This thread made a comeback! I'm so proud! Let me sum up:
Leisa, cool pics!!!!! How exciting and fulfilling your work must be!
Pete, be safe and have a good trip! Check in if you are able!
Childhood memories....hmmmmmm......some of my fondest are of Disney. My Grandparents were snowbirds and went to the Keys every winter. We would go visit them and then head to WDW pretty much every year. I grew up in Annapolis, so my summers were filled with the beach. I used to swim everywhere!
My other favorite summertime activity was to go to my Aunt and Uncle's farm in Jarettesville, MD. They lived in a gorgeous 200 year old stone farmhouse that had a pond and several other "houses" that once had been slaves' quarters. The main house was quirky....the lights flickered, it had all sorts of nooks and cubbys to hide in. When something strange would happen in the house, my Uncle told me it was the ghost of Ben, a slave who, although lived a hard life, had a gentle spirit and loved me dearly. He was saying 'Hi'. One of the cubbies was actually a magical transporter. I could sit in there and go wherever I wanted. Another country, another time...my Uncle would join me...we traveled the world together! He was the first person to ever take me fishing, he taught me about all the animals on his farm and together we explored the woods surrounding his home. My uncle died when I was 14 and my aunt has sold the house. I just know that one day I'll go back and take a look around, but for now, those are some of my most cherished memories.

. I had girl's night last night (aka book club) and band practice the night before, so I suppose I should be present for my DDs party 
You all are more than welcome to join the fun! 
..figuring it was a GIR!...YUK!
Nope..just me. I swear..I had to resist from running out on the field and hugging him.
I was good though.. didn't move..just gave him the "chin" back. That's "cool" right?.
will climb in my lap and help me push the buttons 
. But I just had to comment on this one! My younger brother likes to tell people that I scarred him for life when I picked on him. I will have to show him this. The worst thing I can remember doing to him was tricking him into eating a big spoon of Crisco telling him that it was vanilla icing!
I just won the auction.
