I am here for a little while.. very tired. Been up since very early again..& go, go, go the entire day.sigh

Need exercise??? perhaps get out & walk your pets! That would raise some eyebrows! Talk about conversation piece? Chick magnet?

[ilovew]

Lol I don't think you could scare me if you tried. :P

[DollyCali]

everything is relative. To me you are one of the "younguns"

[DollyCali]

of course you can be on the ping list.. Just try really hard to NOT hit on the young studs here (like shy WFTR)

Well doggone it, Dolly, now you've gone and taken all the fun out of it.

But, if you insist, I'll try to control myself. ;-)

LOL

to a degree, same here...

I realize that Dolly will do the official "Thank you" post, but I want to give an unofficial thanks for this thread and the great pictures. When I was younger, I was determined to get to Alaska. If my career hadn't taken some bad turns about twelve years ago, I'm sure that I would have visited someday. As it is, I realize that I may never get there. In any case, seeing your pictures has been fun. I've had a little chance to experience this great place through your eyes and cameras. Thanks to proud_yank for being the official host and to snugs for starting us out on Friday. Thanks to thackney and Mama_Bear for contributing pictures. Dolly, thanks for keeping all of this stuff going.

I could ask you to be my partner in one of those dance classes that Dolly wants me to take. If that didn't scare you, it would at least scare the teacher and the teacher's insurance agent. LOL

Given the way many people feel, most snake keepers keep their animals a secret. In some states, public display of a snake is illegal. I forget exactly how they word the laws, but the general idea is that one cannot have a snake out in public in a way that someone who didn't want to see a snake might see it. Snakes can only be on display where they are expected. When they are transported, they must be hidden.

[WFTR]

LOL Thanks!

Well now, you never know. I thought I would never get to Australia. It seemed as far away as the moon to me, but I have always wanted to go there. As fate would have it, our Rotary club paid our way there a couple years ago to attend the Rotary International Convention as the representatives from our community. It was as 'out of the blue' surprise that just fell into our laps. So, see? You really just never know.

I am glad you enjoyed the pictures and it's a pleasure meeting you, WFTR.

That's true, and you get to have fun scaring me with all that talk about dance classes.

[ilovew]

Nope, doesn't scare me. And I'd be willing to bet the teacher has seen much worse than you. :)

[WFTR]

I once took an ice skating class. I was horrible, but I had fun. I just decided that I wasn't going to worry about falling, so I tried everything and hit the ice pretty hard and pretty regularly. I really scared the teacher during that class.

[DollyCali]

I already did the thank you(I THINK)

[ilovew]

Ooh I've got a worse story than that. The first time I went ice skating, I fell and chipped my front tooth. The only reason my teeth look normal is because of a magical thing called bonding. :P

[rzeznikj at stout]

i was, but now

[DollyCali]

I was taking dance lessons when I was 5....I am still a klutz. Imagine what I would be like w/o lessons?(I am a good dancer just klutzy most of the other times)

Here is something funny posted by Lady Jag on the Finest.. GOOD MESSAGE..for those of you who have $$$ to support this I hope you will. I feel badly as I pledged 100 last quarter. (we live on about 1000/mo).. two days later I had furnace repair for 360 & car repair for 560. Needless to say I did NOT make my pledge & didn't pay a lot of bills the next few months.. SO... if you can support the great work here at FR, write a generous check/credit card payment.
