10/24/2009 Bash On the Boat (I'm with B.O.B.) - Thread #18

[Walt & Di]

Sounds like they are available in the US then - I'll have to look for them although probably they haven't made their way to Maine. We're always last to get anything!



I never thought much about it. In my case I guess I think of Brunswick as my home town because I moved here as a child. If I travel & people ask me, I don't say my hometown is in Mass. but I might say I lived in Mass as a kid & moved to Maine when I was 10. Now how's that for a way too complicated answer!!!!



I have it on my calendar & plan to watch!



Besides living in Mass. as a child, I also went to UMass Amherst.



Our summer theater is also going to do "High School Musical" this season. The others are ones I'm not too familiar with. I usher there so I get to see the shows free. I also pick up actors at the airport occasionally. Last season I picked up an intern whose father plays a leading role on a CBS soap.



I haven't seen a post from Nancy G this morning to know what she thought. The one we saw was called Minnie & Mickey's Magical Journey & had Lion King, Mermaid, Lilo & Stitch & Peter Pan. (Did I tell you that already? If so it's my CRS acting up!)

My nephew Jared graduated from U Mass Amherst a few years ago. My other nephew Nathan graduated from Amherst College. What a small world it is. Di

Thanks for all the well wishes.

More later!

Thanks for keeping us updated Dan.

Who? What? Where? When? Why?

Ok, maybe just Where? and When?

Maybe for now just a "TBD" entry for the napkin folding class on your site Cass?

FAT A$$ FO

That made me giggle.

I just updated my trip report with the Magic Kingdom section, if anyone is interested. I also added a section on the Bay Lake Tower construction.

I'll head over later but it looks like I still have a ton to read over here.

Mary has a lot more than an oxygen monitor on her finger, there's an IV and this whole spaghetti of other monitoring cords that can get in the way as well, and the notebook isn't all that conducive to typing anyhow.

Mary's doing well enough that one of the nurses inferred that the only reason she's still in ICU is there really isn't room up in the regular patient rooms, and there's plenty down in the 2 ICU units. No point in moving her. She's met all the doc's goals, the only remaining thing they are doing is wean her off the oxygen so she can get up and get moving around to get her strength back. They've pretty aggressively stepped it down already, I'd expect she'll be totally off it in the next day or two. If everything goes as they expect she could be heading home as soon as Tue.

To all those out there who are sick and under the weather

nice to see you guys back here.

Rachel and her friend Courtney really enjoyed Disney on Ice! I asked what characters there were and she said lots of them I'll ask for more details this morning. She said they would definitely like to go again next time and I'll go with them next year too They did see Nancy G to say hi to her too

Yup, they stopped over to say hi.

Sean said what is wrong with scott
Has he had a bang on the head?
Is he wearing an apron

Oooooh, if so...pics please!

 

[Walt & Di]

Thanks Diane
Nice to speak to you. Bet its nice and sunny with you. Watched a programme on tv last friday about texas. A british couple were looking to buy a holiday home there. It looked really nice, they were looking round fort william.
Where do yo live. Texas is huge right?
Cath

It is sunny and nice here today. Walt is off on his bike. He went with his Harley friends. I did not go since I have my grandson's basketball game today. I went yesterday and had a fun time. It was nice but alittle chilly. very windy. Nice to talk to you too. Texas is very big. I will have to look up where Fort Williams is when I get home. I will check it out on the computer. Diane

Nancy K and everyone else who is interested, Disney on Ice was really really good. We loved it!

As promised, her is my sutpid impluse buy. The girls wouldn't let me buy them anything (they're too grown up now I guess), but I shelled out $10.00 for this crown. But the guy told me it was from Tiffany's and that the gems were real!!!

Me, Kristin and Stacy:

My baby girl: (She didn't want her own crown but sure did like wearing mine).

Now just a few shots of the show:

I wish there was a better shot of Dorie and Nemo. Their costumes were very distracting and certainly something the Dawg would like to remark on. The eyes of the fish were strategically placed on the skaters chests.

 

[tikimimi]

Ray is fantastic, but also Jessica is getting good.
Olivia has ice skating lessons and one of her instructors had been coaching Ray and was telling her how good he was. this was weeks before it came on tv. The celebrities had been training for a while before it came on tv. We love it, we watch it everyweek wihout fail.
Only wish i could do half of it.

Our daughter, Olivia, used to skate competitively. Her first coach was Scott Hamilton's coach. He administered her first test too. She was slated to be in the 2010 Olympics according to her coaches, but she gave it up long before that!

She was Snoopy from Peanuts in this one and skated to music by Vince Guaraldi

It is beautiful here today, but still my chair is waiting for me there -

 

[Karen Mouse]

I want to go and see this when it hits London, but think I've missed the boat. Who do you think will win? Ray is my choice at the moment.

I love it too. Ray is brilliant but I still laugh my head off at Todd Carty - especially the week he flew off the ice and through the doorway

Does Ellis take his DS on the plane? Last time there was loads of kids all talking together, it passed quite a bit of time and they were walking round the plane trying to find one another.

Yes he does. that will be fun

Nancy - I love your ears! - you have a tiara now! - is the meet still scheduled onbaord?

That genie line looked fab. We always go to see it when its by us.

 

[Karen Mouse]

Well, the snow is truly coming down now - we have 2 inches on the top of my car already and thats in quite a sheltered spot on the drive. All I can pray for now is that Beavers and cubs are cancelled tomorrow and Tuesday. Its Ellis' last Beavers tomorrow and he's meant to do the "crossing the dam" to cubs ceremony... I'm petrified of driving him there On Tuesday he does his investiture into Cubs.

Please melt snow

Sorry Karen, I'm not on the Tiarra list. That one would be way too cumbersome to pack anyway.

Very cute pictures Mimi. Has Olivia lost interest in skating or does she still dabble in it now and then? I understand that it's a very expensive sport to participate in. Skates can cost up to $1000.00 a pair for the pros!!

I love your cc pic too! May I borrow it please?

 

[Verandah Man]

See you later Andy. Have a good day.

Just got in from church, looks like another 100+ posts were added since I was last on.....

 

[Verandah Man]

Its just started snowing again .. Neil goes away to Plymouth in a hours time til Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm going to have to drive in it

I feel for you today Karen, right now we have sunny skies and the temp is 62* and I'm lovin' it!!!

Our sn*w, from the other day, is nearly all gone already.......

Thank you- its slowing down a bit now

Shame - that would have looked great with a fancy shmancy cocktail dress

I also pick up actors at the airport occasionally. Last season I picked up an intern whose father plays a leading role on a CBS soap.

This year's show are:

Annie Get Your Gun(finished last night)
The Cocoanuts
Oklahoma
All Shook Up
Little Shop of Horrors
Peter Pan

Then High School Musical was just added in a few weeks ago.

This is the theatres 3rd season and our 2nd season in attending. We attended one show (Beauty and the Beast) the end of the first year, then signed up for season 2 shortly thereafter. We bought the super saver package, purchase three shows @ $25.00 each, get three more shows for free!!!

Thats true - a friend of mine when we were at school used to do it - her parents paid a fortune for each pair of boots. Luckily my feet were one size smaller than hers so as she grew out of them I used to buy them off her for $20 - the trouble was people expected me to be good when they saw my fancy shmancy boots but I could barely skate ...

 

[Karen Mouse]

Dinner time!

I'm having chicken risotto and Ellis is having pizza

 

[Verandah Man]

Any adults playing today?

It's not after 9pm here yet, can't answer that question........

It's a shame that Todd Carty keeps getting saved though.

Oh Nancy..I would've had to have a crown too. The show looks fantastic.
