"Up, up and away..."

While eating a monstrous breakfast burrito at Mi Madres on a crisp, sunny morning in Austin Texas the radio started playing...."Would you like a ride in my beautiful, my beautiful balloon. Up, up and away in my beautiful, my beautiful balloon."

I couldn't help but remember our magnificent days traveling from job to job in the ole' green Dodge singing our hearts out! Precious memories. Next time we are all together let's go find a grassy knoll and do a little cloud gazing. Hopefully our imaginations will unlock the myriads of funny shapes in the clouds we once saw a few decades ago. Who know we might even see a hot air balloon!

Take a ride today,
Cyrus

Northwest Paradise or Warm Sunny Paradise

Recently quoted by Sky Duck Pine:

"Oh, finally its spring time, oh, what's that, is that a flower, wow, there's a flower blooming, how wonderful, a single flower, isn't that so precious! It's been five months since I've seen any signs of nature's new life. Oh these seasons are so wonderful, its so great to wait so many long days and months just to see a flower bloom outside. Now I know how to appreciate a flower, oh majestic Northwest, you've taught me a great lesson: "I hide inside closed doors most of the year, so I can appreciate a beautiful flower blooming in the spring. Now I know the meaning of seasons"

Oh what fun, windy, rainy, and cold for a long time. Hey folks in the Great Northwest, have another nice year.

The sarcasm is so thick I could butter my toast with it. Well Sky Duck Pine...mister "tuck your tail and run for the Northwest as soon as it starts warming up in Texas," as soon as you have braved your first summer down here we'll talk. Until then keep smiling up at the rain!
