This was last Thursday, March 7, 2024, during my 3-day trip to Poughkeepsie, New York.
It was WINDY. Blowing a GAIL. Howling. But, I wasn’t sure whether I would have another chance. So, I had to give it a try.
I was HOPING to just walk across the ‘Walkway over the Hudson‘. But, that looked closed and I assumed it was. I was WRONG. So, I ended up walking that too. SMILE.
Check it out. You will enjoy it.

One of the ABSOLUTE JOYS of getting OLD is that I have discovered the GIFT of SILENCE.
I have learnt that is best NOT to say ANYTHING. Keep your thoughts to yourself. Don’t blurt out thinks. Don’t feel obliged to talk.
SILENCE.
There is immense power and beauty in SILENCE.
In my old age I keep my mouth shut. I learnt this with AGE.
I hope YOU gain this GIFT TOO.

It seems crazy that we are having so much trouble landing supplies in Gaza, by sea.
We are talking 60 days to get a temporary harbor built.
COME ON. COME ON.
We cracked so much of such landing logistics over 70-years ago for the momentous, historic D-Day landings in Normandy. We used shallow-draft landing crafts and these ‘Mulberry Harbours‘. We must have some of these around.
I just don’t buy that it will take us this long. This is 70-years on from D-Day. Our technology is supposed to be that much more advanced.
I just want you to think about.
