I just love visiting zoos!

 

[Cesar R M]

Yep, the next car I get that doesn't have a regular antenna, I'll probably buy the short one to put a Mickey topper on as a hood ornament...!!!
Too bad this one never came to fruition...

Cant you hire someone to make it for you?
with the advent of 3d printers.. it shouldnt be that hard.

 

[Gabe1]

Well that was fun! I was asleep. Got up and took a walk after the calm.
River is just up to the bank and just leaching onto the riverwalk. Wooba.
Will be interesting to see what dawn will bring as the water comes on down the river. Joy Joy. Not thinking I'll need to water the little plants (if they haven;t drowned)

Yep had a nap. If @MinnieM123 was in town she could keep me company.
Dang! That was a storm.

I still have nightmares from when I lost sight of my older ds at Disney for a few moments. We have a place in each park to meet up but I'm glad it didn't come to needing to use it. I can't imagine how I'd handle having to have to get help to find one of mine back then

Disney Parks are about the best if that is possible to loose a kid. Find a CM any CM. They silently find them. It is always helpful for the parent to know what they were dressed in though. Reason why though I never thankfully needed it I took a picture of them every morning before we left our room.

Yeah 5 years although it doesn't seem that long. I could see how Father's Day would be tough for you this year.

Yeah I am wondering that too. My Dads funeral was back to back with Fathers Day so it kinda got lumped together, so this year will be a first though not technically. We shall see.

 

[Gabe1]

Oh wow....5 years doesn't seem that long anyway...that's still pretty fresh. It took me somewhere around 10 years before I didn't bawl my eyes out at any story having to do with breast cancer. My mom has been gone for almost 15 years now.

Yep. I wonder how women deal with PINK. It is a wonderful philanthropic cause but it does slap one upside the head at every turn with the reminder without warning. I have a friend who is a survivor. Pink was her favorite color always. Now she cringes. I understand.

You know, the bad thing of living in a touristic town is.. almost all the vacation packages offered by mayor airlines or travel companies.. are for your hometown lol XD

I'm not that far if kept in perspective from Chicago. Doable. I've had some very lovely tourist times in Chicago. I was born in Chicago and remember living there next to my Grandma, Aunt and above them my Aunt and Uncle along with my cousins. A quaint memory. So when I go back though not to the same area (way too dangerous of an area now) I love to visit as a tourist.
Sometimes we forget to look in our own backyards for goodtimes.

 

[Gabe1]

Looks delicious!!!
Glad you had an awesome Mother's Day...!!!

Thanks. I treasure days like these.

 

[Gabe1]

that looks like near Italy.

He said France. Someday I'll have to try that. Maybe in a less crowded time like this. France always seems so congested when I am there lately.

 

[Gabe1]

send some rain will you?
There has been rain forecasts for the past 3 days.. and not even a tiny drop has dropped.
getting kinda dry.

Dang we just got hit hard. Winds 75 mph. Calm now that it has woken me up. Adrenaline is a funny thing. Dawn will tell.

 

[Gabe1]

I've never been able to sleep in any type of aircraft.

I think at 6 am being up since 1 am I drift at best. I do try. I take my travel pillow, my infant flannel throw-slam my head against the wall of the plane and try to rest. Sometimes I think I kinda drift. But I take whatever half baked kinda of rest I can especially on a Disney vacy.

 

[Gabe1]

I need to be adopted

I had two Margaritas. You'd think I should have hit the deck. Yet no. Uber was our friend.

 

[Gabe1]

Just like that! It was so funny!

Any Pic's?

 

[Gabe1]

I hope you got your rest in. Hubby and I slept most of yesterday. We have been exhausted. The naps really helped.

Keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers.

 

[Gabe1]

Good for you! Once you start, it actually gets easier. I dreaded ironing and packing but it didn't take long at all.

I remember when my kids were small it was overwhelming, we use to go for a little over two weeks. It was on me to pack a family of 4, clean house, get dogs to kennel etc etc. By the time I did all the wash, packing for 4, purchasing what I needed, shipping what was necessary I remember one trip being so tired after work and starting up with vacation duties thinking this is it I'm done. Ha! My love of Disney didn't let that happen but it is sometime overwhelming to have all those lists for a family.

 

[Gabe1]

Guess who threw away her Dr. on Mother's Day, me. I had to have a margarita with the Tex Mex.

Woot! Live Life Woman! Glad you had a wondrous Mothers Day.

 

[Gabe1]

I just heard a boom! Thought it was gone.

Going to TRY and fall asleep if it is going to hit again. We are down a car and I will be the Uber-Taxi Lady tomorrow. It is always something right?

 

[Figgy1]

I get that. I am 5'2". Most people are taller than me too. It's ok. The best things come in small packages.

Yes we do

 

[Figgy1]

Fresh tomatoes will be good!

Our farmers market opens this weekend, not that I think there will be tomatoes but it is encouraging that with all the junky weather we have had things are growing! Actually over the fall/winter a new covered pavilion was built for the farmers market so there is a big grand opening celebration too. @figmentfan423 when will your farmer's market journeys begin?

Guess where I'll be Saturday morning It's the first of the season so I'm not expecting much. The other ones don't open for a few weeks
