I always thought this – now in retirement – I still think any day of golf is better than – well you choose it! LOL
The Tower Garden – the smaller unit can be used indoors with grow lights – the outdoor unit is larger – producing with just water – light and nutrients and air!
Our Tower Garden is covered up for freezing temps – looks like something from Star Wars! LOL

When ever we are on the beach – she is drawn to the water – wading – watching the surfers.
The beach draws her – to let off stress and a quiet place to walk – the sounds of the surf – the warm waters.
With friends – out and about – exploring the world with these two – every couple years we plan a break.
Buck and Cindy are our close friends – we moved into a house next to them 36 1/2 years ago –
and had known thenm before that. We get along and enjoy much of the same things.
Cindy is very active as is Sherry – always on the go. They walk together when we are around.
Now – our new home is about 40 minutes away from them.
We try to golf once aweek or go out to a show or dinner.
Family has and always will play a part in our lives. Sherry now is the oldest – and they all look up to her.
Here is Bode in front row with the five grandaughters behind him.
She reminds me so much of her father – tall – slim – smile – always on the go and a born entrepreneur
He always was looking for a way to make money and she has that also.
Not afraid to stand up in front of people and talk.
And they played golf just alike!
I became very good friends with him before he passed away – he told me many things promising I would not repeat them. All had to do with the War and I shall keep that promise I made to him.
I repsected him that much – it was a bonding moment for him and me.
Sitting on the Intercoastal waterway – just her and me – watching the boats and having dinner.
She loves our new area – back in NVA she would take dozens of visitors on tour guides into DC.
She is a leader – a natural born one at that!
And now – our new home – close to the beaches and the ICW – close to golfing and close to friends –
A place for FAMILY to visit and room to have them.
This is her happy place once again – walking – meeting new neighbors –
exploring and in a area that does not have the freezing ice and snow.
The new lanai and her putting her finishing touches on it!
These are but a few of her happy places – places she feels most comfortable in.

WHEREVFRIENDS MEET THE FAMILY – FAMILY MEETS FRIENDS – PAPA’S WORLD – living life!
It is with in mind – I record our lives one day at a time –
hence my blog: livinglifedoingitmyway.blog
In a little over one year – thanks to my wife Sherry –
I now have a following of 362 plus followers!
Of which I only know four of them!
The rest are from all over the USA and the WORLD!
Screen shot on a normal day – I never though this would happen – but I guess projecting good thoughts – happy family life and adventures of two 70 plus year old’s must appeal to people!
Sherry and Papa – (Tom) living our life one day at a time. Each day I am alive is a blessing! I do not take it for granted.
Sherry is the driving force behind my blog –
” YOU HAVE TO WRITE AND PUT IT SOMEWHERE – A PLACE WE CAN FIND – WHEN YOU ARE GONE”
That is the reality and I am okay with it!
I write for family – I write to record for future generations so they know who I was!
Each day I open the site – answer the comments and push on!
I include lots of pictures – they all tell a story.
Each day I start out not knowing what I will write about
I see a picture I have taken – a event we did – or where a day has taken us.
Then – I start – so far I have scheduled a month ahead in stories –
That way – is we are going someplace – all I have to do is share it to face book!
On here – it is automatically scheduled!
My hope and desire is to bring inner peace to those that read this – and to see – when adversity hits home – when death knocks on your door – there is a life beyond and each day is a blessing – one that had it gone the other way – well – I am happy it didn’t – and that is going to be my legacy – living life doing it my way – blog!
The night before we came back home to N.VA. – we drove 45 minutes South
Near Pawley’s Island S.C
to “BROOK GREEN”!
( and we will go back in warmer weather – to see it again in daylight!)
Huge Oak trees – with hanging lights – almost from the top!Reflections in the water of lights!
The whole place – hundreds of acres – is dressed up in colored themes –
and over 1000 candles lit by hand!
Bronze statues are everywhere!
Some of the 1000 candles lit by hand!Candles and lights – everywhere we went – a different theme – and colorful lights!
There were food trucks and a tent set up with drinks – hot chocolate – coffee and tea as well as water – soft drinks and beer!
So many different areas lit up – hard to capture them all!You had to stay on the paths – and after dark – you could easily get lost in the maze of light!Hanging moss lit up!Paper lanterns lit in red and white colors!Like fire flies in the sunset!Sculptures with light reflecting on the water!
There must be a lot of volunteers to do all of this!
And – we only saw part of the park –
there also is a zoo here but was closed!
