I watched 2 games yesterday and 2 today. One more to go tonight for me.  I can’t stay up until early morning for the late game. I also fit the Jays game in between periods. 
 

It’s been a sports lovers day in this house. 

This sounds like what @jmh2006 Jennifer and Dave refer to as a “sporgy” !

No surprise that My Cousin Vinny is my favorite comedy.

 

Classics Gone With The Wind, Sayonara, Terms of Endearment, It Happened One Night come to mind.  I know there are many others.

 

West Side Story has a special memory for me since it was my very first date at which time I received my very first grown up kiss.  

My favorite movies: Gone With The Wind,Metropolis and Z.

Empire State Building lit up on Red, White and Blue in celebration of NY Rangers win. 

 

At least that is what I like to think 😇20240421_201638.thumb.jpg.2332daff57b94152726f885261b03671.jpg

When the Rangers win the finals this year the streets of NYC should be painted in Rangers colors.😀

Let's not get to far ahead. It's just one  win. 15 more to go.

I predicted championships for the Rangers and Knicks in 2024 before their seasons started.

 

Not that i don't trust you Lenny but what does your grand dog think?

Good evening, our wonderful Vancouver roadtrip continues.  Yesterday, we visited The Raptors in Duncan and saw a Bald Eagle up close and in flight up close then a Barn Owl up close and in flight up close.  Very exciting for us Aussies.  2C8B9B54-04C5-4CDD-B693-0495497C08BB.thumb.jpeg.79b3f411613aa4e8905d5500b7963404.jpeg

Today, the excitement ramped up even further.  We dressed in four layers then headed to our Whale watch tour out of Nanaimo, where we were provided with a head to toe expedition suit and goggles.  Boarded our zodiac with 7 others + naturalist + crew/photographer and Captain.  Then spent the most wonderful 4 hours on the water.  After seeing stellar sea lions, harbour seals, humpback whale, we continued on all the way up near to Squamish in the water.  In this absolutely beautiful water, surrounded by snow capped mountains and we saw ORCAS!!!  We spent about an hour just drifting as this family of four orcas (mum & 3 sons - one only 1 year old) swam nearby.  Our Zodiac was the only one there.  We had this magic to ourselves.  I was almost in tears.A315B0FD-A8C0-402F-954A-8E639019565D.thumb.jpeg.3dc254328948b010368606289b93839b.jpeg

Took a solid 1hr high speed ride back to Nanaimo but it was so worth it and in all the gear, ours & theirs, we were toasty warm despite the cold temps on the open zodiac.

@aussielozzie18 your photos are just beautiful.

 

@h20skibum what a fun party for your granddaughter! HBD to her.

 

When it comes to keeping stuff from moves or inheritances, it seems there are two types of people.  Those that toss out most of it and those that can’t bear to part with anything - and they usually end up married to each

other 😂.  I’m not sentimental about big things like furniture, china sets, etc. In my mind, if I’m not going to use it, it’s just clutter.  Andy on the other hand would keep everything. It’s led to some interesting ‘discussions’ 😉😂.  

I’m of the group of tossers…but then a few years later I think of an item and wonder…darn it, why did I toss that?
