With me it was, "Ride of the Valkyries," with the stereo loud on the cockpit speakers while sailing along at 8-9 knots with a 30 knot tailwind! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, alas, we digress... Photos... I went to Germany in university for a semester. I purposely did not bring my nice Olympus SLR. Sure, my memories are flawed now... but I do have memories thinking about the places I traveled to. Imagine... you couldn't take photos anyway when crossing into East Germany or Czechoslovakia at that time - you would be shot by one of the machine gun carrying soldiers with their jack boots and poochy pants and mean faces! I didn't worry about someone stealing the camera while I slept or showered and I didn't have to carry that extra weight in my pack when hiking and hitch-hiking. Yes... I do regret missing some photos but, however flawed, I still have what's left of my memories and hopefully they won't be erased any time soon!

Forum Support Tommy T. Posted July 17, 2019 Author Forum Support Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) I will buy a lifetime supply of those for L!!! Did you find those at the same pharmacy where they sell, "Damnitall?" Edited July 17, 2019 by Tommy T. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Tommy T. Posted July 17, 2019 Author Forum Support Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) I guess I remember many things from my own eyes, the music, scent and touch and not always photos. But I realize too that photos do add so much to the remembrance of experiences. I just don't appreciate when L wants photo after photo after photo and so many selfies that it takes away from the experience for me? So I am old fashioned - I am the first to admit that.

OzeMike Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Could be more significance to this hole JGF To go down the rabbit hole. To enter into a situation or begin a process or journey that is particularly strange, problematic, difficult, complex, or chaotic, especially one that becomes increasingly so as it develops or unfolds. (An allusion to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
