The Beast's Castle...

Stopped by before I head out for the weekend to replace the bowl of strawberries I ate the other day 😋 here are some fresh from a local farm "Jersey Fresh" enjoy 🌹
Sorry picture size is to large and I have to run but please know they are very good and worthy of my Castle friends and Lord 🌹
Thank you kindly.
 
But I need to refresh now too.
*strips and sits down at the pool edge, refreshing tired feet for a while, before dropping down in the water for a slow, leisurely swim around the pool before getting uo again*

The day is so warm that even wet skin doesn't shiver in the breeze!
 
Hmm, time to take a break from offline and go for an evening swim! No Lord seen around but I guess he's here nevertheless...
*strips on the same lounger as always, and wades in the pool, making a little silent shimmy show for him*
 
A couple days ago I was watching a documentary about Gordon Lightfoot titled, "If You Could Read My Mind." He was not an artist on my radar growing up, although I had heard The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald enough that I knew the lyrics. This song from the title got stuck in my head, and I looked for it on YouTube because those haunting lyrics would not leave my head. When I heard the first verse of the song in its entirety, I thought, "Damn. This could totally be @HeavyBalls's theme song!" Not only is Gordon Lightfoot a Canadian national treasure, but those lyrics...

In a castle dark, or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me.
and later,
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me.


I think I had heard a disco cover of the song; the original came out the year I was born, and I'm pretty old now...
