Jimmy Buffett Review





























June is almost here.  I thought May was a little busy.  However, June is shaping up to be even busier with a few long weekends for business meetings and niece Danielle's high school graduation - which will find us in the central coast.  Last week was Jimmy Buffett and my feathers were not flying but they were in a happy spot.  Just want to share a couple of photos of the absolute childish times that are had and seen at  the parking lot tail gate parties. The top photo with the man (I think it is a man - the beard might be real) in decorated coconuts - I have no clue who this guy is or his name - NOTHING.  I was just fascinated by his coconuts and just wanted to take his picture - and now here he is getting blog love on the Hyland's Island Blog.  Hubby was also fascinated by many coconuts but they were usually on the women.  #2 Old neighborhood friend Bob Render, me drinking tea (sure) and Rich having some fun and the bottom picture is me and our friend of a very long time Betsy.  

DISCLAIMER... If some of you have an odd phone message from last Thursday (Julie C) and a few others... it was Jimmy calling you and leaving a message of music that you could barely understand not ME. Not sure who else Rich and I dialed while swaying in the isles and listening to music.   
A few Lyrics to one of my favorite profound songs.  See if you can find it and actually here Jimmy singing it.  


Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On
TAKE THE WEATHER WITH YOU Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On
(Jimmy Buffett/Matt Betton)

I bought a cheap watch from the crazy man
Floating down Canal
It doesn’t use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And if I have trouble the warranty said
Breathe in breathe out move on

And it rained
It was nothing really new
And it blew
We’ve seen all that before
And it poured
The earth began to strain
Pontchartrain 
Leaking through the door
Tides at war

If a hurricane doesn’t leave you dead
It will make you strong
Don’t try to explain just nod your head
Breathe in breathe out move on

And it rained
It was nothing really new
And it blew
We’ve seen all that before
And it poured
The earth began to strain
Ponchartrain 
Buried the Ninth Ward 
To the second floor

According to my watch the time is now
The past is dead and gone
Don’t try to shake it just nod your head
Breathe in breathe out move on
Don’t try to explain it just bow your head
Breathe in breathe out move on

He didn't sing this at the concert but it a personal favorite... Have a great day and just breath in breath out move on.

You are way too funny...we have to have a girls' night out away from our normal place...somewhere where they offer libations. ;)
