"Here, There and Everywhere"

 So not much has been happening lately. I have been staying here at home a lot, and visiting the Zoo up there on Wickham Road. I have been planning to visit everywhere, but I don't think I have enough time left. Here are a few photos from my here, there and everywhere.

Here

I have continued collecting Life is Good tee-shirts. Here is one of my latest purchases. I drink Guinness quite often. It must have been all the Saint Patrick Day pageants when I was at Saint Mary's Catholic school in Middlebury. A little bit of Irish in me. Remember Father Mahoney?

A recent photo I took in my back yard, here at home. Zebra Longwing on the Firebush.

Another Life is Good tee-shirt. After retiring, my eyes have gotten better and I no longer have a prescription for glasses. I guess NOT being on a computer 8 or more hours a day is good. So I changed over to these glasses instead...

Another Life is Good tee-shirt...

I think I see a theme...

This one is one of my favorites. When Tom and I were at the Margaritaville in the Cayman Islands, the bartender said as I sat at the bar, "it's empty!" So I ordered another.

There

I have been visiting Brevard Zoo a lot, my local there. There you can see macaws, both scratching their heads at the same time...

You can see emus with Kangaroos.

You can see there a Babirusa with a local squirrel. They seemed to know each other.

There can be collisions there. I think the ostrich knocked the dromedary down.


Just like Aquarius...the Giraffe is in the sitting house, and the ostrich is aligned with the Dromedary...Peace will guide the planets.

There are three new Galapagos tortoises cohabiting  with the kangaroos and emus. I shared some more photos of them on Facebook. I still think it looks like ET.

Everywhere

A few of the heres and theres that make up everywhere.

The new Main entrance to PSFB is almost ready to open. I took the shot while sitting at the light on A1A, It is just North of the current Main entrance.

I went back to Nomad's Canteen in Eau Gallie. It has a California Surfer theme.


One of my favorite stops to eat is Frigates. I ordered the Seminole Roll on this visit.



Everywhere includes Vermont. I grabbed this shot from Facebook of my nephew Izzy working the Tunbridge World's Fair. He is in one of his reenactment costumes, his boys are not...

Another grab from Facebook, this one is all the way in Sweden where my friend (and past co-worker) Sheri is living with her Swedish husband and their two kids. She is celebrating turning 50 ar. I really want to visit Sweden, my high school prom date Gunilla is from there.

About Title

"Here, There and Everywhere" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1966 album Revolver. A love ballad, it was written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon–McCartney. McCartney includes it among his personal favourites of the songs he has written. In 2000, Mojo ranked it 4th in the magazine's list of the greatest songs of all time.

Photo Memory - BJ with others

Image
As I continue to scan in all the photos I have collected over the years, I have continually modified the way I am trying to organize the photos. I have created groups by individuals, and of course central to that are photos of me. I have shared some of the single photos of me on Facebook, and I would like to share here a few of photos of me with others. The first photo is me, not even four months old, being held by my Grandmother, Helen Rheaume Shackett. I know the photo was taking at our Weybridge Street house in Middlebury by the banister behind us. The stairs are steep in the Provoncha house, and many a drunk fell down those stairs into the cactus my mom kept at the bottom. Tom moved the bathroom from the second floor to the first when he purchased the house, so now only those spending the night get to go up those stairs. BJ with Grandma Shackett The next photo is when I turned one in the summer of 1958. I lived at the Weybridge St house all my life through high school. I am

"All You Need Is Love"

Weddings! All you need is Love !  The other night I had a weird dream about attending a wedding. When I woke, I started thinking about the weddings I have attended in my life. I was not sure if I could remember them all. I know the list is long and I decided to al least get a record of the ones I have pictures from. Sometimes I was just an onlooker, and there were times I was lucky to be part of the wedding party. In actuality, I always participate in the wedding party! Here are some wedding photos from my archive. Family I did not attend this wedding. It was November 24 in 1946, my mom Stella united with my dad Harold at Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Middlebury Vermont. Although I was not there in body, you could say my whole future depended upon this moment. My oldest sister Patsy got married out West and none of the family attended. Pat and Brent ended up moving to Hawaii where my niece Lori was born. Tom married Robin, but it was a very small gathering. Just after I graduated

"I Am the Walrus"

 I use to be a Tiger and now I am the Walrus . Just recently I found out that my friend Randy Quesnel had passed away. Although it happened back in March, I just found out on Facebook. I had not kept in touch with Randy but I did have some fond memories of him. One connection we had was playing football together at MUHS. My Senior year, Randy was a Junior. I knew I had a photo of him but all I could find was this scan from the Addison Independent. Tigers of the Week ! This was 1974, 50 years ago. That is Randy on the left, and my classmate Bob Shaw on the right. Randy played fullback but he also spent time as defensive end. I was the defensive halfback on the same side of the field and Coach Wagner had a verbal call for me to let the DE know I was rushing and the DE had to contain. Whenever I made the call, Randy would give me a look, he liked to rush the backfield and I was messing him up. Of course, he knows the call was from either Hubie or Coach Chuck Martin or Coach K. But he was
