Days of Thunder


Summer is only 10 days away, my favorite time of year.  There is nothing more divine than looking outside and seeing the lovely green of trees painting the landscape.  Flowers are blooming and the air is warm, fresh and clean.  The world is alive, birds chirping, squirrels scampering about, bees buzzing on their quest for pollen.  I live for this time of year. It is a balmy 80 degrees today. I am playing tennis this evening. It doesn't get any better than that for me.  Summer is Magic.



                                                                           Magic


                                            A dreaded sunny day, with a head full of dread

With good comes bad, as always.  I am so sad about the passing of Muhammad Ali.  He was not only the greatest boxer of all time, he was an amazing person for his stands on civil rights, peace and his work for charity.  He was truly "The Greatest".


                                                                     The Greatest

Also, I found out today one of the true greats of hockey died.  The superb Gordie Howe died at 88.  He was Mr. Hockey in Canada.  He was the greatest player in hockey before Gretzky and Lemieux.  As a hockey player, I mourn the death of one of the greats of the game I play.
