Phoenix Phun Phor Phry Phamily, Part II

Ok, boys, now that we have the rules out of the way, there are lots of fun (phun) things that move at Phoenix X. Of course, there are boats, but the Pensacola Naval Air Station where Uncle Kyle used to train is very close---jets flew by but were too fast for me to get my camera, but here are some helicopters---if they have orange on them they are "trainers."
There are lots of other planes---Naval training plains, sight-seeing planes and planes that pull banners that advertise "All You Can Eat Fish at the Shrimp Basket"
There are also Para-sailors being pulled by boats.
Nearby is the Flora-bama Bar with all sorts of interesting things including lots of motorcycles!
And a bus?
This was fun---we watched this tractor "groom" the sand today.

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
