A fav on DWTS? Wow, after last night I think that the racecar driver is the one to beat! Things can change a lot, but he really looked polished doing the foxtrot.
The boxer was AWFUL!! MY GOSH! I expected him to really do well. Hope Mr. Las Vegas goes home tonight. Just. Do. Not. Like. Him. He seems so nice, but I hate looking at him.
How about you? Who'se your pick after they've all danced? :)
WOW! That is a GORGEOUS picture! Hi, Amy - it’s been such fun today seeing another new thread here!
Well, you have been sorely missed, whether Westerner or New Englander. :)
Thanks, Lady Jag. I had forgotten that you live in Massachusetts. It's a Fine state, for sure. If I have my way, our next vacation is going to be to New England. :-)
I’ll do Rhode Island & North Dakota. (and if aqua cant do Oklahoma, I will)...
geeze. I volunteered for all that w/o the benefit of an adult beverage to loosen my brain.
In for a bit heavy rains. Need to get dogs out yet.. a
I want a bite!!!
Did someone from Mass post this THREAD LINK on the state board?????
This is one thread that should have been a two day one.. and I have a feeling it probably will in some respects.
That is very interesting! I do love the small white steepled churches. I saw lots of them in West Virginia too. So pretty.
Well if you insist....
or do you prefer vampires?
Yes, indeed. I was quite a novice in the beginning. It is interesting how I improved as I went along. (Mostly from watching (actually, copying) Billie, LOL.)
So sorry to hear about your neighbors' car accident. :-(
Yay! Thanks, Dolly! Okay....tentative remaining states to profile:
Montana ~ Lori
Illinois ~ Lori
Kentucky ~ Lori
Oklahoma ~ Aqua
Ohio ~ Dutchess & Dolly
New York ~ GeeBee
Kansas ~ Billie
Rhode Island ~ Dolly
North Dakota ~ Dolly
Have to go - company coming in a few minutes.
Thanks soooo much for the caring commment in # 72...
still not there yet re stuff of life that is knocking my usual joy outta wack...the reasons are many and many reasons are a constant, that’s all i can put into words about it all.
Knowing & feeling the care from You & Others,really helps.
I don’t want to stop keeping in touch/ pinging/posting replying during times like these.
I muster up the want to keep going/trying/hoping/praying/trusting/...No,not i but JESUS musters it up in me.
No, I didn't. I thought everyone had heard that story, probably too many times. LOL.
Yes, wheelbarrow, my 9th great grandmother was one of the Towne sisters who was hanged. Mary Towne Esty (my grandmother) and her sister Rebecca Towne Nurse were both hanged during the summer of the witch hunts in Salem. Their sister, Sarah, was also found guilty but managed to escape the hangman's noose. The Towne sisters were the epitome of humble Christian women. The Salem witch trials was a very dark period in our history.
A wonderful documentary was done on PBS about the sisters, called "Three Soveriegns for Sarah".
Oh, my goodness! That is very disturbing. LOL
Thank you for the compliments and for your contributions to our Bay State cyber-visit. I LOVE that house - love the architecture! So pretty with the bunting and flag out front.
Thanks also for all those links. This is exactly the kind of participation that I hope for when I post my state threads! There is no way I can cover even a fraction of the history and points of interest in Massachusetts, so your links and images are very much appreciated.
I didn't know you are from Massachusetts. It's my home state too. Although I never lived there, I was born in Framingham. My family has very deep roots in Massachusetts.
Those are EXACTLY the places I want to visit!
Thanks again, Amy, for your help. I love the Cranberry information and recipe you provided.
Darn....I have to leave again for a few minutes. I will be back. :-)
