What's Up Doc


What's happening around this greek island




Everyone in the family that could went and gave blood yesterday.
The mobile blood clinic comes around every three or four months, essential in a crisis


The rowing grandaughter's athletic coach moved all the ergonomic rowing machines from the gym and gave them to athletes that had room in their homes .  Our two rowing sisters can now do daily workouts in the living room.  



Watching the sun go down over the Pacific ocean. 
 New Zealand
Never mind a Greek island, who wouldn't want to be locked down with this view



The view over Poros town today.  It has been raining all day, it's cold and damp.  The fog came down early and there was an orange glow in the sky long before sunset.  Maybe clouds of orange dust,  blown up from the Sahara.

We have had the fire lit since midday

  3. Must say the weather in New Zealand looks better. They don't want our blood as we are too old.

  4. How strange. We haven't lit a fire for the past two days because it's been so warm; and it threatens to continue!

  5. We have the fire going as well
    Even the weather is helping keep everyone locked in
    A beautiful view to just sit and have a nice glass of wine

    1. Here's to you Dave. Whenever I need a lift I go to those sminky donkeys. Who's a handsome donkey then, coochy coochy coo.

  7. It's good to help out when you can, giving blood. And it's great that the machines are getting use and not just sitting.
    I have to admit that NZ skies are pretty awesome!

  8. You asked, who does our shopping, at this time. In regard to my loved Goat Cheese.

    Our Dear Daughter in Law is taking care of us. But there are a couple of health issues, in her family, which are no problem, in ordinary times. But could be very, very bad, in these horrible virus times.

    She orders on the phone or on line, and food is delivered or she picks up at the curb. She no longer wants to go into grocery stores, which are very busy. And I completely understand.

    So I would not ask her, to go into a particular store, where I used to get my Goat Cheese.

    And so, I gladly give that up, during this time. It's one of the things, I can look forward to, when this thing, is over. No matter when that will be. -smile-

    Stay safe on your pretty Island...!!!!

    1. What a pity, but I can understand now. Thought you could get the cheese at the supermarket. Definitely not time for speciality shopping, especially in your d in laws case
