15. How was your July 2024?
It was just fine though I missed the fireworks which made me mad.
The weather was lovely , hot but breezy and cooler at night, the sun was pretty, they sky was blue and as long as I didn't listen to the news, things were fine and dandy.
On Long Island, NY, I stayed on a hotel once own by Burt. It had lots of photos on the wall, including some of Angie Dickinson, his then-wife.
ReplyDeleteAlways making me smile, thanks. Have a beautiful day friend.
ReplyDeleteLovely summer thoughts. I think you enjoy the true meaning of summer much more than I do. It's just too hot here in Florida to enjoy it much. If we could afford to go places and see things and do things it might be different, but we mostly just stay at home indoors and keep cool and thank God for our air conditioner! We don't come out of summer hibernation until about mid September! LOL. Lovely post as always.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your answers, Annie. Enjoy the rest of your summer!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning ! Hope all is well with all of you !
ReplyDeleteInteresting questions and answers...Tahiti and Bora Bora sound lovely !
Congrats on the weight loss. Curious about the baby powder to remove sand as I've never heard of that. Sounds like a secret that those who live on the beach would know while us visitors are clueless!
ReplyDeletehaha, the baby powder trick is for those of us natives. Beach sand is notoriously sticky after it dries on your feet and you can spend an eternity trying to wipe it off. A little baby powder sprinkled on the feet and you can wipe it off very easily!
DeleteAh yes - Harry Enfield. He did a few of those "old-fashioned" information films.
ReplyDeleteThey are funny.
:o)
Cheers

He is very funny and his Cholmondoley-Warner skits are hysterical.
