Bon Voyage Charlie!

Sailing Date is nigh upon us! So very excited. We leave BWI-Thurgood Marshall Airport at zero dark thirty Easter Sunday. Layover at O'Hare. Hmmm . . . been there, done that. Then on to San Diego and board the Celebrity Infinity. Set sail Easter evening. Fourteen nights. Six ports. Sigh. I'll keep you posted.

The Swing

by Robert Louis Stevenson

How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall,
Till I can see so wide,
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside—

Till I look down on the garden green,
Down on the roof so brown—
Up in the air I go flying again,
Up in the air and down!
