    Do you go to the Zoo often Lisa?  I know zebra can be nasty but that one looks like I could just hug him.  The baby giraffe too.

    Anyone seen or heard from Faith?  Where are you Faith?

    Good Sunday afternoon Escapees :)  Hope all of you are winding down a great weekend. The pics are beautiful.

    Checkum.....now I REALLY want to go to Nantucket. I've heard about it for years, but seeing those pics makes me want to be there in real life.

    JO----just be looking in your next suitcase, 'cause I met just stow away. It sounds like we enjoy some of the same places......Ozarks, Smokeys, Quartet music....Just make sure your suitcase is big enough for me, ok?  :)

    Sharon.....I hope you're feeling better today. I think you passed it down here 'cause today I can hardly talk!! Everything has settled in my throat today,.........uuggghhhhh I'm sure that's more than you wanted to hear, but :)

    hehe Barbe.....flower? I wonder what is really is? I don't think our climate could grow anything like that. It almost looks artificial.....like something that would go in a big aquarium or something. By the way....I'm still loving the avatar!!!

    Faaaaaathhiiiieeeeee!!! It's time to come home for suuuuppppeerrrrrr!!!!!!!!  You've been away from the boards for way too long now. I'm sure the hives are starting to break out all over your body:)

    I suppose this is a site from India.......

    Ooh yeah,  That suitcase will work. I have some from many years ago that I loved....The Florida Boys, The blackwood Brothers, Bill Gauthier and the Gauthier Vocal Band, The Hinson's a loooongg time ago. I was just raised up on these guys.Never get tired of hearing music like that. So, pack me up when you're leaving. I'll be real quiet :)

    This Saturday we're leaving for Branson, so I'll get to hear a few groups next week too.

    JO  I have seen the  Shepherd of the Hills several times. It's always better than the time before. It's really cool down in those thar mountains, so you have to bring a blanket or a heavy coat. It just brings us back in time. SSSSSSSsoooooooo neat though!

    I'm popping some antibiotics so I'll be well by Saturday.....praypray pray  :)

    Good luck with your appt. Checkum.  How has the incision done over the weekend?  Your good wishes must have worked because I finally feel human this morning although my voice stills sounds like crap.  I wonder how Coonie is feeling?  Sorry you caught my cold Coonie.........you'd better BE better for this weekend.

    Could they take him farther up the creek and take his 'furniture' (read "nest" or whatever) with them so he doesn't have to come back? He could think of it as a summer home and maybe forget about living under your shed by fall? hehehehhe

    Laughing at 'your' resident groundhog.  I'm sitting here watching a preggers little red squirrel in my sunflower feeder.  I almost have to go out and shake the feeder before she moves.  Even the dog (big dog) just lies there and looks at her.  She's pretty cute but if she gets in to my attic I'll be singing a different song.  Hahaha, just put the dog out on the deck with the feeder.  She's now sitting in the tree giving him heck!!!!   He wants in.........theres snow out there.

    Hello to all the escapees!!! Hope everyone has started their week off great!

    (((((((((((((((checkum)))))))))))) hope the appointment goes ok. We'll be thinking of you today!

    I'm so sorry for Slonedeb's passing. She encouraged so many on the boards. She will be missed greatly!

    Ok.........here's a little something for all of you who are getting snow.......our weather is acting a little weird too, but we don't have snow. There are flowers everywhere and the trees are green, but it's windy and highs today are only 50 degrees. bbrrrrrrrr

    Mrs. Red Squirrel looks like this.........only fatter.

    Come to think of it, maybe she's fat from my sunflower seeds and not from babies.Wink  No, it's babies.
