Memorial Day Pics!!

Ok the moment everybody has been anticipating, I got the software yesterday and here are the Memorial Day pics. The house that John and Kel bought is in Roxbury New York. A very tiny upstate town, seriously, blink and you'll miss it. I spent Thanksgiving up there and it was lovely. We had a foot or more of snow, the coldest beer and killer sledding. The house sits on the side of a mountain, the big news when we got there-they paved the access road (before it was just dirt with some axle bending holes). There's a pond with fish, frogs and salamanders. It's spring fed and the water is so clear you can see down to the bottom. It really is heaven on earth.

My Battle Beetle sandwiched between my brother-in-alcohol's Benz and Porche-yeah baby-I fit in! Feel the awesome power of The Beetle and be afraid, very afraid!

My nephew-dog Clancy-he's a Field Spaniel

Clancy sez, "Lookit how big my jowls are."

My brother in law waiving frantically for more beer.

View out my bedroom window.

My favorite room.


My Brother-in-alcohol-John; baby sister Kel, niece Mary and nephew Sam.

My sleeping companion, Pumpkin the kitten sayin', "Why'd you wake me up beeeiotch?" He's the newest addition to my sister's family and refused to leave my side.

    Hey I tried to find your blog, did you take it down?????????

    Oh God the date was a disaster. I've put myself back on the shelf for the time being. No more men-folk for me for a long long long time.

  5. Thanks PGH, glad you enjoyed the pics. The trip was a lot of fun lol although I would not recomend trying to get out of a row boat after consuming massive amounts of alcohol lol I ended up losing my balance and falling in the drink so to speak lol thank God no one had a camera at the time.

    Yeah John and Kel have done very well for themselves and have some mighty fine toys. I love my Bug and giggled uncontrollably when I saw how he parked the cars in the driveway. Sorta like which vechile doesn't belong in the picture?

  6. Yes, with the grace of a drunken gazelle I sploshed into the pond. I surfaced, coated in mud to the hysterical laughter of my hammered sister and brother-in-law. You've gotta have a thick hide in my family.

  8. Thanks SB, I'll get over the emotional trauma eventually lol

    RO-yeah Pumpkin is a charmer. There will be a new addition to my household soon. I was hoping to get a dog but because my apartment is so small I've decided to adopt a kitten. He/She should be here by the end of the month. It's nice having a friendly face to come home to, helps keep the lonelys away.

  9. AWWWW Rowan, it's OK. I'm working through my own bout of the blues right now. You're never alone. There are some very positive things about being on your own. lol OK I'm at a loss I can't think of anything at the moment. SB does have some good points.

  11. Ro, I wouldn't feel right charging you. It's a gift that was given to me so I pass it along whenever I can. I'll need your DOB, place and time of birth. Gimme a couple of days and I can e mail you a report. Um I'm trying to figure out how I can get my e mail addy to you without being spammed into the next century.
