Poetography... a weekly inspiration. This week's theme is Success......
Formula for success: rise early, work hard, strike oil. by J. Paul Getty...
All I can say is, I rise early and work hard but never struck oil.. (grin)
Winter break was an experiment this year to see how both my wife and I handled an extended period with me presenting as Bree. While, I still don't have plans to transition it's something we both needed to get a handle on.
So, no 'turning it off' even for a holiday party at work friend's house. This is just the quick selfie I took to prove that everyone's dog loves me and for some reason instantly assumes I want their presence even though I am not a dog fan at all. Still had a fun afternoon with nice folks and great food!
One evening after work I wrapped Marlon's cube, this included everything from the desk itself, chair, all the items on his desk, and the exterior walls.
Of course, my boss was thrilled of my fine work..
Best work prank ever.

We only see them when they are on duty, but behind the scenes, they have daily routines and training that keeps them a valuable part of our city’s Police Force.”

The Honorable William Wall is the floating clubhouse of Manhattan Yacht Club. It is a 90 ft steel barge with an open-air upper deck. This Clubhouse is anchored in New York harbor just north of Ellis Island. This is the best view in the harbor for watching the sailboat races.
Manhattan Yacht Club opened the upper deck its clubhouse to the public beginning in 2012 (the downstairs Champagne Bar is still private to Members only).
Manhattan Sailing Club was established in 1987. The club re-introduced recreational sailing to the harbor after an absence of more than 60 years.
The club started at South Street Seaport with 12 J/24s on floating docks between the tall ships “Peking” and “Wavertree.”
During its first years of existence, the club experienced an economic roller-coaster. The inaugural year of 1987 brought a large growth in membership only to see the stock market crash in October, taking with it many individual and corporate members. The club rebounded and created and hosted the first International Yacht Club Challenge in 1988. By 1989, the club was again growing strong with the second International Yacht Club Challenge being co-hosted by Yacht Club de Monaco and sponsored by the World Link Club of Osaka, Japan.
But 1989 and 1990 were times of corporate restructuring followed by a recession. By 1991, the club stood at a low of 115 members. But these were committed members who worked to create a better organization, improve the fleet and continue the club programs.
In 1993, the club started expanding by establishing the Manhattan Sailing School in order to offer sailing instruction to new sailors. Until this point, the club had been primarily a racing organization. In 1994, the club moved from the Seaport to North Cove Yacht Harbor. North Cove offered the club a higher quality facility. Then membership began growing. From 115 in 1994, the club grew in the following years to 150, 200, 270 and in 1998, to 320.
In 1997, the club established its first clubhouse, a floating pontoon boat at North Cove called “Mermaid.” In 1999, the club organized a series of International Races on the Sandbaggers, Bull & Bear.
In 2001, the club was substantially impacted by the tragic events of 9/11. During this time, club members rallied and subscribed to clubhouse bonds to lay the keel for our first significant clubhouse, the Honorable William Wall. The years of 2002-2003 were rebuilding in lower Manhattan and at the sailing club. In 2004, our clubhouse in the harbor opened for business.
In 2005, Commodore Michael Fortenbaugh and our Patron Dennis Conner won the management of North Cove marina which was then renamed “Dennis Conner’s North Cove.” In 2006, the club docks were replaced with wider docks which conformed to the graceful curve at North Cove. The number of club boats at North Cove was increased to 24. In 2006, the club acquired “Admiral’s Launch,” improving transportation to and from the harbor clubhouse.
For the club’s 20th anniversary in 2007, a group of visionary members got together to form a 12 Metre Syndicate and purchased “America II” as the new flagship of the club.
By 2009, club membership had grown to 800. Then the financial crisis impacted the club as well as all Lower Manhattan organizations. Membership dropped to 650. Starting in 2010, membership rebounded to 740 and in 2011, grew to 820.
2012 was the club’s Silver Jubilee season. Membership set a new record at 900 people and the club ended the season with the acquisition of “Arabella” which will serve as a new clubhouse at North Cove.

This is my 4' aluminum tree I brought into work to chip in for my share of the decorating. I found the ornaments at the Brass Armadillo antique store in Des Moines.
All i have to color correct photos with at work is Irfanview. I have to say that for FREE it is capable of doing most of what I need other than perhaps a good size-down alrorithm.
