Pre-pandemic days we'd usually go for a long ride on our bikes every single weekend. Climbing that hilltop is quite a challenge but it was something we enjoyed doing. My first one was tough though. It was my first 70km ride...

Jeff Moffitt @toniganzon Oh ouch! Do you ever want to ride again? Like do you ever get the desire?

Yesterday, I posted about rainbows at Disney World, and how there seems to be one just about every time it rains nearby when I visit the theme park. Today's discussion is about the same rainbow as in the photo from yesterday's...

I've said for years that Disney somehow can control the weather. For example, every time I go to Disney there always seems to be a full moon in the sky overhead at night. Always. I'm not sure how they do it, but I'm not...

Jeff Moffitt @DaddyEvil Actually, nowadays we will leave the house at 5 or 6am, not necessarily so we can get to the parks earlier, but so that we can beat the traffic congestion.

On the news today is the story of a man fined $31,000 for attempting to smuggle 65 reptiles through the post. He trapped the lizards in Western Australia and mailed them to New South Wales. Unfortunately, all but ten either died...

Jeff Moffitt @JudyEv I would agree, especially since it’s easy money. He’ll just have to find a different way to do it.

Who wants to join me in this secluded white-sand beach with clear blue water? It was one of the most peaceful beaches I have ever been to. Not too many tourists, just a few. Probably because getting there isn't easy at all. But...

Jeff Moffitt @toniganzon I was out in the sun so much my skin became dark, almost naturally dark, so I never felt like I needed sunscreen since my skin never burned. Like you, I realized in my 30s that I needed to protect my skin.

A friend of mine married a man when she got pregnant and later on separated because she found out he was gay. She vowed never to have a Filipino guy ever. So her boyfriends were mostly South Koreans or Chinese. These Asian guys...

@TRaceyjayne had this discussion about things that we should do at least once and skinny dipping was one of them. I did it once in my entire existence back when I was 18 at our university campus. I stayed in a freshmen dormitory...

Over the past week or so, Florida and parts of the Caribbean islands have been blanketed by Saharan dust that has blown here across the Atlantic Ocean all the way from Africa. Don't worry, the dust isn't so thick that it's...

Jeff Moffitt @MarieCoyle Some people are just a magnet for bugs, and some people aren't. I'm one of the lucky ones that don't seem to be a magnet.

Here in north Florida, we have been in an extreme drought for months, and the government is estimating that we are about 30 inches below normal in rainfall. Basically, a significant amount. We did get a good day of rain last...

Jeff Moffitt @MarieCoyle I have seen more than I ever care to see or discuss. Not only physical destruction, but loss of life. The emotional toll on those directly affected is just as bad as being in a war zone.

Jeff Moffitt @kareng I didn't think buzzards went after live prey, I thought they were just scavengers who ate dead prey they found. But I could be wrong. If they're hungry, I'm sure they'll try to eat anything they can. Were the LED lights around the chicken coop for...

Jeff Moffitt @sol_cee The last time I lost my phone, I went into total panic mode. I retraced my steps everywhere I had been that day, and couldn't find it anywhere. Then I remembered I have the Find-a-Phone app installed, so I was able to go on my computer and turn on the...

Jeff Moffitt @Ineeddentures I think about modern times where everything is made cheaply, and is disposable, and how bad that is for the environment. I always try to repair my shoes or my clothes before I decide to discard them. I try to get as much life out of them as...

Jeff Moffitt @lovebuglena It is one of the few theme parks that is like that. And it's not necessarily because they care about the comfort of the guests while waiting in queues, but because they decided to make the queues part of the storyline for the rides.

I started wearing a bikini only in my late 20s. Only when I had my son. Only when I was already married. Never when I was single. Why? I wasn't comfortable showing my body in public. I was never that confident. And I didn't...

Jeff Moffitt @toniganzon I was the same way when I was younger. Never used sunscreen. I was very dark skinned from being so tan. Now, I worry about skin cancer from all that sun exposure when I was younger.
