12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 2

Just out of curiousity, I had to take a look, and the EB repo thread is getting really close to us. They just passed 69,000. Kind of funny, I don't really worry or care about it, but I was curious.

It is better to be a part of this thread than to be the thread with the most posts. Besides, it is the quality that counts among friends...not the quantity.

Here is a photo of four of us at BG this past weekend. Back row starting in the 3rd seat...Mike, me, Chris and Elizabeth.

That is at the top of a 205 foot 90 degree drop on the Griffon where you hang...looking down...for a little over 3 seconds before you drop.

Here we are at the bottom of the drop.

I did have my eyes open for the entire ride but I also screamed all the way down both drops. Yes, there are two but you don't hang for the second one.

Happy Monday Friends!

Happy Monday Brandi!

I would have stayed up a bit and chatted, but I thought everyone was gone!

Happy Monday Geeks!

I don't think Amy would like that too much. She is not much of a camper. I may have said this before, but her idea of camping would be a value resort at WDW!

I have always said that my idea of roughing it is a cheap hotel without HBO!

I will take some pics when they are done. I need to take some of the kewl books I did at the convention. I went WAY over budget! To my fellow scrappers...I am sure you can see how that would happen!

As a scrapping guy who is married to a Super Scrapper I understand budget busting!

I just bought Annette the smaller Cricut machine with the Disney cartridge and wanted to get her the big one!

I love the photo and you made me smile a lot!

Good Monday morning! We spent the weekend in Kennewick, WA for my niece's wedding. She married a really good guy, after 2 total bums. We are a happy family for her!
We have to drive down the Columbia River Gorge to get there and oh my! The wind was the worst we have ever seen yesterday coming home. We took the motorhome and Dennis fought to keep it in our lane the whole way. After about 150 miles of it he was exhausted so we pulled into a State Park and waited for the sun to go down. (State Park camping for him is free as he is a disabled veteran so it cost us nothing to stop for awhile) The ranger said the wind usually dies down a little when the temp. drops a bit. I cooked up some mac and cheese and a green beans for dinner, we played a game of SkipBo, dumped and cleaned the tanks and then headed out for the last 90 miles of so around 9:30 last night. The wind died down MAYBE A BIT, but it was still really bad. OY! We would have just spent the night, but DGS Korey wanted to be home this morning. Something to do with Not A Girlfriend Sam, I think.

Brandy, my friend Kelly has taken over the dinning room right now, she doesn't believe me that she will want a permanent spot to scrap without having to clean up each time, lol. Poor deluded soul.

Would love to see what you did at the Convention!

I just bought Annette the smaller Cricut machine with the Disney cartridge and wanted to get her the big one!

Budget busting is why I went digital, well that and space.

There is a smaller Circut machine, do tell people. I have only seen the big one up here.

 

[pjpoohbear]

Lisa, I love the joy and freedom on both your and Mike's faces! Big hugs, miss ya!

 

[pjpoohbear]

Angie and Dennis, nice to hear you had a great weekend and that you chose to be safe rather then getting home sooner. So Korey had to get home to see Sam, eh?

I got cricut for Christmas. I love it. I just got the Disney one and the Disney letter on this past week. I am going to use it on my autograph book. I am already half way done!

She's had this for over two weeks but hasn't been able to use because we have been on the road to Dallas and back. She can't use it until we get home on Thursday night.
