Always enjoy your walks down memory lane maggie.. need to put them all together for a cyber journal/ dairy of sorts.. copy/past makes it easy..

I had never known about caches.. so much to learn...

[DollyCali]

you sunny climate folks are lucky & it is okay to gloat. If we are living in wretched climates we cannot blame anyone but ourselves, now can we????

[Diver Dave]

Post 2 is a link to the video of last year's Star Spangled Banner..I love the combined Academy choirs. I don't have a team in this so I say..Hope it is a great game.

"Go, STEELERS!!"

Thank you dear (*MEG33*)

[anonymoussierra]

Thank you dear (*LUV W*)

[MEG33]

You're welcome.

The party I will be at will be big Steeler's bashing party because Cleveland is supposed to hate the steelers. (duh).. I have no such bias & find it interesting with all the hostility.. but it should be a great game.. two good teams with a lot of sentiment thrown in along the way

You're always welcome, Sara! Thank you for being a friend..to me and to America. Thank God for our wonderful Polish allies.

[MEG33]

Amen! God bless our Polish allies.

I guess this isn't a good time to tell you that I had to use my air conditioner in the car on the way home from work, is it? :/

Rubbing it in are we??? :o)

[luvie]

Hee-hee...who..meeeeee? ;o)

That's such a pretty picture, it must have been wonderful up there. My boys would have loved that!! We tossed a coin when hubby got out of the service, Texas or Alaska. Texas won. While I'm glad I ended up with a couple 'native Texans', I've always regretted that the coin didn't flip the other way.

And don't you just love pansies??!! I can never decide which color I like best. I've got the most beautiful blue ones this year, planted with some big white ones. For really special occassions we will decorate a cake with pansies-they are just the most beautiful cakes. The pansies can also be dipped in egg white and sugared with fine sugar to look frosted.

Your story has me rotf, laughing, remembering a fishing trip into upper Ontario. My Dad planned to take my adolescent brother on a bonding trip and I hustled my way in on it-refused to be left out- so to round it out my brother was able to take a friend. (Mom's idea of camping was a 5 star hotel LOL) The only access to the camp was by pontoon plane. The previous spring a bear had destroyed part of the cabin. Dad admonished us not to leave anything out that might attract animals. One night, a bump in the night woke us all up, wide-eyed. Dad said it MUST have been a bear walking into the suspended fuel tank; ) No further noise, but then the boys had to relieve themselves. The two of them darn sure wouldn't leave the cabin, so they cracked the door just enough to take care of business : )

Oh, dutchess, that is breathtaking! A true winter wonderland! What a beautiful sight!

It's just as pretty today as long as your looking at it from indoors! :o)

How did the flying lesson go?

There was virually zero visiability so I ended up with ground school. (which I still need plenty of to get ready for the written and oral exam. Alot of this stuff is like a foreign language to me.) Scheduled to fly again Sat. Hopefully the weather will cooperate!

[dutchess]

I am interested in the pregame and will check in on the game from time to time..I hope they do the Star Spangled Banner as well as last year's. I don't care who wins!

I'm the same way Meg. I also like to watch the commercials and ofcourse the Rolling Stones are doing the halftime show. Hopefully it will be much better than that Janet Jackson debacle a few years ago!

[dutchess]

Also not a good time to mention that I was out mowing the grass yesterday.

Grass???? What's grass??? BTW, loved those pictures of Christian and Logan you posted the other day. What adorable little guys!

[dutchess]

Thanks maggie. The snow is just as pretty today. I LOVE to ready about your Fairbanks experiences. Have NEVER been to Alaska. It's another one of those things on my "to do" list! ((((maggie)))))

[MEG33]

I love to look at it..from indoors..Good luck on your flying.

[dutchess]

Need to run. Feeling a little guilty watching Mr. D. shovel the drive, dig out my car etc. (since I left it in the drive instead of the garage yesterday...oops) Hope you all have a blessed Sunday!
