Catch up

I caught up with an old friend today. A very old friend from my childhood. I found some shots of a couple of our friends who are no longer with us. He was the best man at one of their weddings. And I had a shot of him and John in their suits. And a few more of us at The Who concert back in 2002 which I made prints of for him. I think we first saw that band together in 1970.

He was at the one where The Who and Led Zeppelin played together at Merriweather Post Pavilion in 1969.

We promised to get together for a few Maryland basketball games this year and I’m sure we will follow through with that.


Here is another catch. We have had a few good meals here at this spot in Fenwick Island Deleware called Catch 54.

I tried to catch my wind today. And I did a good job of it out in the convertible and working in the yard. Tonight I catch up on sleep.


Random Thoughts of the Day

  • Salad for dinner may be smart but it isn’t satisfying.
  • There is an unusual chill in the air outside tonight.
  • It’s remarkable how easy it is to fall into old habits.
  • I got some good Maryland sweet corn. I think I’ll try a test tomorrow on how I like it best on the grill. One straight on the grate. One wrapped in foil and one cooked in the husk.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
