Hey @PUSH , Where do you want this man? (arms full of drywall)
Put it in my trunk if you know what I mean.

PS- If you don't know what I mean, I mean that I'd like it carefully placed in the back of my car. There's not enough room for it in the front seat.

Nemo, it's past your curfew! I've been worried sick! You need to learn to call if you're not going to be in on time! Can you imagine what @Megalodumb is going to say? :mad:

She probably would like Anne of Green Gables - I'll show them to her next time we are at the library. Ha - yeah - not too up on the younger books released in the 90's - what with being old and all.
I was going to start this off with "Funny Story", but then it occurred to me that it may just be me that thinks it's funny, so...Story: A few years back when my girls were in College we planned what we figured would be one of our last family summer vacations trips. They convinced me that we should go to Prince Edward Island because the wanted to see the house from Anne of Green Gables. Being male, I never read any Anne of Green Gables books so they pretty much had me convinced that this Anne was a real person that had lived on PEI and had done something spectacular, but I didn't know what that might be and wasn't about to read about it to find out. Anyway, I drove from Vermont to Cavendish, PEI. about 800 miles. Only when we got on board the ship/ferry that took us to the Island did it get reveled that this was a fictional character. What was even more surreal is that they had tours of "Anne's" house green gables and all as if there was really such a person. Turns out that the house was a place where Lucy Montgomery, the author had grown up. During the tour we were all brought to a spot to look into a room that would have been "Anne's" room if Anne had been an actual person that actually existed.

The area that this place was in was really not very developed as a tourist place considering how much they promoted it. The motel we had to stay in (as far as I could tell the only motel) had no air conditioning and a wobbly ceiling fan.

If you look at the picture in the upper left hand corner you will see a spot that looks like an open pasture but if you look just a little closer you will be able to see that it is a fairway on a golf course that surrounds the Green Gabled house. I had the pleasure of bouncing a golf ball off the side of the famous green edged place due to a errant tee shot. It felt good.

Do we have a theme for this weekend? I think we do but the ideas were flying so fast and furious I forgot what we settled on.

Eventually can we do ANY theme that allows me to use this:

Sounds good to me. Do you want to combine the Chips pic with @PUSH 's idea and all of us use the same avatar pic for a weekend?

I've been to that place too. I love PEI!

Sooooo Sea World was a blast yesterday. Rode Manta again - I LOVE that ride, and did the new Antarctica thing. I was a little disappointed in that, but the penguins were neat. We have some friends from Jacksonville staying with us right now, but they'll be leaving this afternoon. We're taking them to a couple of our favorite state parks this morning, then tonight we're meeting up with my sister and her family at the Poly.
