PLANKY DOES PANAMA…Who would have thought…


Way cool!!!! So does he have anything to do with the planes that buzz the house??? Oh... and have you been to Olivers??? Voted Best Burgers in the area!!!


No we've never been to Olivers. Thanks for the tip though, we'll have to check it out! And nope they have nothing to do with the planes. They just need the airstrip just in case. :thumbsup2
 
Your proposal is acceptable.


I've spoken to Brenda already to ask permission, but would like to officially ask you if you would like to join Happy, The K-Man and I on our journey to HOTlanta, errrr I mean Atlanta from June 14 through the 20th.

Ok then, just to confuse you even further, here is yet another Plankton...

This was Plankton trying to disguise himself as a firey red head and playing elevator tag.

I can HIGHLY reccomend their breakfast on weekends... and weekdays too, but they pull the good stuff out on Sat. & Sun. Why just this morning we dined there and had a superb Eggs Benny with a very light yet tangy hollandaise sauce with homemade home fries and Grammy B had their special... banana :banana: pancakes with caramel swirl icecream and real maple syrup... I of course ate the leftovers for desert... :goodvibes :goodvibes :goodvibes

Planky, for the sake of those lucky enough to cruise with you, I hope you are not overdoing the great food in Upstate NY!!! I was waiting for some pictures with your speedo!:lmao: But I guess with Photoshop things can look a lot better then in person! :cool2:
 
Planky, I have someone that I can't keep away from the computer.

She wants to know if you're single. She's kind of an old gal, but with lots of life left in her and plenty of zing!

Hey... is she leaving Ted home????

Maybe we could do drinks... How about the 11th... around 10... Promenade Lounge???

I'll be the one wearing green....:cool2:

Nope Karen... No speedo.. After last years Borat episode...:rolleyes1 Besides... I'm afraid I might have put on a few ounces since I got here... Grammy B is a good cook!!! Did I tell you I liked her Lasagna???? :goodvibes :goodvibes Made with FRESH Capiello Cheese that was sold to Grammy B by a little old Italian Lady at the shop... Made that day she said... it was YUMMO!!!!
 
Hey... lets get back to this trip report...
Ok... everybody sing!!!! (Carole King is rolling over and she's not even dead yet...)


Lift me, won't you lift me above the old routine;
Make it nice, play it clean PLANKMAN!!!!!

When the PLANKman's testifyin' a faithless man believes
he can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees.
It's a gospel kind of feelin', a touch of Georgia slide,
a song of pure revival and a style that's sanctified.

PLANKman take my blues away; make my pain
the same as yours with every change you play.
PLANKman, oh PLANKman.


I'm thinking of a new career as a lounge singer... Gotta help pay for Bendy's love affair with food!!!
 
Ok... after that brief break... Thanks for singing along... Planky Kareoke will be available in the lobby on your way out...

So...

Back to the tour...

You know ever since they mentioned that I'd be going on a Canal trip I've been just so excited... so we thought some Canal training was in order...

LOOK!!!! Water!!!! Spring runoff was a bit high this year...

IMG_0216-2.jpg


Here's Lock 9... boats will start going through here around Memorial Day...


IMG_0222-1.jpg


And Here's Grammy B waiting patiently in the car for us... I swear she ripped through at least 1/2 a romance novel on this tour...

IMG_0224-1.jpg


So... What Canal did I study?????

IMG_0225-1.jpg


You know... If I was going west on the canal... I'd make it to Niagara Falls... however, my barrel over the falls excursion was canceled....
 
Hey... is she leaving Ted home????

Maybe we could do drinks... How about the 11th... around 10... Promenade Lounge???

I'll be the one wearing green....:cool2:

She might be willing to dump Ted. They've been dating for 46 years and it hasn't gone very far.

Well, geting ready for this trip has been... a trip!!! Lots of activities... the house looks a bit messy - and Aunt Shell says it's going to stay that way unless the fairy's from Merry Maids come while we are gone... Running out of time... we leave in less than 24 HOURS!!!

Are we ready???? Yeah... right... :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2:

I of course had to go and get some touch ups done.. can't go on a cruise with roots showing... & I decided to get some highlights...

There was one place up here that I wanted to see very much... you see... I feel like I've been here already... not as hot... no mouse in the house... BUT...ohhhhhhhhhhhhh it's SOOOOOOOOOOOO Pretty!!!!!

Welcome to Saratoga Springs... the REAL Saratoga Springs!!!!

My first stop was to see....

saratoga1IMG_0244-1.jpg


Built in the 1864... all wood... (lots of sprinklers..). It's known as the Kentucky Derby of the North and it hosts a very swanky and fun season of racing between the end of July and Labor Day...The Travers Stakes takes place every August and often hosts all the winners from the Triple Crown!!! Aunt Shell likes to go hang out in the "backyard" area where lots of people come, bring their chairs and picnics and watch the racing.

saratoga2IMG_0250-1.jpg


saratoga5IMG_0253-1.jpg


Before you know it... I'll be lining up here to get my free T-shirt or Jockey bobblehead... then I'll go back out and come back in to get another... and I'll do it until I have enough to run back out through the gate right to my laptop. I'll have that stuff on Ebay by dinner!!!!

saratoga3IMG_0247-1.jpg


Hey...... HEY YOU.... ON THE HORSE.... $2, TO SHOW, ON 1 LEGGED BENDY!!!!!
