Sun, Sand, Movies, and Manageable Nature

Musician, Travel

First of all — Curse you, Netflix and Amazon Prime for fixing it so your films cannot be played via a projector. Good. I got that out of my system.

I just had the best day yesterday. No pain all day, no issues other than fatigue.

I’m working hard on my silent film scores. I’ve finished the Chaplin two-reeler and started the Harold Lloyd short! Then … Nosferatu!

We now know surgery will be early July and eight weeks recuperation after that. Then I want a vacation after recuperation. I have something specific in mind.

It’s funny how I arrived at this.

In the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, there was a short scene shot on a sandbar well out into the ocean somewhere, about ankle deep. I remember seeing the film at an invited premiere because Jonathan worked for Disney at the time. I saw that sandbar 15 years ago, and thought, “I want to go there.”

And I’ve been thinking about it ever since.

I found a specific bay on Bermuda that I really like. I’ll think about it.

Tobacco Bay, St. George’s Island, Bermuda

    Huzzah for a good day yesterday! I think that looks like a wonderful, peaceful locale for a post-recuperation vacay.

    Yay for no pain! I hope pain-feee days are ahead and permanent after the surgery. A vacation to a sandbar sounds amazing!

    SO Thankful for BEST days!! Praise and Thanks be to God!
    i love the gratuitous dog photo. Eli is so regal, and Higgins, i dunno, his expressions always make me giggle. it’s that permanent “you lookin’ at me? whatever it was i didn’t do it” side look face!
    i would really enjoy those movies with your scores accompanying them. i think Nosferatu is the scariest!
    been praying for your surgery already. i am glad you have a time frame now.
    lastly, i hope you get to that beach! looks so perfect!
    I LOVE YOU! ❤ ❤ 😀
