Traveling Achievements



Hi G-Fans!
I have been wanting to include this whale picture for awhile now and never seem to get to it.  So, I am doing it tonight.  I don't even have much I want to say about it.  I just like it.  You know, whales are way bigger than bison or buffalo or hippopotami.... way bigger.  They weigh tons.  Their bodies would crush themselves if they were on land.... the weight would make it impossible for their guts to not get squeezed.  Did you every see the Star Trek movie when Spock took one for the team (as they say) and it was about whales having to be saved from extinction.  They had to travel back to earth to rescue the whales because there was a space probe with whale songs on it.... I digress.... I like the picture.  Not so much for the guy being in it, as far as I am concerned he could be whited out.  I just like looking at the whale.  I think I would like whales.  I think I wouldn't like dolphins.  They are all cetaceans.  Did you know that?  The concierge tells me things like that.  There are toothed whales and baleen whales.  I think I would be happier meeting a baleen whale.  The toothed whales would be scarier.  Ok, enough about whales.
Did you know that I only like driving on roads at 40 - 45 mph?  Anything faster and I turn into a whiner.  It hurts my ears.  I started not enjoying high speed travel around 8-9 months old.  It started on a trip to Fitchburg.  What an awful drive.  It poured rain so the noise from that was distressing enough, but the speed made it worse.  Now, I had already driven to NY a month or two earlier.  I kind of enjoyed that.  Especially staying at the hotel.  Very cool.  I liked being the center of the concierge's universe.... those were the days, I can tell you!
I would prance around those rings for the judges like I owned the place (except in Fitchburg and NY..... NY was too small and waaaay too crowded.  It freaked me out and the dogs who won.... I was never impressed.....!  Fitchburg, I was just a drooling miserable mess.)  I pranced many times in Springfield and Wrentham and some other locations..  But, I especially loved Boston. Boston is my favorite.  I did my best work there!  My career started and ended in Boston.
I kicked some doggie butt, I did!



So,  I am officially retired.  I haven't done any school work in some time either, but I always enjoyed the classes we went to, maybe we should pick that back up, I will have to talk to the concierge about that.....
So, may you shine with pizazz and your day kick butt!
TTFN!
