Marwin Moment #2

My dad was preparing to take several relatives out for a boat ride in the pontoon boat at their lake house. The boat was tucked under a large blue canopy, where it sits for protection when not being used. All passengers were on board. When he was slowly backing the boat out, Marwin reminded everyone, "Make sure you duck your head so you don't hit it on the canopy as we back out." The boat slowly backed out. "Heads down, everyone. Heads down," Marwin reminded them one more time.

That's when Marwin hit his head on the canopy.

Ouch!

Something to think about ...

"We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities."

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Marwin Moment #1

When my parents retired, they bought their dream house on the lake in Minnesota where we spent our summer vacations. During one of the first summers on the lake, my dad planned to water ski. He was so excited to dive in and swim that he forgot to take off his eye glasses. Head first into the lake, with his glasses sinking to the bottom. Oops! Now that's a Marwin Moment!

Greetings
