Porte Photos’ Daily Quote: April 7th, 2024

Dreams were all they gave for free
to ugly duckling girls like me.

~ Janis Ian
Singer and songwriter
Born on: 7th April 1951

Porte Ponderings:

Maybe like the ugly duckling I was never a duck or a swan, but a Woodstork, unique and vibrant. Today marks my 67th birthday. I’m so lucky to have a wonderful family, a few close friends and good health. Aging may not be for sissies, but I’m blessed because so many aren’t allowed the pleasure of growing old. Besides it’s better than the alternative 😉 Looking forward to the next trip around the sun. Tomorrow’s solar eclipse may not be visible due to clouds, but it will still happen.

Today is my step-son’s birthday. As he edges closer to 50, it makes me feel older as well. Always full of energy, able to make us smile, almost on command, he is enjoying driving truck and living in West Lorne. Although I think he will never be completely satisfied and will always looking for that one thing better. Always striving for that extra bit. A quality driving him forward.
