sorry ... storms blew in ... just got back!
maui
ALL my life I have dreamed of visiting Ireland (Danny Boy is one of my all time favorite songs) ... if I can get away from the Drs. and the rest of the bs I just may take YOU up on it.
We will be moving within the year (I hope) to New Hampshire (which IS Heaven along with Vermont) and next year you will have to visit as soon as I am moved in. I want you to come during the Fall - you will not want to leave. It is so beautiful up there. The people are the nicest too. Very laid back and they have a live and let live attitude. The state motto is "Live Free or Die" ... and that's how I feel. I thought you would like my sig line
Hi Shell
affirmation comes from within ...
not at the expense of another.

Nobs...next fall then. Prepare to have me as a houseguest for a few days, lol. And Im serious about Ireland. I just told roomie that you invited she and I (hubby too, if he wants to go) and she said to tell you "thank you for including her"...and that you are definetly welcome to come along. How fun!!! I think Springtime would be great, dont you? We will plan it...I will have roomie as her cousin what month is available, and we will start planning it...saving up for the plane tickets (me anyway, lol). And Shell....offer is open to you too. Just us gals! Like a sleepover, but in Ireland

storms again
Oooh ... Springtime in Ireland ... now that is something to look forward too. When I get back from NH I will sell my ass off so we can go pubbing and stuff.
And I AM serious about you coming to NH with Roomie and hubby too! You will love it, maui - land of Harley's up there. We will have plenty of room too. I'll take you all to your first Pumpkin Festival and you will love the yard sales and antiquing. I know all the great spots to visit because I've been vacationing there for years. We used to have friends there but they moved to Florida - but we now have family there. Last month Mr. Nobs' sister moved from Florida to NH (her husband got a good job offer there) and she loves it. My sister-in-law and her teenaged daughter are into horses and own a horse and live on a farm. So we can go see the horse if you want - you can even ride it. My neice rides in competitions. Now, if you come in Winter we can snowboard and snow mobile - you will like that! It will be a little shock to you system but it's good to do something different once in a while.
Oh Maui, the leaves are so beautiful in Fall - I am taking my Mavica and my laptop and I will send you pics. Where we stay there is a modem and I usually get online every night and/or early in the morn if I have time. I will email you before we leave on vacation and tell you where we're staying. I am so psyched - I get like this every Sept. before vacation

Hi Shell
We had some nasty thunderstorms pass through.
They are over (for now anyway) but I really hate them. Even though I have a surge protector I shut down the computer. I hate to see something happen to it.
Well, Mr. Nobs is on his way home from work so i am gonna go get a snack ready for him.
I hope you have a great holiday!

Nobs...that sounds so wonderful! Snowboarding! Wonder what folks will think, seeing a sarong clad lady with long dark hair (streaked with gray, lol) cascading down a mountain slope on a snowmobile? LOL! Fall sounds good too...so thats the plan, Sam.....spring, Ireland, fall your place, yes? Can Kel come too? We wanna rope cowboys and laugh like school girls....and all of us will have a blast, while we can. Life is too short....and I look forward to spring

The water off the coast of So. Cal is in the 70's. Try Laguna Beach for clear water or LaJolla Cove near San Diego.
