Picasso and the Octogenarian.......

In 2005, at the age of 83, at an age when she would be expected to be sittin' in a rocking chair every day, my mother decided to go on a cruise with some of her friends.

Mom And Her Friends Go A'Cruisin'.......

As you can see from the photographs, she had a blast.

Hi Picasso!  May I Have This Dance? 

One of the highlights of her trip was the stop they made in Florida, where she swam with Picasso, the dolphin.  Look at my mom's facial expression of pure joy.

Go Picasso!

I bring all this up today because tomorrow she is leaving on another cruise trip with friends---at the very young age of 88.  Bon Voyage!
