I'll give everybody only one quess where the idea for the yellow-rock driveway marker came from. It puts a little "Bonaire" touch into our Christmas greeting.

Hi Cynde! I've got a few holiday funnies that I'll email to you. :) Mildly tasteless. LOL

Here's a Bonaire ornament for your virtual tree:

We can all use a reason to smile. :) (Playing with these images of lovely Bonaire gets me into a Zen state.) Relieves stress!

Another chuckle...

Santa says...for good girls and boys, there's a downpayment on Christmas at www.neopets.com...little creatures in different worlds who play games, get prizes, and have snowball fights and it's all freeeee! And fun!!! There's faeries 'n pirates 'n...they better see for themselves if they don't already go there. HO.Ho Ho....from Santa

Mummy Linda (again)If Santa sent them a letter from Neopia, what address should he use? Hazel Travis and some of your guys might like it too.

I see that you're a "cat person" Rusty.

Hope you don't mind but I stole the image to pass on to another couple of cat lovers.

Kerri,
congrats & good luck with the 'puter

Cynde Lee, So cute!! Especially the doggies! Are they all yours? Linda

Linda, yes they are all ours...3 generations of long hair weiner dogs, and 3 cats (the 3rd one REALLY didn't like the antlers!)...

Cynde Lee, The dogs don't seem to mind at all, having antlers. The cats, I would imagine, would have them off in minutes! Where did you come up with the name "Geezela"?

Cynde - you made my day! Look at that household full of leetle reindeer - you can make Santa's run this year. I saved the pix to share with the ZipperGirls! Glad you shared them.

Verrrry Cute, Cynde. But I don't think I'd dare. Took my girls for a walk one day with just their normal hairbows to keep the hair out of their eyes..and some cur...of the 2 legged,6 ft kind asked me how I could do that to self-respecting dogs!!! I don't get it. ...Now if he'd complained about them wearing their black motorcyle jackets(yes,with chains and patches) as rain gear.............{-2} sorry can't show you till the wizards come and hook my new toy up to a ISP, and I find the scanner I was promised)

oh, I see, Webster is not happy he is going to be replaced!

Linda, with our first litter, my husband wanted a "geezela" i have no idea where he found it, he thought it sounded "cool"...we ended up giving that pup to my mom, who promptly renamed her "Angel." So with buttercup's litter he was bound and determined to have his geezela...and so it was :-)

Here's hoping I don't get Michael in trouble ** ...Geezela is the German pronunciation of the French name 'Giselle'.... is Michaeling? I once knew a Geezela,she repped DeBoer's diamonds.. and there's an opera....

Cynde,
Check out chiwawagaga.com

It's a shop owned by a friend of Geoffrey's and mine in New Orleans. If I had a little dog (or 2 or 3 or 4), they'd never be nekkid!

Cynde,

Angelo came to our wedding in New Orleans - he was the best dressed there, wearing a tux and top hat. He's also extremely well-known at NOLA (Emeril LaGasse's restaurant there), where he'll wait patiently in his owner's purse (occasionally peeking his head out) for the scraps of duck brought to the table just for him to be discreetly passed along.

Thanks from me, too, Susan. My girls are wearing their xmas plaid pullovers for the second Xmas now....too gauche for words......A shopping trip to N'Awlins seems just the ticket..so to speak:)Cynde had to do something to make up for Gewirtztramminer..GewurtZtamine...ah...make up for causing you worry. :)
