No Las Vegas? Interesting. This was VERY informative. LOL. There should be something on there about being published.......just for us.
How about "Driven all day and all night to get somewhere."
or
"Made love in a car" Those might be cool additions.
I want to hear about those wild mushrooms. I mean - EEK! And how did you swim with all those critters? And tell, tell about the rescue!!!
Chris, I don't think I can talk about the wild mushrooms without getting arrested.... KIDDING! Some people gave my parents a bunch of mushrooms they'd either grown or harvested in the wild when I was a kid. I do not remember seeing any pretty colors after injesting, so I think they were just white button mushrooms.
Jose and I scuba dive, so we've been in the water with a lot of marine life. The barracuda were the scariest--they don't move somehow, and they just STARE. The black-tipped reef sharks didn't care that we were next to them. And we fed stingray in Stingray City in the Caymans. The coolest thing we ever saw was a manta ray--nearly got bent over that one.
And the rescue was lame. I was lifeguarding at a YMCA, and some kid got a cramp and started burbling in the deep end, so I jumped in and swam with him about three feet to the edge--no big!
Let's add one about being published, Jen! Just for the fun of boldfacing it!
Merry Christmas, Tracy. Hope you have a nice relaxing time.....and get to do some more things that you can put in bold print.
You've done some very cool things, Tracy! I must steal this and put it on my blog. :-)
Merry Christmas, Jen! I tried to comment on your blog again, but Blogger won't let me--I have no idea why!
Steal away, Sharron! That's what these memes are for....
