Venice revisited
Jonal entry 987 | Wednesday,
May 31 2006
Those who remember the first Jonals here on the Nanty Glo Home Page
will remember that we began writing the journal entries in Oakwood at
Burbank, California, and that we shortly afterward moved to Marina Del
Rey, the yacht harbor for the city of Los Angeles. Four blocks from
our apartment in the Marina was the beginning of the Venice Beach promenade,
which I walked daily while working there. On Friday and Saturday, May
19 and 20, I had the opportunity to return to Venice and again "walk
the boards" (actually, the promenade is asphalt, but "boardwalk"
just seems necessary for a beachside walk). And I got a slide show's
worth of photos on my relatively new digital camera. So with no further
delay, here they are...click the thumbnail index below to start the
slide show. After clicking "Click here" to start the slides,
press <F11> to make your web browser full screen, for best viewing.
Press the arrow in the green circle and the slides should begin advancing
automatically, but if your browser doesn't do that, click the right
button to advance.

Today's chuckle
When it rains, it rains on the just and the unjust, but mostly on
the just. For the unjust have the just’s umbrella.

Kindness
in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profundity.
Kindness in giving creates love.
