) and … well, just about anything.
So because of Hurricane Helene and NO POWER, Robert and I had to get outta Dodge (well, Savannah). So we hightailed it over to Columbus, Georgia, where younger daughter Emily lives.
Before going over to visit (and bother) Emily, we drove to downtown Columbus and the Chattahoochee River to see what we heard was “a tumultuous scene.” This “scene” was caused by the city having to open the floodgates to relieve the pressure, so as to avert further dangerous flooding in the Columbus area.
“Open the floodgates?” Perhaps you didn’t know Columbus had a dam. (Yes I said the word … “dam”— alternate spelling, “damn.”)
OK, enough of this silly rigamarole.
Here’s a short film, entitled “The Two R’s – the Damn River and Robert” …
As you can probably tell, Robert had no idea I was producing this award-winning film. 

But there he is, in a rather proud posture.
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.


Gloriously colorful, geometric shapes everywhere!







2. The ongoing belief that our bodies know how to be well and are always trying to move toward wellness.
3. Colorful carrots!


I made a delicious new dish, Maple Roasted Rainbow Carrots with Fennel Seeds, with some of them.

4. Our “Travel Buddies.” Have I told you about them? Three silly little stuffed animals HR and I have given each other over the years. But they travel with us EVERYWHERE we go.


I’ll do a blog post about some of their adventures soon.
5. Friday!

Joyful weekend ahead for you!
You know you’re getting old when you get invited to this …

(Ex-wife Donna and I graduated from incredibly beautiful Berry College in Rome, Georgia way back in 1974.)
At the same time, you’re out in your also-incredibly beautiful Savannah Square reading this …

Ho hum. Life goes on.
With beauty all around.

Bear eating cotton candy …

A funny, slightly irreverent and heartwarmingly truthful look at the various ways of seeing who Jesus “was” …

There are 3 good arguments that Jesus was BLACK:
1. He called everyone brother
2. He liked Gospel
3. He didn’t get a fair trial
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was JEWISH:
1. He went into His Father’s business
2. He lived at home until he was 33
3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was sure He was God
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was ITALIAN:
1. He talked with His hands
2. He had wine with His meals
3. He used olive oil
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was a CALIFORNIAN:
1. He never cut His hair
2. He walked around barefoot all the time
3. He started a new religion
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was an AMERICAN INDIAN:
1. He was at peace with nature
2. He ate a lot of fish
3. He talked about the Great Spirit
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was IRISH:
1. He never got married.
2. He was always telling stories.
3. He loved green pastures.
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was MEXICAN:
1. He treated his mama like she was a saint.
2. He always wore llantas and a serape.
3. He was a carpenter who could fix anything.
But the most compelling evidence of all – 3 proofs that Jesus was a WOMAN:
1. He fed a crowd at a moment’s notice when there was virtually no food
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn’t get it
3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was still work to do.
(Robert found this somewhere on the internet but couldn’t remember where.)
