Dragonflies at home

We are three days away from our Leg 2 departure! The boat and trailer are ready, we’re gathering up food from home and packing clothes and personal items. Like last year, we’ve crammed our final week at home with seeing friends and family, although there’s no big send-off party this time around (we still talk about what a great turnout and how much fun we had at Hansen’s Harbor last September).

Walking around the condo today I documented our dragonfly items on display and thought I'd share. But first, today’s Bonus Question: Professional athletics again (apologies to our non sports fans, but it’s NHL playoff time, my favorite season). What famous hockey player wore a jersey number that rhymed with his last name? (answer at end of post)






Bonus Question Answer: Bobby Orr—his #4 jersey was retired by the Boston Bruins in 1979, the same year he was inducted into the Hall of Fame at age 31, the youngest ever at the time. Sadly, his amazing career was cut short by a knee injury.
