Another great photo Beach. The older I get, the more I remember things the way they used to be. I guess that's what happens when the rigors of life and time meet the desire to remain young and vigorous. Those were the days? Nah, these are the days. That's why we live life moment by moment. The moments in time I see in your work has been fantasic. Beauty and humor and the sense of sharing something with a friend. Congratulations on 2000, here's a toast for 2000 more. Cheers buddy.

Now the beauty of the thing when childher plays is
The terrible wonderful length the days is.
Up you jumps, and out in the sun,
And you fancy the day will never be done ;
And you're chasin' the bumbees huminin' so cross
In the hot sweet air among the goss,
Or gath'rin' blue-bells, or lookin' for eggs,
Or peltin' the ducks with their yalla legs,
Or a climbin' and nearly breakin' your skulls,
Or a shoutin' for divilment after the gulls,
Or a thinkin' of nothin', but down at the tide
Singin' out for the happy you feel inside.
That's the way with the kids, you know,
And the years do come and the years do go,
And when you look back it's all like a puff,
Happy and over and short enough.


from Betsy Lee - T.E.Brown.

Recent days I feel a lot like that poor old boat. A great shot Beach and congrats on the 2000!

2000 in five months, I haven't got that many in twenty! Must try harder!

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Well done buddy !!

Congratulations on 2000 posts Beach, it couldn`t have been anything other than a boat. Looks like you were on your knees again for this picture, the things you do for your art. I remember when I could kneel and get up again without any groans, those were the days my friend.
