    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Connie and I went to St. George State Park several days ago, and besides being a bit windy, it was an excellent day for walking on the beach. Heck, this is what retired people SHOULD be doing! Connie found several sand dollars and several baby's ears shells so she was happy. We hadn't planned on being out there very long, as we didn't feel like sliming ourselves over with sunscreen. But you know how that goes. We both had some sun induced pinkness on our shoulders that night.

Water was a bit chilly, to us anyway, but there was a guy swimming there. Probably from Canada, I guess so the water probably felt bathtub warm to him.

Lots of broken shells washing up on the beach, and even saw a good number of coquina shells, which we haven't seen for a while. So maybe things are on the rebound in this part of the Gulf of Mexico after that oil "spill" disaster several years back.

No offense to WebSlave, I much prefer cold geographical locations to sunny and hot geographical locations:face_palm_02::shrug01:. I find the beach very very pretty, in video's like WebSlave posted though.
