The Turtle…
Observe a turtle:
They share the rock with their peers.
We could learn from them.
Stay groovy…

Wind…
Blowing sometimes fierce
and sometimes gently, yet you
always know it’s there.
Stay groovy…

Birds…
As light beams in my
window, I hear birds chirping.
They say, “Good morning!”
Stay groovy…

Harvest Moon…
An enormous moon
full and beaming burnt orange
in the autumn sky.
Stay groovy…

Autumn Leaves…
Flutter to the ground,
Some yellow, orange, and red;
Autumn leaves are here.
Stay groovy…

Sunflowers…
A burst of yellow
catches my eye. Sunflowers
blossom in the field.
Stay groovy…

The Candle…
The flicker of light,
the scent travels through the air,
and I feel serene.
Stay groovy…

It’s amazing that by thinking up something that trends, even for a short period of time, you can make millions.
Such is the case with the Pet Rock creator, Gary Dahl. If you were around in the 1970s, you remember the Pet Rock. Dahl was inspired with the idea after hearing friends complain about their pets. He found the perfect pet in a “rock”. There’s no need to walk, feed, or bathe them, and they don’t get sick or die.
Dahl brilliantly marketed smooth stones from Rosarito Beach in Mexico as actual pets, with customized storage boxes, and “breathing holes” added to give it a more life like appearance. They were a hot commodity in 1975, but were only on point for about six months. At four dollars a pop, Dahl sold 1.5 million of the Pet Rocks, and they made him a millionaire.
Do you have an idea of something that might catch on? Take a shot…Even if it’s only big for a brief period, you could make a fortune.
Stay groovy…

So Dorian came and left, and we were fortunate here in Orlando as we “dodged the bullet” and didn’t even lose power. We are the lucky ones…
I’m so sad and worried for those in the Bahamas. When I was young, my family frequented Green Turtle Cay in Abaco, Bahamas. I have such fond memories of time on the beach and fresh caught grouper and lobster with Lincoln Jones on a day trip. Bluff House, New Plymouth, Miss Emily’s Blue Bee Bar…
The population there was hit with Dorian as a Category 5 hurricane. The visuals I’ve seen so far show near destruction. In the coming days we will learn more of how the islands fared. For now, I’ll count my blessings that we were spared…
Stay groovy…

Damn you Dorian…
Stay groovy…
