January 1, 2006

Sea-farers in many regions of the world consider the siting of a dolphin as a sign of good luck.
That forelore goes back to the Ancient Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, and Sumerians.
The dolphin is extremely intelligent and is well-known as a friend to humans, particularly humans who take to the sea.

Today, the first day of 2006, two dolphins visited our canal.
Jill and I took this as a sign of good fortune and maybe the dolphins' way of inviting us out to play in their world.

A Very HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL.

They are just checking to find out what is taking you so long. They know that you have your shopping done.
