QOTD for September 2023

The following quotation is from An Echo In The Bone by Diane Gabaldon. Copyright 2010 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 25 The Bosom Of The Deep


May 15, 1777


My dears,

I hate boats. I despise them with the utmost fiber of my being. And yet I find myself once more launched upon the dreadful Bosom of the Sea, aboard a craft known as the Tranquil Teal, from which Absurdity you may deduce the grim Whimsy of her Captain. This Gentleman is a smuggler of mixed Race, evil Countenance, and low Humor, who tells me, straight-faced, that his name is Trustworthy Roberts.


Poor Jamie - I sympathize with his motion sickness. Car rides are iffy, whale watches definitely call for Dramamine.

[> Me too! Car rides - only by a window, NO READING. Was stupid enough to go on a deep sea fishing trip - threw up for four hours. Every time I read about his nausea I feel it to my core. 🤢 -- Kathy in PA, Mon, September 04 2023, 3:52:25

[> [> I'm okay if I'm driving but not if my husband is. Our annual trip to New Hampshire, up and down the White Mountains, is totally a challange. -- kgp, Mon, September 04 2023, 9:08:09
