    I'm coming to MI to present one of my workshops on Dec. 1st. Will drive up the day before. Let's all get together...... I'd love that.

    I usually give the head's up on the MI thread & a bunch of us have met for lunch in the past.

    Arnie. The wedding is now just a few weeks away: Sun, Oct 4th. So while our Nebraska-gal is walking for the cure...... we'll be walking to the gazebo.

    I think I have in fact decided what to wear, but that's kind of a wack-doodle story, that I'll tell ya when I have time.

    Today's been a red-letter, bittersweet day. We sold our boat. We decided that we are not "boating" people. So after 3 summers of fun, we waved farewell.

    We just got back from putting the motorcycle into it's winter storage -- till next summer.

    I can't believe I get choked up about a motorcycle being parked. LOL.

    Thank heavens WB & the babeez await at the other end. With Saint's stop over in the middle!!

    Out to dinner now.

    Happy escape.

    We sold our 39' power boat when it got to $750 to fill the gas tank!

    We sold our motorcycles to get stainless steel appliances years ago...sigh.

    checkum,

    you are so right ! those teeny newborns are adorable ! The photographer is from our area. I'll have to tell our kids about her, we have two expecting next year.

    I have to tell you why my hand is in such a freaky position in the pic above at the zoo, Grandpa had been in the pic with the boys and the kids wanted me in it. well when I walked up to the gorilla Carter thought I was coming to get him off and started to fuss when I didn't. So I was poking him to tickle so he would cry in the picture.

    Everyone have a great week-end, we will be leaving for Chicago later this afternoon.

    Blessings all around, peaceful week-end thoughts to you also

    Paula

    Hi all, had a great time at my grand nieces first birthday party, also got to see my other grand nieces and nephews, my boys tell me a long time before I get grand kids so my sister shares hers!!  Hope to post some pictures later.  The weather here in michigan continues to be great but a little rain would be nice!  Picked apples, pears, and a few plums this week.  The tomaotoes are starting to ripen finally so hope to can some salsa mid week. 

    Arnie will be in GreekTown Wednsday a girlfriend and fellow BC survivor wants to go for her birthday so 7 or 8 of us are taking a bus tour down, will probably get on the People Mover and go to the Ren Center too.  Hope all are having a good weekend.

    Have fun, Checkum.  Those are my plans for today too.  It poured all day yesterday so we didn't get to go out.  I know it puts me in a good mood and hope it does the same for you!

    So we're driving across Indiana, on the freeway. Going the speed limit, well sorta.

    I happen to look up when this white car goes zipping past.

    I'm yelling & squaking at my hubby, "GO GET THAT CAR!!!"

    Meanwhile, digging in my purse for my camera.

    I don't think we had to go more than 75 miles per hour to catch this shot:

    If you look closely you can see that the car is actually from OH and they are HOCKEY fans of our professional team: Columbus Blue Jackets.

    So I guess there's more than one context for "CHK EM?"

    Hope everyone has a great escape this week -- ya just never know what's gonna turn up next!!
