Good Morning, Everyone…🦦THERE OTTER BE A LAW🦦
🎶 Give me the beat boys, and free my soul…I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and DRIFT AWAY…🎶 “Drift Away” – Dobie Gray (original release) 1972 https://tinyurl.com/49y4c6tp
🦦One’s FATHER introduced them, AHEAD of things back then,
There was something that just told him they’d surely be fast friends…
But one then took a POWDER, it seemed that he just QUILT,
(OH…sorry for the typo…it’s quit I meant…with guilt)
But our two otters here today are so far from their start…
Seems time and tide have caused them to slowly DRIFT APART…🦦
Always one thing or the OTTER, right? 🤷🏻♀️
So…Today we find ourselves aDRIFT on a lake somewhere…and we meet two Sea Otters…. https://tinyurl.com/mryw66kh …Otter Getgoing, and who was once his closest friend, Otter Beonmyway. What came between them, we just don’t know… But from our dialogue, and the cartoon showing them DRIFTING on the water, it’s obvious that they began to SEA OTTER people…Sad, really. I suppose there’s STOAT many reasons for the demise of their close friendship, but that may be a puzzle for an OTTER day. Right now, all we can SEA is that they’ve been APART, and this chance meeting doesn’t seem to have mended any fences. But one can’t help but wonder if they OTTER know better. A good friend is like no OTTER, and there really OTTER be a law against them being allowed to DRIFT APART…https://tinyurl.com/39yxwkc6 …But as for our solve? We FLOATED right through this easy, breezy one in no TIDE at all…
Jeff’s💎Gems? The looks on their faces. It seems like the one at left looks forlorn, while the OTTER looks more animated. I guess it’s beCLAWS the one at left probably didn’t opt for ending the friendship…it abSTOATlutely must be the OTTER one. And of course, the OTTER gem is the clincher…Look closely and you’ll SEA the Signature Sinking Sailboat way off in the distance…DRIFTING AWAY…
So…There you have it, Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And this puzzle reminds me of my friend, who became obsessed with otters, and wanted to get one. We all told him that that wasn’t possible, since they’re not suitable to be kept as pets. But he swore he could do it, with some sort of wizardry. To here him tell it, he was on the lookout for Harry POTTER…And this is why with his STREAM of consciousness, he’s destined to hit ROCK BOTTOM one of these days…🦦🙋🏻♀️
👭🏻After they completed the POWDER blue QUILT, the FATHER told his two daughters that a good way to never DRIFT APART would be to stay AHEAD of things in life…like continuing to share the same hobbies…👭🏻
❤️ The young girl had an old QUILT that her FATHER had passed down,
She freshened it with POWDER, to keep the shade of brown
So far she felt AHEAD with it…it was dear to her heart…
And the memory of Dad and it…must never DRIFT APART…❤️
👬🏻 You start getting friendly one day,
And the years then start to drift away..,
But with friendship real true,
You remain def true blue…
And assure nothing gets in the way…👬🏻
2️⃣And to keep friendship close to one’s heart,
Takes two that must stick to their part…
Making sure things stay tight,
And that both do what’s right…
Just the way it was back at the start…2️⃣
🤷🏻♂️But time and tide wait for no man,
And sometimes things just don’t go as planned…
You grow older and see,
That it’s not always “we”…
Though the friendship no flash in the pan…🤷🏻♂️
🦦And today we’re seeing what becomes,
Of a friendship that went on the run,
Our two otters let go,
And then went with the flow…
And allowed things to end up humdrum…🦦
😥So we see that they’re bidding adieu,
To a closeness no longer pursued…
After all the good years,
It’s that current appeared…
And left things no more me and you…😥
…AND IN OTHER WORDS…🔠🙋🏻♀️

I got all the anagrams and the jumble was right there with just two words the first one DRIFT came right out ! And aWAY was right there left ! And your song , Angela is one of my favorite and was perfect for yjis jumble ! This week is going great and I can’t wait to see tomorrow’s with no hump to get over ! Great week and great post !!!!
Tks, Jim…but it’s not Drift Away, it’s Drift Apart…🦦🙋🏻♀️
I know , I can’t change it for fear of it being deleted ! But yes thank you !
👍🏻🙋🏻♀️
It’s very often the way
You’re friends for many a day
But times do change
Things rearrange
And somehow you drift away.
Helen
🤷🏻♂️Yes, life sometimes gets in the way,
Because of mundane day to day..,
But work can be done,
Just like when begun…
To keep things from going astray…🤷🏻♂️
👬🏻It’s sad to see a friendship end,
Sometimes because someone won’t bend…
That’s why it’s tres smart,
To both do their part…
To see that people remain friends…👬🏻
👍🏻 It might be too late for these two,
As was said they are bidding adieu…
But a lesson be learned,
Real friendship is earned…
And hopefully lasts all life through…👍🏻
See my thoughts below.

Pretty easy Jumble with words solved. Cute little animals, aren’t they ?? Terry
Had all the anagrams solved but really didn’t need the letters as the cartoon was a quick near obvious blind solve. Chuck
Good morning. Fun, easy Jumble today. I can’t believe that I missed the sinking sailboat. I know to look for it when there is water in the cartoon. Thanks for pointing that out Angela. Well, I Otter Get Going ! Have a great day. Thanks, Stan
YW, Stan…And yes, 😂…you OTTER look closer next time! 🦦🙋🏻♀️
Sometimes you just have to accept the inevitable, that not all friendships will or can endure, especially if people move. I recently came upon the e-mail address online of a friend of quite a few years ago. I had moved, she had always stayed at the same address. I thought she would be delighted to hear from me as we had been partners in a tennis league for several years. When I suggested we meet, I could see that she really had little recollection of me. She was to contact me for second get together but never did. I just had to accept that it was not a friendship for the ages, but great at the time.

It is especially difficult to maintain friendships if what you had in common no longer exists. Sad, but a fact of life.
