Hi, Es!
Can you think of anything we've forgotten?
Sixty million miles is a long distance to be away from your favorite Teddy Bear.

Waitjustaminutehere!

Do we have any shallows near the moat? Can't make new bagpipe reeds without some arundo donax growing nearby...

[EsmeraldaA]

Ehh......mmmmm

The thing is.....
I haven't been following the thread (not really).
I saw something about Ice Cream and beverages (I think it was).
Just in case, I'm bringing white wine Champagne chocolate and all kind of berries.

Hi back!

[timpad]

Sort of a Renaissance Fair with a spectacular view!

[timpad]

Darks said there was a Yeti sunbathing down there last night. Something tells me they're not great swimmers, so I'll bet there's wading depth around...

[NicknamedBob]

We've got a swampy area to the left as you exit the castle gates.

I'm fairly certain there are no poisonous snakes.

[NicknamedBob]

Most berries we should have. We're growing a lot of food.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed about the chocolate.

[NicknamedBob]

Darks' vision at night is not to be trusted.

He couldn't tell a Yeti from a Sasquatch without smelling them first.

Still, the outside banks are sloped and vegetated, enjoy your nature quest.

[EsmeraldaA]

Well, I am thinking about what I like the most. So...

It will be very dark chocolate and I like Strawberries, Cherries Boysenberries and Blackberries for the wine and Champagne.
Maybe I will add some Tangerines to make some special Mimosas.

[timpad]

couldn't tell a Yeti from a Sasquatch

Important in this context, since I hear Sasquatch swims quite well.

[timpad]

I'm putting in an early vote for the next "road" trip.

I'm watching a Science Channel program, and the thought of the rings of Saturn in my stateroom window is quite enchanting...not to mention the mysteries of Titan to study.

[NicknamedBob]

Boysenberries!

Rats! I knew we forgot something.

[NicknamedBob]

"... an early vote for the next "road" trip."

It's entirely possible we may elect to not come back.

Did you get a chance to read my "Chapter Seventeen?" It describes this place ... this place! .. comfortably nestled in among the asteroids in the future.

[timpad]

Ch 17 huh? I will read it, it sounds interesting.

But, that said, even if we don't "come back", we'll still need to travel, and you'll still need new challenges.

I imagine the Saturnian gravity tides, the radiation and a ring plain crossing would keep you frightfully busy...;-)

[EsmeraldaA]

Oooops!
I should have said something earlier. Better late than never.

Those are important BIG details for me , you know?
BTW. What did you say about books? Yes, no. Some?

[timpad]

plain = plane

[Baraonda]

I use them interchangeably.

Don't make no difference.

[NicknamedBob]

"Don't make no difference."

It does if you want to conceal your unintelligence.

[NicknamedBob]

We have many books, and several libraries.

If you have special books, that you wish to keep with you, you should do that.

Others have donated their books to help us build our libraries. Check with the librarian to see which ones we already have.

We also have computer stations in each room of the courtyard "residences," for those traveling unaccompanied at the moment.

Printouts are available from the libraries.

[Baraonda]

They may be incongruous, but they sound the same to me and, ergo (i just learned of this word - it's Latin), don't make no difference which one you use. They're plane, basic words that are understood by the reader/listener, I think.

[Baraonda]

I'll make use of them libraries on my voyage to higher intellectual planes/dimensions as I want to expand my vast storage of knowledge and reach out to the stars and to God.

I have and note from Mom and, ergo (i gotta use them new words I learn, or I'll forget them), I'll be traveling unaccompanied. That same note gives me permission to enter the parlor, ladies permitting.
