The procession was nice. Everyone walked down this long, winding, boardwalk from the promenade to the beach. There were two attendants, and two flower girls followed them, just before the bride. The youngest flower girl, who looked to be about 3, started down the walk, then her attention was caught by something on the dunes below. She went over to the balusters and started chattering about whatever it was, and threw some of the flower petals down to it. The second attendant had turned around and was calling to the little girl, trying to get her to move. Finally, she had to head back to her, and the litle girl's older sister took her by the hand to urge her on. It was just one of those 'cute wedding moments' Unfortunately, the photographer was too far down the boardwalk to get it on camera. I hope one of the folks who had arrived late, and were stuck on the promenade during the procession, was able to get a picture of it for the couple. The bride saw her, because she and her father were waiting to proceed. I'm sure she'd love to have a picture of it.
U. Southern Miss, '74! Sounds like a long time ago, but sometimes, it seems like yesterday. Wierd.
Käfer?
That's when we got our Masters :-)
Miss Peege and I are now provisioned...
...pop in another movie.
They're fed, by the way. They were hunkered down in the lean-to, and after I'd already put the hay out, I realized I probably could have put the hay in the racks in there while they were busy with the grain. Oops.
Heh...Cyn tried to do a big rush to her grain bowl and slipped in the mud. Didn't look like she hurt herself, so I just laughed at her. ;-)
I had quite the get-up...found my oilskin hat so my glasses would stay dry and wore my hugh llama sweater...water doesn't affect its warmth. But it wasn't a very flattering outfit....
Heh... Cyn's a clutz. I guess the muddy season has returned.
Thanks for going out there, we're leaving here soon headed home. See you later.
Mmmmmm.....cheese of the month...
The bug, and the Bug.
I want to learn my architectural CAD program better. Might even do the 'official' training for it. That'll have to wait until we get settled, though. If the college had offered Construction Technology as a major when I was there, I might have done that, but they didn't start that program until several years after I left. The Community College in Gulfport offers it as an Associates Degree. I may take the Const. Tech courses, just for the info; don't need an Associates degree.
Yep, Käfer means Beetle.
My Precious is mein Käfer.
And I love it!
:-)
We still have a small bit left from when you were here of the blueberry...Steve had some with his breakfast this morning! I had it for supper in the shop last night.
This month it's a Polish cheese "Suwalski," a "semi-soft cheese made from Cow's milk." Looks like it would be a good melting or sandwich cheese. Hopefully, it's good for snacking since I like snacking. :)
I have a little bit of the cheese from two months ago to finish first.
Hullo - we're home, everyone looks fine, the cats seem disgruntled and there was a mishap or two in the house, but nothing looks worse for wear.
Had to get my drainage cleaned out in the paddock, it's just wet out there. Horses will like being able to come in a little early tonight.
Thanks for feedin' for us :~)
I got 1.3 inches this morning.
That's twice as much as we got, congrats.
Got our BS in '70. Went back to school after working for a while.
Not a problem!
Hope the horses aren't any the worse for wear...
They're fine. It's wet, but it's not real cold yet. They'll appreciate getting in tonight, I think, it doesn't take long for the paddock to become a sloppy place to try to sleep in.
