ROCKETS RED GLARE-TITUSVILLE,FL

                                 I READ OPRAH'S MAGAZINE WHILE I WAS ON LINE AT WALMART.  IT SAID:  GET OUT OF WALMART.  NOT!  IT SAID DETERMINE YOUR FAVORITE THINGS AND MAKE TIME TO DO THEM.  SO I BOUGHT SOME 97CENT FLOWERS.  THAT'S WHAT I HAD GONE TO WALMART FOR.  BUT I DECIDED 99CENTS WAS TOO HIGH.  THE FLOWERS ARE 88CENTS AT THE WALMART ON CAPE COD.  SO THAT WAS STEP ONE.
                                TODAY I DID STEP TWO AFTER I PAID $185 TO GET THE REFRIGERATOR REPAIRED.  I MISSED THE TRIP TO ORLANDO AND TAMPA WITH MY HUSBAND.  IT'S ALL FOR THE BEST BECAUSE HE COULDN'T STAY IN TAMPA.  HE HAD TO RUSH BACK TO ORLANDO.  SO I DODGED THAGT BULLET.
                                ALL LAST YEAR I NEVER MADE IT TO THE TITUSVILLE LIBRARY.  I WENT THERE TODAY.  IT'S VERY RELAXING.  I DISCOVERED A NEW FLORIDIA AUTHOR DORSEY.  HE USED TO WRITE FOR THE TAMPA TRIBUNE.  SO I'LL GET ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE ON FLORIDA BESIDES CARL HIASSEN AND RANDY WAYNE WHITE.  SO I DIDN'T GET TO TAMPA TODAY BUT I DISCOVERED A TAMP A AUTHOR.  I USE D TO LIVE ON THE GULF UNTIL 2005, SO IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE  WHAT GOES ON THERE.
                                      NEXT I HEADED FOR MY FAVORITE COFFEEE SHOP AND BAKERY IN TITUSVILLE.  IT WAS ONE O'CLOCK TO ALL THE MORNING GLORY MUFFINS WERE GONE.  SO I HAD AN ORANGE CRAISIN ONE.  WHEN WERE CRAISINS INVENTED AND BY WHOM?  I READ A GIGANTIC COFFE TABLE PICTURE BOOK ABOUT THE NATIOANL PARKS.   I WAS AT HALEAKALA IN HAWAII THIS SUMMER.  THE USTAIRS ROOM AT EH SUNSHINE BAKERY IN TITUSVILLE IS GREAT.  IT HAS MURALS OF FLORIDA BIRDS AND LANDSCAPES BY AL RAO,   LOTS OF LEATHER ARM CHAIRS AND DARK WOOD COFFEE TABLES.  THE WINDOWS GIVE VIEWS OF THE RESTORED EARLY 20TH CENTURY BUILDINGS IN TITUSVILLE PLUS PALM TREES AND GREENERY. 
                                            NEXT I HEADED OVER THE BRIDGE TO THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE VISITOR CENTER .  I TOOK A WALK ON THEIR BOARDWALK THROUGH A SAWTOOTH PALMEEETTO GROVE(HAMMOCK) AND VISITED THE ART GALLERY INSIDE.  THEN I DROVE 6 MILES TO THE CANAVERAL NATIONAL SEASHORE TO SEE THE UNSPOILED 24 MILE SAND DUNED BEACH.  YOU PASS THE LAUNCH PADS OF THE KENNEDY SPACE CENTER IN THE DISTANCE.  THE PARK AND WILDLIFE REFUGE WERE SET ASIDE IN THE 1960'S AS A BUFFER ZONE FOR THE KENNEDY SPACE CENTER DURING HTE APOOLO MOON LAUNCHES.  I SAW THE SEA AND SOME SURFERS AND THEN HEADED HOME TO MY HOME ON THE SIXTH HOLE OF THE LA CITA GOLF COURSE. 
                                           SO THAT'S MY OPRAH DAY.  OH I WENT TO A GARAGE SALE AND MAY BUY A MAHOGANY CHINA CLOSET,TABLE,JAPANESE LAMP,DESK AND SETTEE.  I MISSED BUYING THE STAINLESS STEEL SIDE BY SIDE REFRIGERATOR FOR $250.  IT SOLD.EARLY.
                                            THIS EVENING WE'LL SEE WHO WINS THE WORLD SERIES.- THE TEXAS RANGERS WHO HAVE NEVER WON AND THE ST. LOUIS CARDINALS WHO HAVE WON SEVERAL TIMES.  THE RANGERS WHO USED TO BE THE SENATORS BEFORE THEY MOVED TO TEXAS 40 YEARS AGO, LET THE CARDINALS CATHCH UP IN THE NINTH INNING AND WIN IN THE 11TH.
                                                 THE EYES OF TEXAS ARE UPON THEM TONIGHT.  THE GAME DIDN'T GET OVER UNTIL 12:30 AM.  WHAT WOULD OPRAH DO = WWOD.  SHE NEVER MARRIED OR HAD CHILDREN.  SHE HAD A MISCARRIAGE WHEN SHE WAS 14.  SHE HAD AN INCESTUOUS RELATIONSHIP WITH HER UNCLE OR SOME RELATIVE.  SHE AND HER DIVORCED FRIEND GAYLE TRAVEL TOGETHER.  OPRAH HAS A TALL GOODLOOKING BOYFRIEND STEDMAN.  OPRAH IS FAT EVEN THOUGH SHE'S LOST WEIGHT  A ZILLION TIMES.  SHE WON AN ACASDEMY AWARD AND NOW HER OWN TELEVISION NETWORK. 

INDIAN RIVER-TITUSVILLE

                                   SO THIS IS FOR COLORED GIRLS WHO CONSIDERED SUICIDE WHEN THE RAINBOW WAS ENOUGH.  PS I PUT UP A SIGN TELLING THE GOLFERS AND MAINTENANCE  CREW TO STOP PARKING BY OUR BACK DOOR.  WE DON'T PARK BY THEIRS.

VAN GOGH

                        A VIBRANT BRIGHT LIGHT OF ORANGE AND YELLOW NOW FLASHES IN MY DULL BLAND,BEIGE LIVINGROOM.  IT'SA COPY I PAINTED OF VINCENT VAN GOGH'S STARRY NIGHT FROM THE MOMA BROCHURE.  I ALSO DID A FALL FOLIAGE PAINTING OF THE CASCADES IN WASHINGTON.  THAT WAS ORIGINAL.  MY VAN GOGH IS A FAKE BUT FUN. 
                           SO COLOR BRIGHTENS AS WINTER APPROACHES.  WE ARE HEADING SOUTH WHERE PALM TREES SWAY AND FLOWERS BLOOM ALL YEAR.  THAT'S WHAT GAUGIN DID AFTER VAN GOGH BIT OFF HIS OWN EAR.  GAUGIN HEADED FOR TAHITI.  WE ARE OFF TO FLORIDA WHERE REDNECKS RULE AND ALLIGATORS CRAWL.
