WBRepo-Ship of Thieves-Remember the Magic Pt 19

[LisaG520]

I'm awake again!!! (and apparently talking to myself... )

How's everyone today???

I'm working at home today as we had to take Sookie to the vet today. (New kitten for anyone not on Facebook )

She got a clean bill of health so is now able to play wth Jasper with no chaperones.

This weekend I'm going to a crop Friday and Saturday. Sunday we'll probably go see The Green Lantern.

Mailed our Father's Day cards out yesterday so we're good there

 

[Tink rules]

hello everyone

How are you all?

I am busy busy busy...

I went away to Loch Katrine with 13 ladies last weekend... I had a nice times... weather was awful... but we had the fun with face mask and dancing at evening was so funny...

Oh dear about Canada Hockey!!

Nothing much news as Olivia was great at sport day last week...

School's holiday start two weeks time !!

We are going back to York on 11 July for 5 days to take Peggy (black lab dog) home...

so nothing exciting news...

It must be exciting to think.... less than a month and you will have your dog!!!

Which came first... Sukie or Sookie???

Why do you have to take Peggy back home? I thought she was your dog now.

Sookie is named after the main character on True Blood (and in the series of books by Charlaine Harris).

We just found out at the end of last season she's a fairy and not just a human waitress like we thought.

Just finished registering the Disapalooza HarryPotter event in December

Any other thieves going this year?

Deborah is bringing her home for the first time i think

 

[HollyTyler]

Thanks Holly. We did have a good time at least.

I'm sorry that it's not going to work out this year. There's always next year or another time of the year. Where exactly are you going with Tyler? Is it on the lake? I keep seeing Michigan vacation spots on TV and it looks so beautiful. Have fun!!! Post pics on FB. I'll be looking for them.

Deb, this link shows everything we plan on seeing: http://www.paradisemi.org/ParadiseAttractions.php Our main focus, and what triggered the idea of this trip, is the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum because of Tyler's interest in the Edmund Fitzgerald wreck. He's been asking me to go up there for 3 years now. While we're there, we'll stay in Paradise, MI because it's centrally located to other things I want us to see while we're up there. This is in the Upper Peninsula of MI and it's basically all forest up there. We'll be going to see the water falls at Tahquamenon Falls State Park and I plan to hit one particular trail that has an overlook where moose are usually seen, we'll drive over to Soo Locks one day to watch ships go through. I want to go to Oswald's Bear Ranch and maybe Tahquamenon Logging Museum. Then on the way back down we're stopping in Indian River, MI to go to the gift shop run by the author of the "Michigan Chiller" and "American Chiller" books. The author does hang out in the store, so Tyler's hoping to meet him. I've lived in MI my whole life and have never been up to the bridge, so I'm super excited to be driving across it! I'd like to go to Mackinac Island too (because I've never been, but Tyler has once), but I'm not sure yet how many days we'll have up there. Probably only 4 days.

Just a little local tidbit: People who live in the U.P. are called Yoopers and have a completely different way of life. They all have very strong Canadian accents (including saying "eh" often) and it's a hunting/fishing/deer camp/beer drinking lifestyle up there, LOL! I've never been, but it's just a well known fact around the state. There is a band called Da Yoopers (who are all from up there), and if you can find any of their songs, they describe life up there. http://dayoopers.com/ And by the way, those of us who live in the lower peninsula are called Trolls because we live "under the bridge". It's definitely an interesting state we live in!

Hi Holly

Tell Heather I am so pleased for her and congratulations...

I will Deborah, thanks!

Some think that us people who live above Albany are attached to Canada too... eh??

Don't know what this is, but it sounds like fun. Wish we could go. But we'll be down in Sept so can't do it again in Dec. We'll have to wait until we move down in just one and a half more years.....yeah.

My brother said he's retiring at the end of this year. He said he's had enough. He'll be moving to Jacksonville. My uncle Teddy just put money down on a place in Bradenton, on the water....so he will be moving down soon. Casey and Brittany want to move to Florida too. I can't wait until we're all there.

I thought she had Peggy home with her already. I thought she said that she was taking her back.

Deborah, we're confused. Please clarify....where is Peggy now and where is she going to soon? Thanks.

This is fascinating stuff. I love it. Hey, maybe the Trolls will meet up with some very nice and elegible Yoopers and have a great time together. I hope so. I sounds like lots of fun. You're going to have the best time ever.

The commercial I saw on TV showed Mackinac Island. Very nice. I'll be looking forward to your FB posts and pics so that I can live vicariously thru you. I'm not going anywhere until the end of September. So your trip will be like my vaca too.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I will Deborah, thanks!

OH YEAH.....this is such VERY GOOD news. Tell Heather we're happy for her.

Nana is next....and Jackie.

Ian and Monica found the jobs that they wanted. Now Heather too. Nan and Jackie need jobs that they will love too....and John needs to retire!

Yes...when???? Enquiring minds want to know!

Hello all!

I am here....getting more anxious as I now know that Dad's flight has landed at MCO & he should be off the plane by now, headed to pickup his luggage, then off to get the car rental. He's coming to my office to pick up the keys to my house. He'll head there to rest/eat/ until I get off work. I'll drive home, drop off my car (might as well use the rental) and then we're off to dinner w/ Will, Mickey & Momma Boyd (Mick's mom).

Tomorrow, we're off to Port Richey to go see a man about a car I found one that I like (2010 Ford Focus with less than 19,000 miles), so we're going to go see if we can test drive it.

We're hoping then to meet up with our "cousins" (not blood, but family non-the-less) that live in St Pete.
