Great day out kayaking. We planned our trip route to coincide with flyovers by the US Navy Blue Angels & Air Force Thunderbirds to commemorate Healthcare Workers.

Part of our route had us passing some US Coast Guard facilities, then out into Curtis Bay, then along the Patapsco River toward Fort McHenry (Star Spangled banner fame). We had the lovely Francis Scott Key Bridge in our background...

I understand the depression.. I can’t stand being stuck inside for any amount of time! Hopefully today has dawned brighter .. warmth and sunshine sent your way!

I think the straw roof will be adorable though I can’t imagine any of your work not being a hit.
I agree.

Nice work, but what about the shed! Painting, electrical, a microwave...some tools, a hidey hole side door so Opo can visit. Internet, a nice polished work bench aka bar. !
I keep asking you what color you want the interior? Tools no problem but you better bring your lathe. Workbench aka bar. I was thinking black walnut finished with epoxy.

Hello friends. Not much news of my corner. I fed the penguins every other day and they got fat. Brought a bundle of carrots to the snow leopard and she was happy munching them away. Tried to polish some yellyfish but they escaped. Played with the hedgehogs and gave some of the armadillos a good long scratch. I`ve heard the one legged pirate talking to the leprechaun in the tank but didn`t understand what they were talking about.
Lately I found a little woolen heart that was knitted with red yarn but I think it wasn`t the woole spider ( if she exists ).
The heart reminds me of my friends here in the CDR. Promised to @Ray--Opo I`ve sung a song for you. A song that might give you hope, trust and a little bit joy in these hard times we are going through. I choose this special song because I know that this songs means a lot for many people in America. Hopefully my version is not too bad and you can enjoy it.
Wishing you all the best wishes I have, good vibrations and prayers that we all survive the virus and the scary time we`re living in.

Life gives you lemons just make lemonade! No tennis nets can’t stop the wife and I. Added a picture of why and how dogs and tortoises should be kept separate! My chow is a stubborn girl!

Tomorrow I will have had Arrow for 1 year!!! He's a little miracle fish. Since March he's been having his problem with the fin rot AGAIN. After I put him through the treatment AGAIN he was so bad off I had to blow fish flakes for him across his water. But this time it totally worked. I can see such a difference. He's swimming close to what he did the day I brought him home. He's such a cute friendly little guy. Waving hello and hoping I'll feed him.

Thank you Sabine! This is one of my very favorites... my children used to always asked me to sing to them if they were restless.. sometimes my son still does. The top picks are Amazing grace and Daddy’s Hands.

Beautiful!
