Thanks ma...I’m sure we’ll still be up...I’m such a bad influence on EGPWS, he’s usually in bed by now.

I’m forcing him to stay awake an enjoy the 80 degree weather here. I don’t know how much longer I will though...it’s getting dark now. I better get the kids out of the pool soon and get them fed and ready for bed...and look forward to the margaritas again tomorrow when it’s even hotter.

We are going to take in Seaworld and the IMAX theater first.

[luvie]

YOU are making me jealous that I am not there yet! But, you know that already, don’t you, BRAT-twin! LOL!

Hi, EG!!!! Glad you are having a good time. I KNOW you’ll get used to staying up late. We have to party when Friday gets here!

[MoochPooch]

I remember KOJAK, LAVERNE & SHIRLEY — sheesh, I feel old.

[Kathy in Alaska]

A little late.....

wh!!

tx.....#400!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

The ceremony was great. And the announcer did a terrific job. I didn’t tivo the proper time periods, so only saw part of it on tv, but I saw the whole thing on the web site. What rank was the soldier who escorted General Schoomaker as he reviewed the troops? That was a long walk, and nobody tripped in the long grass. The planes overhead...did they have anything to do with the ceremony? Were they military planes? I LOVED the revolutionary units...the drums and fifes, and the long guns, and especially the color guard.

[EGPWS]

YOU are making me jealous that I am not there yet!

I can't help myself! It's my nature I guess... : - )

It's in the 80's, no wind, and not a cloud in the sky!

Blissful contentment is mine to behold for on top of THAT my companionship 3 fold is wonderful!

Of course now Minnesota is in it's final leg of a snow storm. (Ah, shucks)

I just LOVE my birthday present and at the range I took to it like a duck to water!

80's and blissfully comfortable. I hope it stays this way through Saturday.

I'm just rubbing it in LUV...(poolside)

A happy and content filled mindset has been the driving factor behind this "rub" of mine. /snicker

[luvie]

That’s wonderful EGPWS!! So glad that you guys are having fun and that you liked your birthday present.

Happy Birthday. When was it?

I am practically packed!

Isn’t spring wonderful without snow to mess it up? :D

[EGPWS]

I KNOW you’ll get used to staying up late.

I haven't been on the River Walk yet, but I already have a book of matches from Dick's Last Resort! /snort...

[luvie]

LOL!

You’ll surely go with us on Friday night,won’t you?...all of you?

[EGPWS]

I am practically packed!

I've been fully packed via .45 since I arrived in SA and when you are "fully packed" LUV, you will understand my present euphoria! ; )

Texas sure is fun!

[luvie]

Yep...Texas is the place to be! Maybe you should just stay here.

I am “packed” here but won’t be “carrying”. I don’t want to “carry” on the plane! Egad!

So it’s a nice present, huh? :D
