Thanks Becky!

I'm up early.... no one else up yet.

2Jedismom, WNeighbor, RMDupree and Overtaxed are here, still asleep.

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

Didn't expect a reply from you this early:). Excited???

Since your here can you tell me, if your webcam is off does it just show a black screen or is it not coming in on our computer??? I've checked a few times, but never get anything.

I've been over in the HH looking at your pictures:). Looks like fun. How long is everyone staying?

Becky

[HairOfTheDog]

Yes, the webcam is still off.... the black screen you see is the last image that was loaded when it was left on last time, after dark. If you can see that, I bet it's working for you.

I expect they'll turn it back on up there this morning.

Everyone is here at least through Sunday, some are staying another day or two after that.

Excited, yes! - And looking forward to looking back on it.... if you get my meaning ;~D

I am uncomfortable attracting everyone to watch ~me~. I've never been on the princess plan ;~D

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

I think weddings kind of take away inhibitions at least for the day:). Kind of like having babies takes a way a womans modesty for awhile. You just really don't care who is looking, just as long as the job gets done :)

Oh, forgot, I will then try to catch the wedding, but I do have a friend coming to ride, but with the time difference I should be able to. What time will it be here? I can never keep straight what the difference is.

Becky

[HairOfTheDog]

Should be two o clock your time... ;~D

I think the saddle club thread is starting to feel like a step child:)

I've been checking in everyday on the HH....when are we going to get to see pictures from everyone. I saw Bears.
Looks like it was a beautiful day:)

We have been very busy. Mack has been doing alot of renovating on the commercial property/building he bought. Painting, roofing, etc. So I have to run to town everyday to see the progress. He has my camera. I'm going to get it from him to take some pictures of Reba tonight. I want to see if you all think she has improved any. The guy that owns her will see her Thrus when she gets her shoes. I am not going to ride her till then anymore. She is getting very very ouchy the more I ride her. But I think what I have done has made some improvements. She doesn't look as overweight.

I also have eggs hatching today. I had 57 in the incubator:). They weren't due till tomorrow but seem to be doing ok, so I guess that's not a problem. Hopefully with as many as I am going to have now, I can some rasied to laying size before the coyotes can eat them all:(. Actually it's been a long time since I lost one, so I may land up with more eggs than I know what to do with. LOL...feast or famine.

Gosh Becky! I should have pinged y'all to the posts from the last few days, I've been in a state of sensory overload with all these folks here!

Everyone who was here is only just now getting home. Some will be posting digital pics, some had regular film that has to be developed. ALso, we will have a time lapse gif of all the webcam images which is really campy-neat. ecurbh is working on it now. Did you see any of it on the webcam?

We have a few pics, but we don't have our official ones from the photographer yet. Bear's are probably some of the better ones we have yet, but I have the ones that various people took with my camera!

Did you see when the plane came? NO ONE knew about that.... I kept the secret, all the freepers and family there didn't know what was goin' on when the plane landed, till it pulled up on the beach!

I'll be around tonight to see pics of the newer, thinner Reba!

[CindyDawg]

Hey married lady. I was wondering when you were going to show up :') You were a beautiful bride.

[HairOfTheDog]

I might have been a prettier bride at 20 years old and less pounds... but ecurbh wasn't around then.... I do the best I can with what's given me!

[ecurbh]

You were a beautiful bride.

Yes, she sure was (and is)!! ~sigh~

[AnAmericanMother]

Gorgeous pics! You had a perfect day!

Float plane departure is excessively cool!

Post more!

[CindyDawg]

I didn't get to see the web cam. I was on the road. Did you fly yall out?

[HairOfTheDog]

We will when we have more pics! ecurbh will probably post a web page when we get the official pics back.

[HairOfTheDog]

And thanks! - It was a perfect day!

[HairOfTheDog]

Yeah - we did.... float plane took us away on a scenic flight, and then to a neat little bed and breakfast about five miles away ;~D

But no one knew where we were going, or that we were even leaving at all, 'cept my dad, who came up with this wild idea. This was his finest hour!

[AnAmericanMother]

Well, it doesn't compare with the HOTD/ecurbh nuptials, but here's what Shelley and I were doing while y'all were getting hitched:

All the novice dogs at the hunt test . . .

Shelley cooling off.

Her first retrieve of a (very dead) bird.

"Hey! You threw it away - why do you want it back?" (She did give it back after brief negotiations.)

[HairOfTheDog]

"Hey! You threw it away - why do you want it back?"

LOL! - How'd she do?

[CindyDawg]

How romantic:') What a thoughtful dad.
