I am more of a land dweller enjoying the ocean from my
comfy chair on the beach. The mystery of
the underwater ocean world with its’ burst of color from the variety of fish and
coral carries some intrigue. My
intrigue however, has only led me to stand safely on the ground peering into
an aquarium. During my recent venture to the quaint area of Lauderdale- by- the -Sea (see Days - 289, 290), I thought that it was time to “dive in” to an underwater
adventure of this area’s off coast coral
reefs and a nearby ship wreck (SS Copenhagen) .
A way to survive the empty nest and a "cracked "relationship with a fun daily challenge of new experiences, reflections, sources, and some biblical guidance. I hope this blog which offers a fun journey to survive by trying something new, either vicariously or by doing, will result in a survival tool kit to replace the past familiar doing, giving, and/or incorporating the interest of your child or your long gone love interest, with some new self interest(s).

Day 291- Pittsburgh CLO Brigadoon- A Classic Musical with A Ballet/Opera Flair - Find Love, Find Paradise
Brigadoon is a classic musical about two American gentlemen on vacation in Scotland
who discover a mythical Scottish village that appears only for a day every 100
years! During their exploration, Tommy finds love but love in this
mysterious world has a price. I remember watching the movie Briagdoon as
a child and being mesmerized by Gene Kelly’s dancing and the
dreamlike scenes of the Scottish Highlands.
This CLO production should be an
adventurous tale of dance and song about finding love and finding paradise.

Day 290 A Florida Off Season Summer Excursion-Lauderdale by the Sea (LBTS)/Perfect Mature Playground
You would think that a southern Florida vacation would be unbearable making you feel like a dripping candle in the sun. My recent discovery
of a
quaint area to relax, Lauderdale by the Sea, and a boutique
hotel located on the beach, The Plunge
Beach Hotel, changed my
perspective. LBTS, just 7 miles
north of Fort Lauderdale, is a perfect mature playground where you can relax, eat
well, and snorkel or dive on it’s off shore coral reefs and a nearby ship wreck (SS Copenhagen). The town
square invites you to rest in a rainbow colored Adirondack chair and is lined
with charming restaurants that do not disappoint the taste buds. Everything in
this playground is within walking distance in a 2.5 mile stretch!
