Good Morning!
12345
Just on for a little while this morning and then I'm out for a bit, going to the gym and groceries. Weather is supposed to be warm here in Ontario this weekend!
Here is a night diver from last night (or the lights anyway!).

Morning, Eileen. Yep, it's off to Loewe's for an early morning stockup on things to keep me busy this weekend.

Are you sure that's a night diver? Looks more like and an Ocyropsis crystalina to me. :-)

The mice may not be stirring on Bonaire, but everything else is.

I'm getting some small things done before I go out (computer nearby of course ;)). There were some lights on the beach (people walking probably) and it matched up with that pic. You never know, aliens visiting :-)!

Bill. I thought I better look it up after that post. LOL Annie B.

Ides of March Day

Are the Ides of March unlucky? Well, they were for Julius Ceasar when he got to the steps of the Senate. But... that's Shakespeare. The word "ides" simply means middle, so we can have the Ides of May, the Ides of July, or even the Ides of Chocolate Pudding. There's nothing unlucky about it - unless you're Ceasar. In that case, watch your back. anything

Well, guess I was too late on the website Rusty, appears that you have already found it... But you have certainly found a ship...Reckon its a spy ship(maybe a submarine) or just a freighter or tanker...With a tower that high, it could be a high class fishing boat.. Bet that one would be expensive. gif UB

wow What a gorgeous sunset last night! I thank you all for sharing it with me. We made tacos and watched a couple weird movies, Eye of the Beholder and Arlington Road. I think that Rod Serling must have secretly produced them both.

flasher Thanks for all the help with the Irish flasher everybody. It's a shame when a site goes down and the content is lost forever.
