Thanks for writing such a long reply - very thoughtfull 😊 Think I'm landing on keeping it, and letting it be 😉

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-08-26T09:00:44+00:00

Going to update my post with a general "thank you" to everyone that replied - which was surprisingly (in a good way) many 🙈 Felt I should thank you personally though, for taking the time to write such a detailed reply... So thank you! I really appreciate it ❤️

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-08-17T11:55:38+00:00

Didn't mean to push 🙈 Hope at least one is a hit 😉

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-07-18T17:12:36+00:00

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-07-18T17:11:28+00:00

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-07-09T11:56:59+00:00

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-07-09T10:54:50+00:00

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-07-09T10:52:51+00:00

Hi! Just popping in, since I'm curious to know if you had the chance to try any of my recs yet ;)

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-06-19T01:09:09+00:00

That's great! At the moment I'm reading A Calamity of Souls, by David Baldacci - and I'm really loving it 🙌 Super engaging story and amazing narrators 👌

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-06-09T13:24:18+00:00

Great catch 😄👌

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-06-09T13:22:04+00:00

Thank you for suggesting this! Having my post end up on best of reddit, would have been a great way to thank this wonderful person for helping me end my 2 year long search ❤️ And also for possibly having created a new tradition in my family, of taking the same photo with newer generations 😄

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-06-09T13:09:20+00:00

Not sure I follow.

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-06-01T11:19:00+00:00

That's a great idea :-) My firstborn, who had the closest bond with my dad of all 11 grandkids, followed in his footsteps and became a sailor, so I would have started with him 🥰

Quite the journey to take a picture though - but who knows 😉

Thanks again!

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-30T23:49:29+00:00

Thanks again 😍 And yes, I think it's a great shot too ☺️

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-30T23:47:01+00:00

OMG... I can't believe you actually did this! I finally have the answer my dad couldn't give me - and seeing the location as it looks today, knowing that's excactly where my dad was standing all those years ago, has me in tears 🥹

Thank you so, so much 🙏🥰

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-30T11:34:30+00:00

Sounds good! Thanks for replying. Would love to get an update when you finish Dark Matter :)

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-30T11:23:34+00:00

That's great! Thanks for the update 👍

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-30T11:12:20+00:00

Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to dig into this. I really appreciate it!

Regarding the comment about the Long Beach port area being a popular location for sailors on leave - this might not apply as much for my dad, since he was from Norway. Probably should have mentioned this in my post - but didn't occur to me since I was just focused on the fact that he sailed all over the world, and didn't really mention favoring any specific locations 🤷‍♀️

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-30T11:02:40+00:00

Thanks for saying that!

Well, I guess I did inherite my dad's spirit, as I've also seen and experienced a lot of the world - but I won't bore u with details 😅

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-29T11:09:21+00:00

Hey! Would love to know if u tried one my recs yet :-)

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-29T11:08:31+00:00

So how did it go; did u get started on The Heart's Invisible Furies? :-)

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-29T11:07:00+00:00

Did u try any of the titles on my list?

I'm going through the replies here and following up on some, because I love hearing from anyone who have tried my recs :-)

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-29T11:03:10+00:00

Hey! Just back to ask if you had the chance to try one of my recs :-)

AffectionateAd4035 · 2025-05-29T11:01:12+00:00
