Big Duck Old Friend

This song brings a tear to my eye, because today it's about Big Duck.

We knew the day would come, that's why this blog is called One More Time Around. Big Duck came through with flying colors taking us One More Time Around, from Lake Powell, to Ft Lauderdale to the St Lawrence Seaway and too many lakes and rivers in between to count. She's old and wrinkled like we are, but unlike us, she's still up to the task - we're the ones now too old to manage. At 75 years, the mind still wants to go, but the body says no.

Listen to A Summer Song again and remember that you too will one day have to say "goodby" to things you do and love. Take a lesson from Jeff and Suz by doing those things now so the memories can keep you going when your old bones can't.

Well, it's been almost a year later, and even though I can't seem to get her out on the water, I can't part with her... But I still get aboard, open a brew and think about the happy times she has provided me and my family.
