Ooh ee. Darling Mr A. Hope he’s well. He’s nicely lit. Just a little set of rocks really jutting out from the water?

  He looks good in just about any lighting. Well…at least to hear him tell it.

  I always like when something (or someone) is out at this time of evening to take advantage of the sunset lighting.

That looks like the perfect thing to do in those conditions. I wish I could float like that.

  He has the right idea, that’s for sure. While we are all running around like lunatics he enjoys a calm float in some nice cool water. Smart guy.

Quite the handsome Mr. A going for a golden swim…I bet his head is getting just as big as Ted’s by now.
