What's your grandfather's first name. I'll put him on our Parish Prayer list this week. Is this your Mom's Dad or your Dad's?
WooHoo! Ladies with guns!!
That WAS disconcerting, wasn't it? Did y'all get a picture at the set-up where they were doing forced perspectives? Clare and I did that at the exhibit in Boston. If I can figure out a way to set it up, I'll send it later.
They're pretty cute ain't they :~D
Looks like a good time has been had by all! Praying everyone has safe drives back to their homes.
I was a hobbit, and had my picture taken with my friend who was Eowyn..If there would've been a really "authentic" Gandalf there, I probably would've tried to get him to pose with me in the "cart".
That WAS disconcerting, wasn't it?
I read that they have to powder Boromir down when it's humid because the silicone sweats, and looks like beads of perspiration.
I also decided that at a younger age, I should've had a silicone sockmonkey made to be used at my funeral. Of course when you're dead, you can't hear people saying how good or bad you look, anyway...
I also liked the thing where you stood on the footsteps, and it told you what kind of creature you would be. I was correctly labeled as a halfling. I know people got a kick out of the little wisecracks it made. "Elvish has left the building."
We got interviewed and photo'd going into the exhibit first, but we didn't even ask the guy what paper or whatever it was for, so I'll probably never know.
At least in my previous fifteen minutes of fame marching around the Governor's Mansion with my "Cheatie's" Box, the reuter's guy told me it was going to be in papers around the globe..It's fun seeing your picture on Yahoo, and on the front page of foreign papers.
Yeah, we was already hitched, but couldnt afford the big to do at the time we got married. This was my gift to her after being gone for 16 months. I thought she had earned it. It really turned out beautiful.
It sure looks like a beautiful day was had... and a great celebration after your long seperation. You both deserve it. So did you get another honeymoon too? ;~D
It sure turn out nice! Congratulations!
Just got back from church to an empty house...
*sniff*...
So they have all gone? You haven't ended up with squatters who refuse to leave at least ;~D
I sure wish we could have been there.
Us, too.
no squatters... just finished the last clean up... they left the house in a fairly decent state...
we wish y'all had been here too...
but yer always welcome on theRidge...
We got back at 1:30 or so, unloaded the Highlander, OT got her things packed up. LSA had Ginger Beer iced up and we all had ham & swiss cheese sandwiches. Gypsygirl was glad to see me, or was it the ham and swiss on rye? Either is okay with me. :-)
Wonderful time folks, The G'nads are wonderful hosts. Hope all will continue homeward, safely and we'll all be awaiting the Entmoot of 2006.
To our many friends who were unable to make journey this time, we're looking forward to seeing at the Moot: You all with us in spirit.
Thanks g'nad. We hope to go there someday!
Well, we've put this off for far too long... we're off to return the truck to dad.
Got back a few minutes ago. The ground's a little wet (too wet to mow today...hehehehe) and the "garden" looks relatively unscathed. Miss Cat was glad to see me and I got some wet food out for the long-suffering cat. :)
The run back was 5hours and 45 mins. G'nad, that other route shaved off at least an hour 15, thanks!
'M watching Holy Grail. Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
After church Jen was thinking that a off season cabin rental around Aspen, say like, next august might be pretty cheap for a 'moot.
Got turned into a newt?
