Day 9

On my day 8 post the video was too large to upload, however, it would not
let me delete :( sigh.

Gators music can be found reverbnation.com/garyalexander
There are no youtube videos still trying to figure the @ stuff as his songs are all original

Day 9 just a little snippet of a play along

I am thankful that Gator didn't give up on doing
what he loves to do *besides grilling* this is
his 2nd passion, I am his first :)
The smiles says it all, this was last friday
out with Karaoke friends



















Day 9 I am thankful that we got to see this yesterday

A giant 13 barge and ship approaching
Lock n Dam 18  Inola OK
there is 18 locks between Rosedale, MS
and Inola OK

This is the most inland lock, as Port of
Catoosa, is the most inland PORT










Waiting patiently for her arrival in the lock



and were in, this process took about an hour
as it had to break some of the barges
away in order to fit.












Wow this ship was way bigger than
we first thought
Yes, it is considered a ship as it has
its own boat  They are actually
called tugboats.
This one has 3 large engines









Hope everybody has a great rest of your week

Surgery

 Surgery was successful! Praise the LORD.  Had a pancreatic episode due to opiods (they cauae that with me)if I do not eat enough.  In this case a very small cup of jello wasn't enough.   They then took me off food and water till the dr comes in the am.  I haven't had solid food since 530 wed.   Iam about in a raging fit and this fluid IV isn't cutting it.  I am very weak from no food and very dry mouthed .   Please pray this gets resolved quickly.  PT starts Wed July 6th.    Let this healing journey begin.

Sunday Blessings

Revelation 7:10 To...
