Well we finally got a bit of snow. Yesterday we got 1/2" of ice and then by the evening it changed over to snow. We ended up with about 3". I took my camera for a walk around our property this morning. I got a few nice shots :). Thanks for taking a look!

Schooner America 2.0 - Key West Harbor

Key West, Florida - Florida Keys - 3/23/22

SUNSET - Sunset Sail the Harbor - Spring '22

History: Designed and built by Scarano Boat Inc. in Albany, N.Y., the America 2.0 had big shoes to fill. Its 1995 predecessor, the 139-foot America (now berthed in Santa Barbara) won the hearts and minds of many islanders on and off the docks. That ship replicated the original America, a 101-foot sailing vessel that won an 1851 race against 15 yachts of the Royal Yacht Squadron in what would become known forever as the "America's Cup" in honor of that ship. The 1851 original America ended up a blockade-runner for the Confederacy and after the Yankees seized her, became a blockade-buster for the federals. She remained government property until falling victim to a shed collapse in 1945, and with the shed was scrapped and burned. A 170 year history with two replicas built.

 

America 2.0 (105 feet) replaced the 1995 replica schooner America (139 feet). The '95 replica is now berthed in Santa Barbara, California

 

The America 2.0, the Adirondack III, the Western Union, the Appledore and many other tall ships are credited with helping

to keep Key West's maritime traditions alive for years to come

Kennebunkport, ME Famed boathouse surrounded in reeds

This capture reminded me of the song:

 

LEAN ON ME

 

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain

We all have sorrow

But if we are wise

We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

Till I'm gonna need

Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride

If I have things you need to borrow

For no one can fill those of your needs

That you don't let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

Till I'm gonna need

Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear

That you can't carry

I'm right up the road

I'll share your load

If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand

We all need somebody to lean on

I just might have a problem that you'd understand

We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

Till I'm gonna need

Somebody to lean on

Lean on me...

Great Horned Owl love

Went to Hamburg this weekend to visit my little brother. A few shots will follow...

ODC-Lean

 

These two got into quite a battle over the peanuts this morning. When the one on the platform turned around the other leaned left and got out of the way. Then, a Robin showed up and chased the both of them away.

I was really aiming for this to be like you are leaning back, and looking at the huge sky.

Lean to and relax. It's a beautiful day...

This is a nymph, not yet fully mature.

 

Lyramorpha rosea is a true bug with sucking and piercing mouth parts, endemic to this country, in the east.

 

They generally feed upon plants belonging to the orders Rosales and Sapindales one of which is lychee, giving the common name of lychee stink bug.

 

When released, the defensive chemicals of certain species can cause significant damage if they come into contact with human skin.

If you just call me (call me)

If you need a friend (call me) call me uh huh (call me) if you need a friend (call me)

If you ever need a friend (call me)

Call me (call me) call me (call me) call me

(Call me) call me (call me) if you need a friend

(Call me) call me (call me) call me (call me) call me (call me) call me (call me)

Lean, on me, Ill be there, whenever you need

someone, to share, in every prayer,

in every dream, you've left somewhere,

till tomorrow, will be just like it was when we were young,

cause to-nite I'm gonna take you where

I've never taken you before

 

Lean on me, I'm everywhere, wherever you look,

I'll be, forever yours, The northern lights,

The Southern cross, I'll give to you till tomorrow,

will be just like it was when we were young,

cause to-nite I'm gonna take you were I've

never taken you , before

 

If your alone you'll know where you can find me,

you no there's no escape when you are on your own,

and if your worried and you can see the world slip through your fingers,

I'll reach out for you in my heart,

there's no more dancing in the dark,

 

youre not alone , tomorrow,

will be just like it was when we were young,

cause to-nite I'm gonna take you were

I've never taken you before,

 

will be just like it was when we were young,

 

to-nite I'm gonna take you where I've never taken you before,

 

will be just like it was when we were young.

  

moody blues - lean on me

  

"In solitude the mind gains strength and learns to lean upon itself"

I know I can always lean on you....

Sometimes in our lives

We all have pain, we all have sorrow

But if we are wise

We know that there's always tomorrow

 

Lean on me when you're not strong

And I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long

'Til I'm gonna need somebody to lean on"...

Flanders is a cyclist's paradise with many beautiful routes along the canals and rivers. Besides bicycles, you also see recumbent tricycles.

 

A recumbent tricycle is a solution that helps the rider lean back in a reclined position, distributing the weight over a wider area. This makes the ride much more comfortable and reduces strain and pressure on your back, shoulders, neck and wrists.

A friend knows the song in my heart and sings it to me when my memory fails. ~Donna Roberts
