Oh and I set up a boarding kennel or horse training business for Sarah.....wayyyyyyyy down in back. LOL

Kenny Loggins is still touring? Well that makes me feel like a young pup. Awesome. :)

It is funny, my life right now is pretty crazy & I am often pretty broke but overall I am much happier than years ago in career of Real Estate Development when I had oodles of money.. but then not as much time or energy.

And what matters is that you're happy. I know it's a tired old phrase, but money really can't buy happiness. Having a lot of "stuff" doesn't mean a thing if you don't have people to love and those who can love you back. If you're happy as you are, then you're doing it right. ;-)

I wasn't born a Paris Hilton, either. One of my favorite teachers in high school wrote in my yearbook "May you work hard for everything you get."

I often wonder if he cursed me with that by writing it. LOL

"...a big log cabin somewhere in Montana..."

Ooooo, that sounds good, too.

Lessee, a summer home in Bayfield, WI, a sailboat to sail around the Apostle Islands there, a log cabin in the Montana mountains(with plumbing and electricity, of course) and the grandchildren can come visit ME. Paradise.

What if it were really true? What if you woke up one day and money really were no object?

I'd come home!

[Allegra]

....and then probably be bored out of my mind in about two weeks...

[RedBeaconNY]

Ooops... blew my cover. Dangit. Yeah, I'm only 16, so I have a few years yet to enjoy the more intense water sports... but who's to stop even an older chap, eh?

[Lakeside]

Son, at my age Seadooin' IS intense water sports. ;o)

Lunch... nothing processed. A nice pulled pork sandwich with a fresh fruit salad, grilled corn on the cob, and salt potatoes with lotsa butter. Ahhh....

Ahhhh, is right. I'm in. But no paper plates, of course. :)

[Billie]

Very nice set-up, Darling, though I think I'll leave Momar and Pearly, his new bride, on the previous thread. LOL!

Oh, I'm so glad. They just don't fit in with the beautiful people that *we* are. :)

[Aquamarine]

LOL!

Have to be quick to photograph my "puppy". :)

[Billie]

Ping! New York tomorrow - shopping, art exhibits, dining, Broadway....:)

[Mr. Jeeves]

What would you buy?

1) Catalina Island.

2) A Gulfstream V and flying lessons.

3) Eva Longoria. ;)

[Billie]

Count me IN!!

Great! We're on our way. I'll bet the shopping's not too good in Iraq. :(

[Billie]

I'm with you, Red. The very first thing I thought of was 'sailboat'.

With a name like "Lakeside", what else? :)

[Billie]

The photo of Aspen *is* breathtaking! I thought of adding Aspen to the vacation pics, but it was sorta a last-minute search, and I didn't google very long for 'vacation spots'.
