Cucco you are in one of the best places for Florida beaching! Naples is gorgeous, and Sanibel Island is pretty awesome too. I grew up in the FL panhandle and spent every summer in my youth at St. George island, Panama City & Ft. Walton Beach. Also lived in Sarasota/Bradenton area for 5 years and spent every weekend on the beach year-around. The Gulf beaches are truly beautiful, although the water's a bit like bath water in the summer - it never really gets cold. Compare that to the Pacific ocean which never warms!

Cucco with your love for animals you should look into doing volunteer work with the wildlife rescue group on Sanibel Island. They rely heavily on volunteers to help them out and they do noble work. It's called CROW - Center for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife. Most of their volunteers pick up rescued wildlife in town & drive the critters out to the island, so that may not be something you can do. But they may be able to utilize your business experience in some way!

That's what I am told. :) Actually, I did go to Naples and Sanibel beaches around 30 years ago, when I came here to visit.

Thanks for the tip on the rescue group. I'll check them out. I have not been very active with volunteering lately, but they may be in need of some donations. I love critters! :)

Consider this as, kinda, a PSA:

I have a holistic internist. Being holistic, she does not suggest I get immunizations. If I could turn back time.....

I would ignore her, and get a shingles immunization! You do not want shingles! The past few months, have been the most painful and uncomfortable of my life. Every time I start realizing some relief, it starts all over. If you are a bit older, like me, you might want discuss the subject with your physician.

Just sayin..... :)

Cucco, I've heard shingles is so very painful.. I hope you get some relief very soon.

Thanks all! Indeed it is. I got a crazy 'internal' version. I didn't even know there was such a thing. Any movement, including breathing, that results in any movement of my rib area is excruciating. Several times now, it has resulted in my lungs filling with fluid. Drowning sucks! :)

When I hear about shingles, in my mind come the T cells and of course the thymus, the seat of soul as it was referred by older civilisations and a herb with the same name, the thyme, a close relative of oregano and savory. While I don't like so much mint itself, I love these three culinary herbs of the mint family, I use them daily, in soups, salads, and in lesser quantities rosemary. I call them heart healers, just to smell them you feel better! In southern Hellas, wild savory can be found in sandy beaches and the combination of sea smell and savory's flavour during summer walks is a divine experience. If these herbs were movements, I would called them tai chi. Below is an interesting link about tai chi and shingles :)

Every day, I am reminded that I am old. My only 'comfortable' ringtone, is the one that imitates an old land-line phone. :)

I have the classic old phone ring tone on my my cellphone. It just feels the most natural to me too.

Haha, that's what I use as my main ringtone, and no, I don't feel "old" yet. My friends and work associates have separate ringtones and the ringtone for my mom is an old blaring car horn.
