His "sister" and friends agreed that he would rather donate his organs than lay there in a coma with no anticipated return. We're getting ready to take a sunset, dim lighted boat procession down the Barnegat Bay in missing man formation (Beav was a Master Captain and Sea Tow licensed).
Beav's idea of heaven would be a bar with a never ending supply of Budweiser and TJD. With The Rolling Stones thundering on the old victrola. They asked me to wear his hat tonight.
Live long and prosper old chum. Hope the wind is blowing in from the east, the blue claws are biting, and the keg was just tapped.
Goodnight, Beav. Get home safe.
Sorry to hear this Tipsy. *clink* L'chaim

If the winds ever blow your sails (or up them for that matter) this direction, it would be a sight to see. I'm picturing someone with a drink in his hand, the umbrella garnish, safely wafting him in to a safe landing. And me saying "Either that's Oggar, or Mary Poppins has let herself go."
Thnak you for kind words for a friend, you especially, Oggar, I wish you had met. A man that showed me as I watched his life end, that the ferry man that picks you up for that voyage, is a familiar face. Possibly the same ferry man that takes us to the Island? Possibly the same Island?
Only a dog nose, and the shadow. Coincidentally, I have a dog named Shadow.

The only picture we took, happened this morning and as bad as it is, I'll share it with you. It's me, wearing my own hat, in my friend's back yard (as the dock master had a problem with us...apparently we lost our hearing throughout the evening of drinking)
That is someone's bra on my head. Not mine. I'm guessing Beav's. He would've liked it that way
