Saved By Squash

 
We know our pioneers have been saved by squash.
It is very easy to grow and lasts a long time.
In those days people had to make a lot of sacrifices for others and
they still do today as Helga's Diary shows.
A DIARY Found ON A CRUISE SHIP
DEAR DIARY - DAY 1
All packed for the cruise -- all my nicest dresses, swimsuits, short sets. I'm so excited!.
Our local Blue Hat Chapter planned this "all-girls" trip.
This is  my first     one, - and I can't wait!
         --------------------------------------------------------------
DEAR DIARY - DAY 2
AHHH! The sea is so beautiful!
  Saw whales and dolphins. 
The Captain seems like a very nice man.
He's CUTE!
         --------------------------------------------------------------
DEAR DIARY - DAY 3
Pool, swimming, today as well as shuffleboard and hit golf balls off  the deck. 
 Got invitation to sit at Captains' table
 Felt honored and enjoyed dinner. He is very attractive and attentive.
         ----------------------------------------------------------
DEAR DIARY - DAY 4
Won $800.00 in the ship's casino. Yeay!
Was invited to Captains' Cabin for dinner.
Dinner devine with caviar and champagne.
 He asked me but Isaid no to staying the night
 I was faithful to my husband.
         --------------------------------------------------------------
DEAR DIARY - DAY 5
Pool again today. 
Sunburn.
  Sat inside inside and drank at piano-bar all dayday.
 Captain saw me, bought  me several large drinks. 
Really is quite charming. Again asked me to visit his cabin for the night. 
Again I said no.
  He told me, if I  did not let him have his way with me, he would sink the ship..
. I was speechless...
         --------------------------------------------------------------
DEAR DIARY - DAY 6
Today I saved 2600 lives.
Thrice.

  1. Oh, uh, dear! Poor you, put in a situation where you had to save all those lives. Valiant effort, overall.

    I understand those things happen with a surprising frequency on ships. When will you be taking your next voyage?

  4. I just love all the different textures, colors, patterns and shapes of the beautiful squash at the farmer's market. They just beg to be painted. I can't wait to see your new work. Carolina
