Yes, I actually danced with Chubby Checker! Once at one of his performances at Busch Gardens Tampa. It’s one of the reasons I still love going to Busch Gardens. Their Real Music Series has some of the most amazing performances. ❤

Since I’m inarticulate,
I express myself
with images.~ Helen Levitt
Photographer
Born on: 31st August 1913
Porte Ponderings:
Images have so much more impact than words.
A small baby looking up at their mother.
A groom getting ready for his wedding day.
A family celebrating a moment.
A black and white photo of poverty or war.
From the heights of passion to the lows of desperation photos are the visualization of our souls.
Porte Photos’ Daily Quote: August 12th
I don’t use the phrase ‘I love you’ very often,
~ George Hamilton
but I say it every time I talk to my children.
American – Actor Born: August 12, 1939
Porte Ponderings:
Similar to George Hamilton, I don’t use the phrase ‘I love you’ very often, but I’ve expanded it to include my children, my grandchildren, and my daughter-in-laws.
My eldest son always ends his phone calls to me with ‘I love you’. I feels so good I think I’ll start doing it too with all of my loved ones.
