The moon just turned blue

Greetings! Busy day here but I’ll post more on that later. For now, a couple of photos from my Philippines life to tide you over.

A beautiful full moon last night as seen from Mangos…
…so I had the chicken breast salad as I enjoyed the view.
I can never seem to get a good moon shot. The first photo was using maximum zoom. This one is no zoom. Which do you like best? It looked better than both with the naked eye.
We had a Hash meeting at Cheap Charlies today at noon. So, I had some lunch brought up from Foodies downstairs. Got me this cottage pie. It tasted fine, but it was cold in the middle. Totally ruined it for me. The waitress offered to take it down for reheating but I told her never mind.
Speaking of disappointments, Facebook reminded me that four years ago I was here in Barretto on vacation with my Korean girlfriend Eun Oke. She actually had a blast and the bargirls loved her. But at the end of the trip, she announced we had no future together because I wanted to retire in a poor country. Oh well, here I am.

Anyway, I’m making the best of things. Notwithstanding my bitching all the time I know I am indeed blessed.


Oh you can count me out of your triangle
I’m number three I’m too late to lie
And I don’t need heartache at all
I can’t stand the fall
And the moon just turned blue
Goodbye, goodbye
Little darlin’ the moon just turned blue
So baby goodbye

  1. Pouring down rain here. Thanks for sending us the latest typhoon, which started right by the Philippines! The storm rolled straight toward us like a bowling ball.

    John David Souther looks a lot like Chris McCandless. You may recall my review of the book and film versions of Into the Wild.

  2. Into each life some rain must fall! We have had a relatively mild wet season. Even the typhoons have missed us so far.

    That is an uncanny resemblance to J.D. And thanks for sharing the review, it was good reading it again.

  3. “When the Moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie That’s Amore”. I’ll take a blue moon over blue balls any day. Peace Out!
