    I snapped this pic by the negative edge pool in Cozumel a few years ago when we were there on a dive trip.

    This guy and his boxers were at one of the Phoenix area "Bikers for Boxers" fund raisers that Mr. Sandi and I did a few years ago. (Can you tell I'm going through old photos? COVID era amusement). Anyway, he's on a custom trike adapted for his disability as well as to bring his two boxers along for the ride!

    :heart: BoxerLuv Boxer Rescue did a fund raiser--Bikers for Boxers--for six years. Until their lawyers put the kibosh on it because of liability. :mad: It was an awesome event--coffee and breakfast meetup for registration, a "poker run" through the Phoenix metro area, all followed by lunch and live music with a silent and a live auction. At each venue throughout the day there were boxers hanging out with BoxerLuv volunteers hoping for a new home or a foster family. :) Mr. Sandi and I would ride up from Tucson for the event then stay overnight at some nice little Phoenix hotel and ride home the next day.

    Rhymes

    I’ve been told me poems should rhyme,
    And most o’ me poems dun’t!
    It’s not like I’m committing a crime,
    It just I’m an ignorant fool!

    Still looking through photos in my iPhoto collection. I took these while visiting my little brother and his family in Minnesota at the family farm a couple of summers ago.

    IMG_1462.jpeg

    And the pic below is a close up of one of those purple blooms in the foreground of that photo.

    I took this with my old SE iPhone. Smartphones are really computers and cameras these days.

    These pictures are of my daughter
    I tell her she needs to grow her hair long and keep it natural or she won't get a job
    I tell her to not get so many piercings
    I tell her to do an academic college course

    She ignores me

    She does what the hell she wants without giving a damn about other people's opinion
    She is getting a tattoo for her birthday
    She completed a college course on Urban Fusion Art with distinction
    She has enjoyed life ten times more than me

    I am jealous of my daughter and think she is awesome

    A great quote to remember:

    "When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how muchhe had learned in seven years."

    Mark Twain.
