For those of you who are working out...here's an interesting article about calorie burn...

Yep, that's why I can burn so many calories right now, because I am carrying this extra weight around on me..........

I did notice as I reduce the weight on the machines, the calories burned per hour also reduces, just as stated in the article.

DISmeet FO... and missing you all!

Thats great news Andy! I hope your girls enjoy their celebratory lunch.

 

[Verandah Man]

Andy, you can pass on that we very much enjoyed meeting them. I just wish I had more of a chance to speak to your end of the table!

Ooooops!!! I went back and changed my OP to make that Sunday night, not Saturday night.......

That's the one problem with having the tables lined up together like that, the people at one end had trouble talking to others at the other end, at least during the eating part.

Time to make my lunch(shake), be back in a bit.

 

[Verandah Man]

Well, that's my lunchtime for today, gotta get back to work. See y'all later.......

The Alta Vista Chapel

The Californian Light House - names after the ship called Californian that sunk off shore

OK..perhaps someone can answer this one...what is the US obsession with lighthouses?

A couple of pics of Angel Beach

And finally, if anyone can tell me what this animal is, then you're better than me!

Walt and I are lighthouse collectors. If there is a lighthouse near where we are traveling we go see it and then buy a statue of the lighthouse. We have a collection. We have been to at least 70 lighthouses. They are beautiful. I like to go in them and look out in the ocean. Di

When we lived in Maine we would always take visitors to the lighthouses that were a reasonable drive from our house. We even lived about 15 minutes from the famous Lighthouse Depot store.

When flying to Maine at night, it is really cool to look out and see the lighthouses with the various beacons that still serve their purpose. I can recall turning on final approach to Portland and seeing the oldest lighthouse in the US, Portland Head out my window. You could see the beam of light travelling across the water. I used to always love that approach day or night. What a sight!

 

[captchris]

I better head back to work...

 

[Walt & Di]

ok Sean brought the external drive home with our vacation pics and I found this pic that totally describes what the heat was like that day of the panama canal.

I love this picture. You all look so relaxed. Di

Lina got the job at the Disney Store, she starts Oct. 12th as a Seasonal Employee to start!!!

The manager told her they are hiring extra people for seasonal help, but will be keeping some of them after the holidays are over. She told Lina to work hard and not to call out, and she could possibly be one of the people the store keeps after the holidays.

Lina is really excited about getting the job!!! And so are we!!!

For Lina

Thanks for posting that Cass. I was feeling a little bad that my 20 minute workout on my bike only worked off one stinkin' fat free pudding cup. I better recalculate it again. Who know's? Maybe I really worked off two pudding cups!!

 

[Walt & Di]

no need for little ol me to book a room.
Di has offered to let me stay in your room.

No I didn't offer Big Red to stay in my room. It must have been Walter and He is not owning up to it. Di

 

[Walt & Di]

Good morning everyone....

I haven't caught up yet, so I apologize if I've missed anything important.

Woo Hoo. Great job on your #3000 post Jen!!!! Di
