Sailing the Globe

If you could do anything in the world, what would it be?

Garden Jewels

A little impression of summer before summer turns into fall. I'm so grateful for all the rain we're getting in Florida~ it makes everything so green!

The Sands of Time

Art frees us from the confines of dimensional space. We can look up and down at the same time, or in and out. In that way, it helps us see that there is more to existence than meets the physical eye.

Sunrise Tea

A lovely sunrise and some strong tea are a nice way to start the day. I'm having Irish Breakfast today! Hope your day is glorious!!

Phredd and Phœbee– Phresssh!

Quoted from "The Daily Glob" 6/18/07

Yes, we phinally phound them! The Snowes are safe and sound and living in a highly air-conditioned condo in Miami! It was our intrepid tabloid editor Toni (who happened to be on his honeymoon), that phound this photo in a magazine that was innocently lying on a hotel lobby table. Whaddayaknow?

So we sent our equally intrepid papparazzi down to scope out the scene and see if they could get an interview with the notorious Snowes.

While they were there, those pappas decided to check out the phamous Miami phenomenon, Bongo’s Cuban Café, which was phounded by the phabulous Emilio and Gloria Estefan. They went on Phriday and dined on all the phamiliar Cuban phare, and were so pleased that they went back on Saturday to join the phestivities! Guess who they phound at Bongo’s Saturday night Latin Dance Party!?! Yoooou got it– those two phun-loving Snowes: hot, drippy and grinning like a couple of kids in a candy store. They’re not too bad with the cha-cha, either!

They did manage to get a little interview with the phrozen couple, so we’ll let you in on the conversation:

Pap1: "So, are you two in hiding, now that you’re notorious art-thieves?"

SnoM: "No, w-w-way, man! We left P-p-palm Beach to get away from g-g-g-uys like you!!"

Pap1: "Well, now that we’ve phound you, why don’t you tell us– for the public record– how do you two live so high-on-the-hog?"

SnoM: "We really d-d-on’t w-w-want to talk to y-y-you at all, but, ph-ph-phor the record: we work!"

Pap2: "Work? What’s that?"

Pap1: "So you landed an ad job for Florida Orange Juice?"

SnoW: "Yeah, isn’t that c-c-cool?"

SnoM: "You guys can b-b-buzz off now. See ya!"

And that was it! They were off in a phlash and onto the dance phloor, amid a swirling crowd under swirling colored lights– swirling with the brass, the guitars, and the rhythm of the congas, the claves, and the guiro. And those papparazzi didn’t even get photos! You’re phired!

Phredd and Phœbee at the Beach

"Hey friends and fam! We've been enjoying our stay in Florida so much we forgot to write! Hope ya'll (that's how they talk down here you know) aren't too jealous. It took us a while to warm up, so we roasted marshmallows on the beach, and had s'mores! We've collected lots of shells and we're taking lots of pics. Don't think we're getting tan though (he. . .he)! Tomorrow we're going to try the seadoo. No pics for that though. Don't get any frostbite while we're gone."

Love and hugs, Phredd and Phœbee Snowe

Just Because There's No Lifeguard Doesn't Mean We Can't Have Tea
