Pismo Beach


I love this picture. It was taken in Pismo Beach California before I was born when my dad was still in the army airforce. My brother was one year and a day older than my sister. Notice the cuffs on the jeans..he had it goin' on didn't he? On Feb. 22nd 1968 a drunk driver killed my brother while he was driving to play in a church basketball game. His wife was 7 months pregnant with his first child. I miss him.

Geez, I am sorry about your brother. I was just going to come on and say, "congratulations, we're both pisces", but Feb 22 is my b-day, 1966. I'd lost an uncle, when he was just pitching 50, and he was buried on that day. So, I think I'll make mine the 21st.

You haven't abandoned Stewie and Dougy. Again, it's much better to see you, my dear. I always enjoy your comments on TBWHM. You're often insightful, as I think I've mentioned before, and insight is something to be appreciated.

many thanks for popping in to say hello.

Denise,
I came to your blog, to give my sympathy on the passing of your Step-Mom. Then, I read further.
I am sorry about the loss of your brother. Devastating.
It is good to bring back some memories. I would love to hear stories about him, if you ever want to share, I will listen!

Many fond regards,
Sue
