Sure did. I'll send my laundry for you to wash. Just keep the sand, and send back the clothes folded please.

Katie,

 

How about posting some pics of the weekend festivities in the forum neighbourhood thread so we can see how well you clean up.

 

Have fun at the wedding.

Phil,

 

That's funny you should request this....I just bought a new digital camera, with a printer (the kodak one) So I plan to take that with me. however, my sister is very upset with me for getting a little too much sun this past weekend , so if I'm not too red-faced I will post some pics

 

I'm planning on having a great time!

[Philcott]

Katie,

 

Were you wearing sunglasses? Do you have raccoon eyes? Good luck and enjoy the weekend.

Phil,

 

Fortunately I did not wear any glasses, so it doesn't look too bad! My face is starting to peel, by Saturday I should be in pretty good shape. But I'll let you know how things go! Say a prayer for my new brother-in-law, he has to live with my sister!! I feel for him

[Philcott]

Poor unsuspecting soul. Is she that bad?

Jack,

Unfortunatly I have to wait till December to take my real vacation.

We will be flying to New Orleans and staying there for 3 days.

(I dare someone to try to "pick-pocket" me.)

I don't believe that I wouldn't feel it!!

 

Then we will depart on a 7 day Western Caribbean cruise to the Mexican Islands.

Cant wait!

 

BTW,if anyone here is a fly-by nighter,I invite you to join us.

There is still plenty of rooms available on the ship.

Royal Caribbean of course.

 

Jack,enjoy your well deserved vacation with the people you love most....

Your family.

Katie,

Are you sure you didn't throw the wrong switch in the office and create a large flash, thus getting flash burn? How are things up there?

Still waiting on my CD. Hope all is going well.

Vacation.... ya right have my two grandaughters down 1yr and 3yr went to the zoo , they are here for 2 weeks, not sure if I will live through this.

Just got back from a week long stay at the Outer Banks of NC.

[Katie Wakeford from Barefoot CNC]

Phil,

 

She can be really sweet, but she's very blunt. While she was in college (5 1/2 years) she went through 5 roommates...no one has been able to live with her before, not even myself! We didn't even get along until she moved out to go to school. But he's a tough guy, and my mom has already told her that if they get a divorce, she is keeping Ricky, and my sister can be his parents daughter!

 

Don,

 

Just to let you know, I'm not playing with the switches upstairs anymore Now you will have to blame your computer problems on someone else. We are staying busy, I have Sam back out on the road, and Jimmy finishing some jobs up. I will put your cd in UPS today, I may have to get Jimmy to burn it for me. Enjoy your grandkids!

One thing I like to warn friends about when going to The Big Easy is a scam they do on the street. Some one will come up to you and say, "hey man, I bet you $20.00 I can tell you where you got them shoes". You will, of course, think to yourself how the f*** could he possibly know where I got my shoes and agree to the bet. He will then say, "you got them on your feet, right here in New Orleans." Thats when his buddies appear from no where, laugh and say, "he's right, you got them on your feet."

 

I made the best of a bad situation and was able to walk away with a smile on my face. I reached into my wallet and handed over a nice crisp $20.00 CANADIAN bill. At the time it was worth barely $10.00 US. The look on his face was worth the $20.00. Scam the scammer.

 

Phil

[Philcott]

Bump.

 

Katie,

 

Did you make it back from your sisters wedding ok? Didn't peel too much? How about overindulging?

Fishing for Black Drum in Port Aransas, Texas.

 

Skunked again...

 

Caught a nice red snapper though. Of course, they were out of season then...

 

It was a good time anyway.

The wife and I plan to do some open air motoring thru the Black Hills and Badlands of South Dakota. Top down, Tunes up, Shades on and motoring down the back roads for a week to see all the historical sites.

Phil,

The first thing that is gonna happen when some looser aproaches me to say anything,is:

 

Get the F*** outta my face!!!

Then collecting any money on their part will take a little effort.

I honestly have zero tolorence for B/S....

 

Thanks for the tip!

[Frank]

Just got back from a week at Ocean City Maryland......camping. It was a much needed vacation.

[Code_Breaker]

vacation????

 

How about 8 relatives--6 from TN and 2 from TX. All under my roof for 11 days . . . thanks God they didn't bring the dogs.

 

And another THANK GOD I have to work and NOT spend a lot of time with them.

Code Breaker: News Flash - That's NOT a vacation . Probably punishment for something you did in a past life.

Ahhh....Summer vacation ended a week ago . I took a camping trip to the panhandle of Idaho and camped wit da bears.. Beautiful country...I didnt realize that at one time, there was a naval base in Idaho..During the 40's...Amazing...Lived here all my life and never knew that!...I will be back next year...Maybe a trip to Canada would be in order too.

[Camdude®]

[Philcott]

My family and a few friends will spend a week playing in some rivers north of us. We will do some tubing, fishing, swimming, hiking, guitar playing, shooting, and going to a music festival. Should be a good week, especially if the weather cooperates.

Phil,

 

Made it back okay, it was a very nice wedding. The preacher talked way too long for me to stand in 3 inch heels! I forgot the wedding pic cd at home, but hopefully will have some time to post the pics up. My shoulders were the only thing peeling at the time, but a lot of lotion solved that problem 2 days after the wedding my arms looked like a snake shedding skin. Sorry for the delay in the reply, just running by some old threads, and saw your reply. Oh and the food was awesome...she had a pasta station, meat station, and veggie station. I never saw the cake, but I did see everyone eating it! My mom planned to have 2 huge buckets of breyers ice cream that my sister didn't know about, which was needed since it was about 95 outside! I didn't get a piece of the cake,and my mom brought the rest of the ice cream home. I had to make the rounds and talk to all the family and friends. I believe Helen and Ricky just came back from their honeymoon on Monday! I'll post some pics up soon though! Thanks for asking!
