We'll miss you! Get those assignments done!

Yeah! Lovely place! Congrats on finally setting the date!

I don't know of anyone, sorry. But I wanted to wish you lots of luck!

Wow! Sounds like you had a great time! I too have a MAJOR problem with heights. Love water and anything related to water though. Can't wait for pics!

Thanks everybody. CM, oh my! Sending good healing thoughts, along with "calm, meditation" thoughts. Lots of guys really like needlepoint, very relaxing. I usually give the work away at Christmas. I used to crochet, but my hands don't like to do that much anymore . With this particular pattern it takes 3 hours to do 1 1/2 inches. Sooo, to ge about 3 yards of lace takes me about 3 years , LOL! Especially since I got a horse... AND, since I spend lots of time on a certain horse forum... Well, the result

I tried the link, but I couldn't get it to work. This probably has something to do with my firewall, lots of links don't work. I can get there, just have to go straight though. So, how can I refer and give you points without the refer link?

Quote: Any of you guys build horse jumps in your backyard using garbage cans and sticks? Yep! Did that too! My Dad had several saw horses, I made jumps with them, I also had one that I named, painted, and stuck some rags on the rear, and rope on the front...

My Mom doesn't want Christy to run loose in the yard. It seems she creates hoof prints, and dips in the dirt. (It's DIRT!) Oh well. She can do short lopes and gallops in her corral. If I had know she wouldn't be allowed to run loose, I would have insisted on a larger corral. Didn't work with her today. Just tooooo hot and humid. And now, I had better go feed her, she has been whinnying for over an hour. And it is din din time.

LOL! I've never read those books. Will have to get them! (I graduated HS in 1973 .) My bike's name was Silver, had nice reins (leather shoe ties .) I have bad knees now because I spent tons and tons of time galloping around the house whinnying. I even pinned a dishcloth on the butt of my jeans! (Pretty white tail!) LOL!

Quote: Thennnn to add insult to injury, my bag of old fashioned potato chips got soaked thru and weren't worth eating. I think that annoyed me more than anything LOL! Soggy chips, yuck! I got stuck way out on a hiking trip once, I was soooo soaked by the time I got back to camp. I felt like a mop.
