A November to Remember





















Well, we are one week into November and it has been a very pleasant month so far. On November 1, I had the pleasure of travelling to New Jersey to meet a wonderful friendly Norwegian who has been my online friend for many years. Judy, who I also met online but who lives nearby went with me to Perth-Amboy. In addition to meeting Barbie, the Norwegian wonder, we met her friend, Linda who travelled with her.
Today, after an awesome message in church, I headed over to the Baltimore Museum of Art to meet my friend Beth. We went to the Matisse exhibit and then to brunch at Gertrude's. It was such a gorgeous day that I got there early and was able to stroll around the Hopkins campus. After brunch, I worked off some of the food by walking thorugh the sculpture garden.

She reported about how beneficial it was and I took that as a confirmation that this was the time for me. September 1 sneaked up on me and I had some commitments for posting some prayer requests, but once that was done, I uninstalled Facebook (my primary Social Media) form my phone. I can pretty well ignore Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn and the like but Facebook is my constant itch that I have to keep scratching.

I also realize the other downside of social media for me and that's all the political vitriol.  As much as I don't get sucked into it, as much as I scroll past...

Just a few more memories

There were a few photos that I didn't post on the entry about our trip to Boca Raton.  I'm sure I have a bunch more in various places. I figure we gained 7 pounds, 700 friends, 7,000 memories and 7,000,000 photographs. Video from Awards Night

Baseball Thoughts on a Winter Day

I can't stop thinking about baseball. I'm happy for the moment (winter and all) but it would be so nice if it were a hot August night and we were watching the O's at Camden Yards. So I made this video today. It's some O's game footage from personal photography, misc. photos (amateur baseball players), and scans of much of my Orioles memorabilia from the early eighties. I hope you enjoy it.
