Vacations are Strange

By ShadesofBlueArt written 6/23/08 6:10 PM, published 6/23/08 6:11 PM

Sometimes vacations are just strange or your surroundings are a bit weird. Like our Motel manager just an all round off the wall hometown kind of guy. He told us about this place to go fishing for flyingshark and other flyingfish but it seems that they would not stay in the water long enough for us to catch any. flyingshark2 The people in this small mountain town rode to work like this bronco_dino guy and we saw this lady going_for_a_ride  to the store. After all this I think I will stay at home and watch Wild riverfrog Kingdom on my telly all week. What cha think?

My day with the manantees

Therefore We are

By ShadesofBlueArt written 5/26/08 6:08 AM, published 5/26/08 6:09 AM

In our beginning we lived in paradise one of my uncles 5 times removed on my mothers side redtop came running with the news that cousin Harry was beside himself after telling a joke about evloution  and thought it was so funny , but I being the thoughtful one did not think it was so funny that the tall hairless pink skinned far removed cousins were not related to us at all. I'll have to be more watchful in the future.
