Taking a little cruise

A picture of our ship the Liberty of the Seas with Royal Caribbean.  Son, Roy called with a deal too good to pass up on so last minute we booked a cruise from Galveston, TX to Roatan, Honduras, Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico.  3 days at sea with the 3 ports.. Roy and Jaylee joined us so that was great. We have now experienced 5 different cruise lines.  It is always fun meeting new folks and chatting it up.  No afternoon high tea on this cruise but we did meet some very nice folks that we kept seeing here and there.  Entertainment was good and the food was good.  One thing different on this cruise from others is assigned seating.  We have had assigned time before but not actual seating; so this time we had assigned seats and the same waiters every evening.  Wanted to pack them up and bring them home with us.  What fun.  Carlos and Wontana were the greatest guys.  Always there with beautiful smiles and anticipating your every wish.  These people really know what service is meant to be.  

Little Jaylee had a wonderful time and loved the ship.  They took off and did a few other side trips at the stops too.  Always in the water, snorkeling or whatever.  We older folks stuck to sightseeing and shopping. Participating in activities on the ship.  Worried a little about the weather but it was fine.  A little rain to start the trip and then it was over and sunny, humid and not stifling so that was good.

Hingham, MA

Before leaving Hingham I finally was able to get a picture of this sign.  Massachusetts has one for each of their towns and it's such a kick to drive from one town to another and see this sign with date of settlement started.  Hard to get pictures because you don't know where the town line begins and there is no place to pull over for a quick stop and picture.  It's a bummer. On this one I was lucky enough after a month to be driving towards sign and 1st at stoplight with camera next to me. ha!  All these towns are so historic and have some wonderful history.  Too bad so many have been neglected.  Roads are terrible in most places and some are really run down while others thrive.. just like anywhere.  Just interesting observations. I was taken so much with Hingham because we lived there for 5 weeks and it was so CLEAN!  Loved the manicured yards and over 1800 historic homes and some still in residence of 13 generations!  That is something in this young country with so littl

We were surprised to have Earl III come down for a very short visit in Aug 2017 and took him up to Sedona and Taliesin West to see Frank Lloyd Wright's art school.  Very interesting tour and unique setting.  Of course homes are crowding in on this area now so not the seclusion that was intended when originally built.

It was a bit of a surprise to see this guy swoop down on this dove at our "quail block" the other day.  He sat there looking around long enough for us to get a few pictures then flew off to eat in private.  Thank goodness he took the dove with him instead of feasting right there.  They have to eat too; and all that but it is disturbing to come out and see a pile of feathers.  I can speak from past experience they do not leave anything behind besides feathers.. no skin or bones or waste...  Pretty isn't it...
