Geez Greta...what else can they do to you???? Never mind. I don't want an answer to that!

How about a big hug...and huge margarita...some sloppy dog kisses, and go to bed! And a big hug and some smooches from Jim.

Hi from me...I miss you! :hug:

Hiya chica - I was thinking of you tonight and wondering why you were so quiet! Can't talk to you till probably next weekend. It's another week from hell. Good thing Jim's back out to sea. I'm off to bed now. Thanks for the commiseration C and C.

Next weekend works...call me! ;)

I am doing just fine today! My 2 stepsons have been with us for the last 10 days. We have been camping, go carting, to the movies etc and I am pooped. I ove them very much but today they went to their moms for the next 2 weeks. That means hubb and I had some free time together! We went for our old fart drive and then lounged around!! I am very relaxed tonight! The phone only rang 1 time today!!!!(Knock on wood!!)I am doing great!!!:) :) :)

Twisting moo-stash and saying...wee! (That dar is french fer yup!):D

Backing away from Greta...Hi Greta...:Wave-Hello:

Kids are great (as long as they're returnable). Sounds like you had a nice time, Dorrie. I'm wildly jealous, I miss camping a lot! This is so dumb, but the other night, I smelled a skunk who'd plainly met his demise on the nearby road, and I caught myself smiling about it!

In college, I worked at a campground and some smells like that or a fire literally transport me to a happier, healthier time.

Hi Cindy.....I think the smell of a fire would really make me have a hankering for the campground!!
We saw 3 skunks in our travels at camp:yikes:

We are going again the 3rd week of August and I can't wait!!!:Excited: I am so excited!!!!!

I wanna go! I wanna go! Shotgun on the go-carts!:D

Fur-esh skunk! Now that's a smell you don't get every day! Aw! Take a deep breath! Doesn't get more outdoory then that! Here little black and white kitty!

What are you doing with you tail? (spray......)

SKUNK:yikes: I'M OUTTA HERE!!!:OuttaHere:


:D Dorrie!:D

Taffy - do not play with black and white kitties in campgrounds. Didn't anyone ever tell you that? I thought you were a good scout leader. Didn't get that badge, huh? Sheesh...

Stay away from Taffy :eek:

I dunno, Cindy, but I can't think of anything pleasing about the smell of a ..http://home.earthlink.net/~sal.pal/s...edshitless.gif..SKUNK!!!.....But, to each his own, I always say..:wink:

*making note to pick Taff up on way to campground Fri.* No roughing it w/DM tho. Bring chocolate and your'e in!!! :Starvin:

We've been going every Thurs ~Sun most of the summer... woohoo! Love those campfires. Even when it's 90 degrees, I must have an evening fire.

Me is excited too, Dorrie. :I-Agree:

I might just go get a campsite for a day and come home at bedtime, I seriously want a fire now! The condos here are soooo picky, they won't let me have a firepit in the yard and they have some annoying rule against putting my tent out there. They won't even turn the sprinklers off for me!:mad:

Hey Cin - come to Idaho. Over a million acres of land here is on fire. The whole state smells like a campfire. Just come visit me for a couple of days! :eek:

You can set up your tent in my backyard and I will turn off the sprinklers! In fact, I have 4 acres of trees...pick a couple to camp under! We've got some foxes out there, and there are even 4 bucks that have been sleeping out there at night!

WHY the nerve of those homeowners!!!! :Soapbox:

The best time is the Fall. Nothing like a sweatshirt, campfire and turning leaves....

Hey Cheryl!! Yikes, I heard about those fires..... Holy Cow...

Hey AMN... we should go camping at FG's!! Can Kevin and Dwayne come too? I know they are your TH beau's...:circlelove:

I get to go camping! Oh boy! Get this....I drop the hikers going on a 50 miler backpack trip off out in the boonies! We will camp the night before. I will fix dinner for 24 people at a WATERLESS camp. How fun. To get to this camp spot, you must drive 135 miles and the last 6 miles will be a fun rocky one lane road to the camp and trail head.

After breakfast, I wave so long and sit and read a book! I will spend the night and most of the next day there by myself in case someone needs to come out. It is the first day of these trips that are the hardest. After that they just need to suck it up and keep walking.

The only thing is...there was bear doo-doo a couple of weeks ago when we checked this camp out as I was getting out of the truck. :yikes:

Don't bears go for the sick, weak, and limpy kind?

So I will stay away from the cliff, not wander off,... maybe I just better read that book in the truck this trip!

Bring everyone!

Only on one condition -- they have to be able to cook their own food and keep their tent clean! Can they make coffee???? Oh yeah, and Holly likes to visit tents!

Ok...bring 'em on! ;)

I am doing good today...just so tired. Geez, I don't think I am ever going to beat this fatigue. It's got to be all this smoke in the air.

That's a good one, Sal! :D




Yer funny! I don't even own my tent anymore, it's out kayaking the wild west as we type.:(

How are we going to get you to beat this fatigue.

I have a tent you can borrow! And Holly loves to be a tent mate...oh never mind, you're not a dog person! Coffee will be ready in the morning!

Ain't gonna happen, I never borrow tents, too stinky! Mine smelled good, like ME!:Good-Luck:




ain't campin' in ID anyway!

Let me see...Cindy is not a dog person and doesn't like Country music!

Fine.....I won't hold it against you!

What's wrong with poor little puppies?

Didn't you have one as a kid?

Sounds like a country song in the making!:cool:

LOL, are you taking notes??

No critters in my house growing up, there were too many kids. Dogs are animals, animals are built for the outdoors, animals belong outdoors, not shedding, licking and crapping in my house or tent! Seriously, they're fine for others, I just don't feel the need or desire for a pet.

She doesn't want dog hair on her expensive pillow, right Cheryl??

Hey..my friend just got the same pillow, only it was marked down to $24.99 at their big sale. Plus, no tax last Sat. hardy ~ ha~ har!!!

I'll pick ya up in my RV Taffy. It's for big girls who don't like Bear poo. I wouldn't camp anywhere there were poo piles. Didn't you ever hear about the Grizzly Man who lived around and studied Grizzley Bears???\

THey ate him and he is NEVER MORE.. *says the Raven*

WHAT!?!!

*getting in car to go ram through Kohl's front windows*

Can't be the same one! No way!

Taffy's mouth drops open! gasp* DOGS are animals?

yep. it took me a week to get over that monkeys were too. :o

<---hands taffy a kleenex

Now I'm very sad. I always felt a kinship with AMN, and now I learn that she doesn't like pets. I have 3 dogs, how am I ever going to get her to stalk me????

I am literally getting a picture in my mind of you doing just that. Might as well RAM the window; you already tried to take me out. haha :Funny-Post: I'm sure HER pillow was the new and improved version too!!! :Poke: :Dancing-Chilli:

Say it ain't so!!!! :Sob: You mean..... *gulp* MY weenie dogs aren't...aren't .... I can't say it!!! *DM running from room*

*easing face into corner*

I'm an ogre.:o

Maybe we should get Cindy a puppy!:)

Maybe we better start with a stuffed animal.:rolleyes:

I have the perfect one for her.:p

A dalmatian with two heads!:eek:

:D :D :D :D :D

Oh, great. Now they're cloning Taffy????:eek: :thud: :Sob: :OuttaHere:

How do I feel today, you ask? Like I've been ridden hot and put away wet.:p :p

Indeed, it is crappola hot out there! If only those eedjits could really predict the weather, by now we'd at least be getting a decent t-storm! I'm hoping that the 3rd cool shower is the charm!

ROFLMAO!! That was a good one Cin! :D :D :D :D

Here's a picture of Holly...isn't she cute?

Yeah! Really funny Cin! I am so laughing....

I love Holly!

If I were a Tent Dweller, which I'm NOT, Holly could bunk with me anytime her little heart desired.

Will she keep the hornets away?:eek:
