I still love that too! RIP Neil Sedaka

We learned about George Washington Carver in grammar school, I'm happy to say 😊
And, I read the book written by Ron Chernow about George Washington as an adult. It covered his slave-owning, including his private secretary he brought to Philly.

Grandpa, I couldn't agree more! I had the same reaction, reading it many years after the first time!

Good #Caturday afternoon and Happy ❤️ Day for those that partake.💐

Hilarious!!

I believe this.

Some good news!!

Wow!

Thank you Bruce! Perfect lyrics.

This book: Yikes! ...It really opened my eyes.

I love The Boss..

I hope this makes you smile 😃

Wow! Great pic of the Horsehead Nebula! Thank you Clay

This is such a beautiful story. Truly heartwarming 💖

"They found the coats on Thursday morning.

Fifteen winter coats. Good ones, not garbage. Hanging on the chain-link fence outside Lincoln Elementary.No note. No explanation. Just coats zipped up like ghosts waiting for bodies.

Principal Morris freaked out. Called the police. "Could be stolen"

Awwwww... This is beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. RIP Rob

Look at the Eagles! Awesome!

Great movie based on a great book! Watched it on Netflix right after the tragic news about Rob Reiner. It helped a bit.

"Animals don't behave like men,' 'If they have to fight, they fight; and if they have to kill they kill. But they don't sit down and set their wits to work to devise ways of spoiling other creatures' lives and hurting them. They have dignity and animality.”

This book was so sad, I had to skim ahead and see that he was "sort of" ok at the end.

A photo of a night sky FULL of stars over a snowy Mount Hood in Oregon. Only a few exposures of black rock on the mountain's ridgelines are visible. The mountainside facing forward is partially lit by the glow from the metro area of Portland, OR, a fair distance away. The glow in the sky right behind the mountain is from the main ski area, Timberline. Trees in the forest below the mountain, and around the lake are only dark silhouettes. The reflection from the lake below is scattered and subtle because the lake is frozen over. I was not expecting that because this lake doesn't freeze often.

Late #Stunday post!
Been busy today, but here's #MountHood, #Oregon, under a star filled sky, over a frozen #LostLake!
I went for the night sky and planets, forgot some equipment, an icy road, and a couple feet of snow! #📷 #scape #ECK #Stars #Winter #MountainMonday #snow #astro #nature #hiking

Thank you for this picture, it is stunning!

To know that even one life was made easier because you have lived,
that is to have succeeded.

Thank you! I thought it was some type of fish!!

A double rainbow with blue sky for #BlueskyMonday. My wide angle lens couldn't quite get it all so I flipped the camera to portrait and made a #panorama. #photography #landscape #EastCoastKin #clouds #rainbow #Nikon

Wow! Stunning photo of an African Fish Eagle.

This is so beautifully breathtaking and wonderful to watch and listen.
