Good morning everyone! Hoping for a great day here in VA! We're puppy sitting overnight for my Mom; she owns a miniature Schnauzer named Kemper They live in SW VA & are on their way north of us, to WV, to do some gambling!!! BABY needs a new pair of shoes...Mom!!!



Everyone have a great day! Hope the West Coasters are doing well; we wanna know!!!!

Kobi

Kiwi?!?!?! Just heard on the news that someone in the Hoosier state (IN) won the big LOTTERY!!!! Are you out there? Are you still here?!? I guess if you're MIA we know why!!!

Kobi

Kobi,

I was having my first cup of java this morning, staring at the TV news, when they announced that the Powerball winner was from Indiana. Well, I bought tickets yesterday and my heart started to beat fast (I knew I would win!). Alas, it was not meant to be. The winning ticket was bought in Richmond and I'm in Ft. Wayne. Crap! No cigar.

If I had won, you would all be invited to party on my yacht!

Kobi,
Additional note: I had 10 picks and the very first one I had the powerball! My heart really started beating then. Did not hit anything else at all. Whaaaaaa!!!

We didn't win the FL lotto last night, either, but we got enough winnings to pay for the tickets we bought.
While I'm here, let me show a few pics of this weekend with Larry's oldest son and his girlfriend, Rachelle - and of course sunsets and stuff. lol They're here until Tuesday morning.








I really like my new camera!

I don't think I've ever actually seen butterflies mating. Oh, and since we just ate the last of the bananas, there's a new pod that's just dropped. Goody!

Kathy,
Glad to hear you broke even. I got $3 back on my $10 investment.

Love the pics. Very nice quality!

Thanks Steve. It's good enough for me.

Oh, and people who love to take pictures, here's a simple game we've having a contest with here. lol You have to catch good shots of Superman flying over various cities. It's a quick game, very addictive!

Kobi - Kemper is a cutie How old is he?

Steve - well maybe the next time! So you don't have a yacht yet? But will when you win & then we can all party on your yacht with a crew who will tend to our every need & a chef to make us dinner just like Jerry

Kathy - beautiful pics. Your butterfly close-ups are great & the sunset is gorgeous.
Glad you like your new camera

JT,

No yacht yet. I like the way you describe it! A mini-Jerry chef would be outstanding.

Kathy,
To have a camera is to love a camera!

That little dog is a cutie.

Kathy, love those sunsets! Glad you are all having a good time.

Hi Freddie!

How's your day goin? snicker...

PSSSST, don't tell anyone I'm here. The mini meet was FABULOUS!! I'm recovering in a nice little cell here in Laguna beach. My husband is on the way with bail money. Kinki Pinky do, is in the next cell over mumbling about her hello ••••• panties being in a bunch. Martin and Angela are still trying to get out of jail by showing their passports, Mara, Tara, Eric and Guy are are doing a fashion show for the inmates, Babs and Allison are discussing Folsom for some weird reason, Michael and Dylon have moved to Mexico, Karen and Rog left before the POOO-lice came, Buttercup and Momo are holding the fort down till we make it back! It was one
H*LL of a party!!Oh, and we all got matching tattoos! Gotta go the sheriff is coming.......

Finally! RosAnne comes thru.

Geez, RosAnne... is that all? Here we thought something big might have actually happened! ROFLMAO

You gotta give us more, girlfriend! We're going through withdrawl here in the midwest

Pictures are here

well, CB got out of jail by promising the police we won't come back (at least not this year.) And Martini did some convincing by doing his best Elton John impression (see picture link above!)c

It looks like and sounds like a great time was had by all!! We need a mini-meet in the mid-west. Loved reading and watching (pictures) every minute of it!

Kiwi....I was SO hoping you had one the BIG ONE!!! Oh well, when you get that yacht just yell and you know we'll be on it like flies....

Judy...Kemper is almost a year old. He's so full of life and my Yorkie girls just want NOTHING to do with a male much less something that weighs 20 lbs. Bits is 10.5 and moody, Bon Bini is almost 4 and she'll play with Kemper although she's a bit wigged out since he's a giant LOL.

Kathy...awesome pics!!

Rosanne....thanks for checking in; we were wondering how things went.

Kobi

Guess I should clarify above. Meant to say Bits is 10.5 years old and 6 lbs. Bon Bini is almost 4 years old and 5 lbs

Anyhoo....Kathy! I forgot to drool over your sunsets. They really are FAB. I wanna see one of those sometime soon. I'm coming to Jax and then on to St. Simons Island in October so will soak up some FL weather while on business

Kobi

Tonight's AFTER sunset, after a thunderstorm, when the bats came out (but I can't find any bats in the pics!)


We had a great day being tour guides. It's not over yet, though I have to work tomorrow and Tues, Larry doesn't have to work (all his extra off days come in handy!) they don't leave until Tuesday late morning. We went to Ft. Desoto and walked that beach and pier, saw lots of dolphins, lots of nice birds, then went to eat smoked fish, then went on to St. Pete Beach, at Passe a Grill. Was very nice. Thunderstorm on the way home and rainbows, and at home, then that very nice sunset, which melted away all color into this b/w night. And dinner's ready.

Hope you all had a great day. We did.
