Oh, The Wonder of It All

Oh yes, indeed we know
That people will find a way to go,
No matter what the man said
And love is fine for all we know
For all we know our love will grow
- that's what the man said
So won't you listen to what the man said.

Listen to What the Man Said, lyrics by Paul McCartney


Once, when Dave and I had known each other only a short time, he came to visit me on his birthday.  Wanting to impress him, I took him to dinner at a new restaurant on Park Avenue called Luma.  That was about five years ago.  We usually walk past that restaurant at least once or twice a week.  Always on Saturdays on our way to Rollins College and beyond.

But we've never been back to Luma.  It's kinda swanky - and not really "us."  I was just trying to impress Dave that first time.  I now know what he really likes.

Today for lunch we had mashed potatoes topped with Campbell's Chunky Sirloin Burger Soup.

But guess who was in Luma a few evenings ago?  Paul McCartney!  He and his fiance were in town to visit her son who goes to Rollins. 

Oh, the wonder of it all, baby.
