Here in Pensacola, this week has been all about our fallen pilot, Marine Captain Jeff Kuss, of the Blue Angels. He was brought back to Pensacola by Fat Albert and under escort by the #5 Angel, his partner solo pilot. You can read about Jeff Kuss HERE.

Mr Wonderful took these two photos.

fallenbluehomecomingcrA service was held for Jeff Kuss here before he was sent home to Colorado where he will rest in peace.

The photo below is the missing man formation pilots fly when one of their own has fallen. I was fortunate enough to grab this photo as they flew over my house. The Navy base is very close to us and there was a lot of activity as they did flyovers of Jeff Kuss’ service. It will be very easy for me to remember because it was my birthday.

BiloxiBeach530copyrightWhew. Another busy week. Took a road trip to Biloxi and have been doing a lot of work in the yard. Taking care of planting and mulching so I can concentrate on putting down some grass seed.

Sometimes I get the reading bug and I cannot stop picking up the next book, then the next book, then the next book…

I have also been doing a lot of work outside in preparation for my mother’s arrival this week. I am super excited and know the family from Alabama will be dropping in too. We will be playing endless games of cards along with many dips in the pool and a barbecue or two. I love summertime and it has arrived here in the Florida Panhandle in full force!

I must spend more time visiting you guys and sharing some comment love along with writing some reviews that I owe to some fabulous authors and I want to thank them for their patience.

I also want to thank Fiktshun for a box of books I won from her some time ago. Once I started, there were so many wonderful reads I couldn’t stop. The past three days I have gotten caught up in The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken and am lost in this dystopian world. I am sharing the books so you can see why I cannot stop reading this story. I got all three of them. I must find out what happens to Ruby and Liam! There are also two novellas, but I do not have them…yet.

Happy Mothers Day to all you mothers out there and even if you are not a mother, I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. 😀

2016-02-21 00.23.49

This week was very laid back as I regrouped and reorganized. I have also been suffering from allergies. This year has been one of the worst yet. It seems like every other day there is something else blooming and blowing in the wind. The good thing…it will pass. So…if you are in the same boat as me…hang in there.
