While he was here, we only had one really good sized snowfall, but he did get to see some nice snow when he spent New Year's in New Hampshire with some old friends from Carnegie Mellon. They all rented a condo up in Waterville Valley, and did some skiing. I don't know how long it's been since he was up on snow skis, but he took a couple of good tumbles. One side of his back was a hugh bruise for a week!
I mean, not the flood pictures...I don't love those...but the one like the Douglas firs and the horses and cows...
Someday, that could be your car...complete with poodle! ;-)
I emailed it to my dad, even though I haven't heard from him in weeks. I suspect he doesn't even get my email. I suspect it's deleted before he gets it because he asks me questions in emails that I've already answered in previous emails.
...When I used to live at home in my early 20s I had to get my own mailbox because my snail mail never got to me or was already open when I got it. So there's precedence
super evil post
Woooo! I was concerned when I got the 6660!
You know...gotta wonder about you sometimes, dude. You propose on Friday the 13th, and celebrate your first day of engagement anniversary by snagging an extended evil number. *shakes head sadly*
Heh...
...It used to bother me because I thought my dad wasn't writing me back when I'd write him, but then I began realize it was like he wasn't getting my emails! When the situation with the Sams Card happened, I made him call me to talk to me about it...didn't want to deal with it via email 'cause you really don't know who you're dealing with or if information is getting through or if the story is being twisted to fit an agenda. Heh. I should write a novel.
I think I'm gonna try making this for dinner. I don't have fresh rosemary and thyme (yet), and I guess I'd substitute the red wine that's been in the fridge since before Christmas for the sherry, but I think it'll still be tasty. Gonna half the recipe.
Mmmm! That really does sound good!
I don't b'lieve I've ever actually had sherry...don't know what it tastes like or anything. Port either.
I don't think I've ever had them either. I've had brandy a few times - my brother bought a bottle near Christmas a few years ago, so we all got to taste it.
Sis, Steve and I are thinking of doing a raised bed garden kinda like the one you did with the cinder blocks...could you post pictures, or links to pictures of yours again so I can get some ideas?
We're just going to set it on the ground, on a layer of hardware cloth and fill it with man-made soil and compost because I swear, the gophers are already tearing up my garden and I can tell they're going to wreck havoc on it when the roots start growing.
I've had Brandy Alexanders. Oh my! That was actually the first drink I ever ordered, when I was 15. Ordered it at my best friend's wedding (she is several years older than me and has been my best friend since I was two.)
I have to say, it was delicious.
I'd like to try a real nice brandy though...just a taste.
my dad used to pour abt 2 tbs of brandy on his ice cream... I have to say that's some good!
Heh heh! I bet that is good!
I've only had Brandy Alexanders a couple of times in my life...
We saw a llama.
Let's just hope he doesn't see Jen in her wedding dress before she walks down the aisle.
Evenin' everyone!
Great pics, Hair.
Um....and I believe they should re-think that fire station location. ;-)
