Shawn is a ranked nine-ball player in both Canada and the USA – winning his way to Las Vegas numerous times.

Troy and his partner – Andrea visited us this past summer.

Until four years ago – Troy built houses from the ground up – doing it all – then he joined Shawn and runs the installation side of the energy auditing business contracting out to the state in insulation for the elderly.

Papa’s World – “My fit bit isn’t recording my steps” !

For the last 4 or 5 years – I have heard this over and over !

Notice fit bit on wrist

Sherry tells me this all the time – my fit bit records differently than hers !

Even though we walk the same distance !

So – I swapped – I wore hers -she wore mine !

And she is right – I still recorded more steps !

Then she posted on face book asking if anyone knew WHY !!!!!

Well – you can imagine the response –

anything from she has longer legs – most likely true –

to I take more steps – untrue –

as we walked today and she was matching my stride –

and I still had plus 300 steps !

She is tall – I have her by a inch !

She has to swing her arms – I grabbed some books from the free trail library

I didn’t swing my arms carrying them – I still had more steps !

She has a much longer stride – there fore I take more steps !

PLEASE !!!!

So – how do you explain it ?

Some say calibrate the fit bit – she did –

still the same !

Now – like me –

when I walk by her computer –

( she tells me to stay away from it )

Something will happen –

It is just the way of my life !

So my theory –

IT SOMEHOW IS HER !!!!!

X FILES !!!

What I say

So – I tell her –

it is not how you got to the THREE PLUS MILES –

But the fact in the end –

it still is THREE PLUS MILES !!!!!

Now that goes over like a lead balloon –

But in the end – we both did the same distance –

And to be truthful

It just does not mean as much to me as it does to her –

sort of like my PHONE –

I only use it to talk to her or take pictures ! LOL

( by the way – it does the same things as my computer – it isn’t me )

So – today – she still thinks that I am not doing all those steps !

Of course – I just think –

” It isn’t me to question why – but for me to do or die “

So – I ask her first and adjust my steps according to what she says ! LOL

Papa’s World – Living life one day at a time!

Isn’t this the truth! As you get older – things become a little bit more demanding – but keeping active can slow these down!

Walking – that is my main source of exercise – and we have started playing Pickle Ball!

We try to walk 2 to 3 miles a day weather permitting – we do not walk in rain or strong winds.

We have been taking this supplement for SIXTEEN YEARS – and we have never missed a day!

We recommend this to other folks – the research sold us and the benefits to our bodies!

We do not have pets although our daughter and family have Marley – a golden poodle who is adorable.

Our other daughter and family have a Love Bird – our son-in-law is allergic to cats and dogs!

We live life to the plus one day at a time – enjoying everything we can in the autumn of our lives.

Life is a joy for us – family – friends and giving what we can.

Papa’s World – Pictures – Family and friends.

Introducing myself and my wife – Tom ( Papa) and Sherry – married over 40 years – from NWPA – in the Alleghany Mountains!

We have lived in Pa. N.Y. Va. S.C. and N.C.

Second marriage for both of us – combining two daughters ( hers ) and two sons ( mine) –

The two daughters live in NVA and the two sons live in NWPA.

Both retired from a major producer and importer of Ceramic tile

We both strive to be kind – generous – caring – loving – helpful and make a contribution to humankind.

We have had close friends for almost 40 years and some beyond that – here Buck and Cindy who live about 40 miles from us.

We were neighbors back in WNY and have continued to see each other through the years.

Now that we are within one hour of each other – we often times get together to golf – have dinner – or see theater shows in our area.

For SIXTEEN years Sherry has been a partner for the Juice Plus Company – she is a certified health coach –

and has had an internet business during all this time.

This has provided a stable extra income for our retirement for the past 10 years that she has been retired.

Family is very important to us – all have visited us in our new retirement home in N.C.

PAPA’S WORLD – RANDOM HUMOR – LAUGHS – and SMILES! HAVE A GREAT DAY!

Papa’s World – Walking the streets of BRAMBLETON VA.

Every morning – we try to walk between 2.25 miles and 3.10 miles.

This is one of the paths we take – along the streets of Brambleton Va.

GOOD MORNING

Our little town has grown in the thirteen years we have lived here.

Today – it still is building out – the third High School opens this September .

Walking the streets

This path is 2.16 miles long – and follows the sidewalks and streets .

Very little traffic – and if you stay on the shaded side – very comfortable.

The whole side of the street by water

Water in a man made stream runs along side the street –

waterfalls – ponds – and flowers and trees !

Beautiful flowers change out each season
One of multiple water falls
Collection ponds
Rocks placed for rapids

The area along here is all man made.

The walk is slightly uphill –

and you can if you wish –

take the path through the little park on the other side of the stream.

Flowers in the medium

The road has several places where flowers are planted in the medium.

The entrance to Brambleton on this side of the development
Brambleton entrance

The other entrance has a water fall twice as large as this one.

Beautiful colorful flowers

Sherry informed me – we are planting these nest year –

She says that each time we walk by them ! LOL

Hasn’t happened in thirteen years !

My two oldest grand daughters

My shirt for the day – taken 12 years ago -the picture that is –

Of Maddy and Ella – when they were 6 and 3 !

The street

Walking back home – we pass a large fishing pond.

Catch and release pond

Although I do not fish – this is a great spot for catch and release.

The ponds are all this way –

Meeting of old men

Each morning – around 7 AM. A quartet of older men –

Gather and sit and talk for a hour or more –

Below the rocks are more chairs –

Most of the day this is shaded.

Small park

Our walks each morning can be different –

Silence – greeting other walkers – bikers and runners.

Papa’s World – Random pictures – thoughts and memories.

Christmas decorations for 2022 in our home in Cameron Woods Community – OIB, N.C. Our second Christmas here in our new home!

I do not run because I thud – thud – jarring my whole body – so I walk – almost every day 2 to 3 miles – and strive for 10,000 steps.

The closest beach to our home is four miles and is Ocean Isle Beach – with a pier and this entrance is the Community Center!

At Crooked Hammock in Barefoot Landing, S.C with family when they visited after Christmas but before New Year’s Eve!

Long ago Pier picture of OIB – RANDOM PICTURES – THOUGHTS – and PICTURES – MY BLOG!

Papa’s World – SIXTEEN PLUS YEARS to healthy aging!

We choose after our reaching senior status – to do everything we could possibly do to age as healthy as we could manage to do.

We started watching what we ate – cutting out fast food – soda – milk ( for me) – reducing dairy – and drinking.

We had already years before quit smoking!

Now we started to walk – run every day – for me that was walking – I run really hard – thudding my steps and jarring my whole body!

Vegetables – fruit and some protein – reduce red meat considerably.

Eating grilled fish or baked chicken – drinking a lot of water every day!

We found though for us it was really hard to get the recommended servings each day of fruits and vegetables.

Sherry found a supplement of whole food in a capsule – all the nutrients retained for consumption and immediately go into the bloodstream!

Over 30 different fruits- vegetables and berries in six capsules each day!

And now – for sixteen years – I have not missed a day!

This is what I have taken for 16 years! I will be 74 years old on my next birthday as will Sherry!

We feel as though we have found our answer to aging healthy!

Several years ago we added a fourth bottle to our daily consumption – OMEGAS – not from fish oil – but ALGAE – from the JP company farm! NO MERCURY!

I also will have a nutritious bar – all good “STUFF” to have with the COMPLETE SHAKE I also have!

I prefer the DUTCH CHOCOLATE – with crushed ice – a cup of water and a cup of Almond or Soy milk!

Sometimes a teaspoon of peanut butter or half a banana!

It tastes like a WENDY’S FROSTY!

And to satisfy my sweet tooth – we buy the GUMMIES – in vegetables – fruits, and berries –

they do the sweet tooth thing for me and are all nutrient-based fruits – veggies, and berries!

Great for kids and those who have a tough time swallowing the capsules!

Papa’s World – just another day – be happy !

A GOOD DAY TO YOU ALL

Retirement can cause this –

“IT’S JUST ANOTHER DAY “

COFFEE

BUT – mine ALWAYS starts this way ” COFFEE ” !

Yes – that is me !

First thing I do is make that cup –

Usually with a flavored taste to it !

I AM FREE

My phone for the most part – stays in my pants pocket !

I mostly only use it for two things !

First one – ” TO ANSWER IT “

And that comes in a form of a text from my wife !

Second one – ” TO TAKE A PICTURE “

You see I really do not like my phone –

When it rings –

There is this happy – cheery voice –

THAT IS RECORDED !

Yes – you can !

And then that voice continues on with some nonsense –

I have learned to hit the turn off button rather quickly !

Last day of the week

To be honest though –

They all run together –

It use to be – “HURRY UP WEEKEND ” !

Now – it is “MAKE SURE I DO NOT FALL “

When trying to do this ! LOL

YEAH YOU KNOW

And as these days seem to all run together –

So does bed time –

The yawning starts around 8:00 PM.

Be honest now –

Then you start thinking –

What can I dream about to make me fall asleep ! LOL

Turn the AC a little bit colder

Warm blanket –

YEP – 9:00 PM. is the new MIDNIGHT !

Then you realize the weekend is gone –

Monday is here –

Unless you did SOMETHING over the weekend-

It all seems the same !

And even in retirement –

The most important thing you can remember –

“ONE DAY WE WILL DIE SNOOPY “

” YES – BUT EVERY OTHER DAY WE WILL LIVE “

THE AUTUMN OF OUR LIVES

Today is just another day –

Today – as in retirement –

Is a day in my life –

My hope is that each and every day –

I share a little part of it –

Papa’s World – Harper’s Ferry – Brewery – a little history.

GOOD MORNING

As the birthday celebration of my wife Sherry continued –

Hosted by our daughter Debby and her husband Mike –

We drove to Harper’s Ferry in W.V.

along with the three oldest grand daughters.

Sarah gazing at the river

We were going to hike a trail to the summit of a over look !

However – it was HOT !

Like 95 degrees HOT and very humid – no breeze.

Ella – Maddy – Debby and Sherry

We gathered before walking across the rail road trestle –

Knowing it was going to be a lot harder than we thought-

They ( the family ) had done this before –

in much cooler weather.

On the trail

After crossing across the river –

we hit the trail along side the remains of the old canal.

Along the old canal

This part was mostly flat – but in full Sun.

While this was hot – it was easy walking –

we walk three miles every day –

but stick to the shade as much as we can.

At the beginning of the climb

We started up the mountain – in the shade – but no breeze !

Climbing

We walk upward for a half hour –

Sweat – no air movement – we had climbed over a mile –

View from the rail road trestle

After a pause – checking our heart rates –

We – Sherry and myself decided

before heat stroke set in –

to turn around and walk the two plus miles back to the trestle.

It was just so hot and no air.

On the trestle – we watched dozens of tubers floating down the river.

Ella – Sherry and Maddy

It was the right choice –

even back in the town – it got hotter –

in the high 90’s !

We walked around and explored the streets –

having been here a couple times before –

we went to the train station to cool off in the AC.

Sherry and Sarah went to the wax museum

The Brewery

Looking for a place to have lunch – we decided to drive out of town –

and go up into the mountains to –

HARPER’S FERRY BREWERY –

Harper ‘s Ferry Brewery

This actually occupies the same area

as the rentals for the tube rides and rafters.

Buses take them down to the river

here they float down and through the rapids.

Hundreds of people stop on the big rocks in the middle of the river –

We could see them as we looked from the brewery.

Maddy – Ella – Sherry – Sarah and Debby

There were two food trucks – the regular one and a guest one –

From our area called FORD’S FISH SHACK –

a very popular place to eat – esp. sea food !

I counted over 30 taps for their beer in the brewery –

And we did a beer tasting flight of six of them

Debby – Ella – Taylor -Maddy – Sherry – Sarah and Mike

Then it was the trip back to the house at Lake Holiday –

Where Tammy – Marcus – Taylor – Cassidy and Bode –

drove back from their vacation in Maine –

to surprise Sherry !

Cassidy and Bode

The three oldest had made Swedish horses out of cement and tile for Sherry

As stepping stones in her flower beds

Having painted them and in different sizes according to their own age.

Blue – Maddy Orange – Sarah Red – Ella

They actually inlaid these with different tiles.


Lake Holiday

Today it will be back to the beach two at Lake Holiday –

where we can swim and cool off !

Beach Two

It has been a great birthday celebration

Family gathered

It is coming to a end

Harper’s Ferry – The Brewery – Lake Holiday

All organized by Debby & Mike

Papa’s World – Lunch at a historic eatery in Edenton,N.C.

View from the window in the Herring Canning and Packing factory in Edenton, N.C. right on the waterfront!

Completley renovated with pictures on the wall depicting the operation of the canning and fishing procedures.

Jim – Paul – Dottie – Janet – Sherry in one of the dining areas remodeled over from the Herring factory.

We drove here because Jim and Dottie’s lot was only a few miles away and this is the historic district of Edenton –

and just a stone’s throw away from the bay and a raised light-house.

The meal was very good – had hamburger and fries – drinks were good and they had flights of beer which Dottie and Sherry shared.

Flight of beer served on an old piece of driftwood and all the light fixtures hang from the ceiling in pieces of driftwood.

Thanks for reading Papa’s World – my site: livinglifedoingitmyway.blog fitztdf@aol.com

Good friends having lunch at Historic Eatery in Edenton, N.C. Good times – on the bay in Edenton.

Papa’s World – building a dream near Edenton – golf course and bay.

Our friends of years and years – bought this lot just outside Edenton, N.C. – at the far end is a canal and access to the bay.

On the far side of the bay – is the Outer Banks. The canal is 800 feet straight back.

Looking across the bay to the Outer Banks – this view is less than a half mile to their lot.

A dream coming true in a little over 1 1/2 years when Dottie retires and construction begins on their dream home.

Right across from their lot sits the number two hole – a par three! I see lots of sitting on the front porch watching the golfers trying to hit the green!

View back up the road to their building lot from the yard at the clubhouse – golfing with a view and boat access to the bay!

Dottie gazing out over the bay to the Outer Banks – her dream coming true – I envision walks here with chairs in the early evening!

Papa’s World – We attended a retirement party for our friend.

A cake and a drawing – almost 46 years working for the same company – the same that Sherry and I worked for!

Between the THREE of us – we had a total of 125 years and when you add in his brother – Paul – 158 years!

A bunch of balloons – and a room full of co-workers – on a very rainy night – a farewell to all those years – memories and priceless.

Now – when we play – he can join me at the senior tees! LOL It will be fun and the start of many years to come.

Happy retirement my friend – Jim Brown – and thanks for reading PAPA’S WORLD – livinglifedoingitmyway.blog

Papa’s World – Random thoughts and memories from the past!

Years ago we made a trip to Washinton, D.C. with a group of friends from our church – Community Lutheran Church in Sterling, Va. to see Les Miserables on stage.

What a performance and good times with friends. MEMORIES!

Papa’s World – The LITTLE one’s first cheer – CASSIDY

GOOD MORNING

She is nine years old –

She is a independent child

Full of life – always creative

She can melt your heart

But she also will ask ” WHY- WHAT – HOW- WHEN “

She is her own identity ” CASSIDY “

The small one of the twins.

The fighter !

Cassidy – the small one on the left
looking at her instructor
with her mentor the taller
one behind her

She went to Cheer leading school

and as part of that school

she and her classmates & mentors

got to cheer the first half

of the varsity

BRIAR WOODS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME

About to cheer – Cassidy

I had a hard time taking pictures and video’s

as she would disappear in a flash

behind the bigger kids and then emerge again

But I did get some pictures

Growing up
staying out of trouble
in a small NWPA
living simple
my bike and my friends
at the ball park
when street lights come on
head for home
She did well
listening to instructions
never letting her mentor
out of her sight
or touch

It was a bit chilly – and every time the varsity scored

all the cheerleaders hit the deck

and did push ups !

I do not think she knew she had to do this

and it was funny seeing the expression on her face

one push up for every single point

BOY – THE SCORE WAS 34 to 0 at halftime

OUR FAVOR !

Papa’s World – Happy times in North Carolina with friends.

The six of us have been friends for about forty-plus years. Living as neighbors to Cindy and Buck and Jim and Dottie grew up in the same little town in NWPA called Eldred in the Alleghany mountains as I did.

Jim – Sherry and I all worked for Dal-Tile – (American Olean Tile) in Olean, N.Y.

And of course, being and working in WNY – we all were Buffalo Bills fans – and we watch them whenever we can by going to

Buffalo Bills sports bars in our areas.

Cindy and Buck live 30 miles from us and we get together often to play a round of golf – have dinner and just enjoy our friendships.

Papa – Dottie – Cindy – Sherry – Buck and Jim – Dottie and Jim live in Va. Beach and in the coming years will build on a piece of property in Northern North Carolina.

They will be about three-plus hours from us when they retire.

Sherry – Cindy – Dottie – Forty-plus years of being friends. When we all get together – it comes down to Gals vs. Guys in a golf scramble.

The last time we gave them two strokes – they missed a four-foot putt on the last hole for the WIN!

So we tied 37 to 37!

Sherry and Cindy – both into walking miles and miles – I try to keep up!

Thanks for reading Papa’s World – livinglifedoingitmyway.blog

Playing golf at Magnolia Greens in Leland, N.C. where Buck and Cindy live. Living life one day at a time!

Sherry – Sunset Beach, N.C. PAPA’S WORLD – HAPPY TIMES in NORTH CAROLINA WITH FRIENDS!

Papa’s World – Elvis is in the house – Carolina Opera.

We purchased tickets way back in September of 2022! An ELVIS tribute – three generations progressing from the ’50s

to the late 70’s when he passed away.

Personally – I liked the 50’s music the best as that is when he changed Rock and Roll.

He was the KING – and everyone was following him – from country to rock and roll and R&B. Gospel –

you name it and he was what everyone was copying.

The first performer and the style Elvis had early in his career. This is when all the gyrations came out and all the ladies swooned!

This style is what I liked – as he got older – he was not as moving about as he was here.

ELVIS in the house – ’50s style.

Then came the service for his country and they remade his style – a little more subdued for the ’60s –

but he brought forth the black leather!

All the hits kept coming – I was surprised at just how many he had over 20 years!

Here is the new style – “BLACK LEATHER” and still playing to the audience.

Then in the 70’s came the VEGAS years – heavier and sideburns more pronounced – the famous white suit and cape!

And still, during that time – he kept producing the hits and his style changed – a bit more mature and calmer.

It was here he booked out every performance and to this day still holds the record for most sold

-out shows in a row in Vegas.

We were surprised at how well we enjoyed this show.

All three performers on stage at the end – a great show and we recommend anyone to see it!

Papa’s World – Living life one day at a time! With humor and good thoughts.

MY BLOG: livinglifedoingitmyway.blog – living life one day at a time!

My two mottos for the way I live – not knowing from day to day – since my heart attack – what tomorrow will bring.

Every day on social media – I post humor – to make myself smile and hopefully – others as well!

Humor – smiling – good thoughts for each and every day – trying to make a small difference.

Giving what we can to those less fortunate. Helping – caring makes our life much more rewarding.

Papa’s World – I try to make it a place – a haven of sorts of positive thoughts and good times in our life.

Thank you for taking the time to read and see the world we live in the autumn of our lives.

Papa’s World – Life in the Carolinas!

Spending the holidays in the warm Carolinas – at least warm to me!

Even when it looks gray and drab – at least I see no snow and ice – sand and water are fine for me.

Open-air shopping at the Outlets – love having my coffee and sitting here while I wait for Sherry!

Our family visiting for vacations – brings us much joy – hoping they all come again!

Living in Carolina – nine miles to the border of S.C. living our dream life one day at a time!

Watching sunrise and sunsets from our front driveway – living the southern lifestyle – CAROLINA LIVING!

Golfing with friends – is always a pleasure – one of the WHYS we choose to move down here!

No cares – no worries – just nights at home with my soulmate! Dreams come true.

Cotton candy sky – the ever-changing days and nights – yet no snow or ice – our lifestyle – livinglifedoingitmyway.blog

Life with humor and smiles in my thought is priceless.

Papa’s World – RAINBOW – Over Brambleton

GOOD MORNING

A couple days ago – Sherry was working for Tammy –

And I was watching Bode –

It had been raining and I glanced out the back window

to the East –

and saw a sight I never get used to –

A RAINBOW !

RAIN BOW OVER
BRAMBLETON VA.

Everything was fresh and clean from the Rain –

Even though we have a irrigation system

The lawn and trees and flowers

always react much better to natural rain fall.

The RAINBOW is a extra offshoot of refreshing rain.

RAIN BOW OVER
BRAMBLETON VA.
I called Bode over to look and he was like
That is so cool Papa !

Thank you for reading my daily blog

Just little everyday things in my life.
