OUR WORLD - The Call of the Blue Yonder . . .


Ah . . . the irresistible call of the blue yonder . . .


We're off within a few hours to seek solace by the blue sea


where the jetty invites you to be 'gone fishin' . . .


the water is clear,


the sunrise casts shadows in the sand,


the sunsets are to die for


and freshly caught 'fruit de mere' mouthwateringly sweet.



I'll be back at the end of the week . . . maybe . . .

That is OUR WORLD, what is yours???
