See You Later, Alligator?

 ​     Bill Haley and His Comets have helped my grandkids and me say goodbye to each other through the classic hit “See You Later, Alligator.” From their inspiration, we developed phrases we choose from:
     Sayonara, dinosaura. Adios, galapagos. Caio, cow. Adieu, cockatoo. Au revoir, blue macaw. Arrivederci, cassowary. Outta here, little deer. Toodle-oo, caribou. Bye bye, butterfly. Stand tall, narwal. Hang loose, mongoose. Keep the peace, wildebeest.
     Here are some you can complete: Hasta la vista, (animal). Aloha, (animal), and Nice to know ya, (animal).
​     “Adieu” and “adios” are my favorites because they mean "I bless you as you go with God.” I send that thought your way as I let my my blogging pen rest. It’s been my privilege to share thoughts with you, and I’ve loved hearing yours. I’m not sure whether I’m saying “farewell, gazelle,” or “after a while, crocodile.”
     So I’ll close with “that’s all folks, until this frog croaks.” Enjoy Haley’s famous song, and don’t we wish we could dance like that!

Well, I’ve so enjoyed your thoughtful, helpful blogs. So I’m a bit sad to see you lay down your keyboard, but I certainly understand. I’m sure the irrepressible writer in you will pop up somewhere in the future and when that happens, be sure to include me. For now, go well friend...
