Hello all of our boxin buddies! Sorry I/we have been so absent lately, my world has been such a blur between work and home, but wanted to fill y'all in

(Holly), We are having a BUCKAROO!!!!

The ultrasound was **THE** most amazing thing ever. We have a little exhibitionist, because he sure wasn't shy about anything!
Due date July 20.

Will keep everyone posted. Been a very easy pregnancy, no sickness, no weight gain yet (and Tuesday hits the 20 week halfway mark)... sure hope the tides don't change, for I am very thankful!

I am so sorry to hear this for you ... it's never easy to hear someone has passed.

I got a call this morning about a friends father who had passed away last night, but they were expecting it anytime for the most part.

Is it worth anything?

I don't know, but it's certainly worth something to me! Besides the fact that it is just way cool, it also reminds me of one of my most fun letterboxing trips :-). The way the thunderstorm had exposed the arrowhead right in the middle of the trail for me to find was special. And I saw so many animals and other neat things on that trip, not to mention some great stamps.

I love the camo duct tape.

I suggest that when you plant a box covered with camo tape you consider if it looks like an explosive device and if, by its location, it is likely that law-enforcement will think it is one. I believe a camo taped box should not generally be planted in urban settings.

Your Humble Servant,
OBJuan

Thanks !!! I am so freaked out. He was a very good man and a good boss.

ALL this stress we are under, I am SURE had an impact. GOSH .... him and I had a long conversation on the phone the other day too...when I told him I needed some time to go clean my expedition out and go test drive another .... we talked about a few things.....

I feel like I am dreaming and I keep questioning myself because I have called people and posted this and then I think NO this is not real this is a dream...

WOW

RIP Bob .................. you were a very good guy ! I will miss you !

OH yes it was unexpected...... he scuba dives and is a extremely active man ... No clue at all about any issues ... I think he was actually doing things around the house and just "went".... he had plans with his wife for the evening ...... just his time......... just sad and another stress to add to the list !

Thanks ~BOB~ .... you are a wonderful friend !

Neither did I! Even though Quantum Physics is way above my level of thinking, it is an interesting subject for me to read other peoples opinions about. Also, I have seen What The Bleep Do We Know. As stated above, I could not make much sense out of it, however, I mainly watched it becaus Marlee Matlin (Deaf Actress) was in it. The movie itself was very interesting though and left me with some things to think about.

Wow, there are lots of interesting trackers listed for March and I am overloaded on all fronts. The Colon tracker sounds like a lot of fun, but I just can't do it...double darn!
I finished two sets of LTCs today, and the third is about half done. Really wish I was ahead of the game enough to do the Colon exchange.

Say, thanks a lot, this sounds like it may be something I will want to listen to. Just have to figure out how to get it set up, or on my favorites, or whatever it needs to be done. I'm listening to it as I type, but don't know yet if it was only the one song or not, nope, here comes another, woo hooo!!
Thanks Miss Moon, you're swell! Sure tellin' my age there, huh? ha ha

Check out http://www.wwhp.com/ (The Whip!!) It's in or near farmer City Ill. A guy in Montanna turned me on to it. Alternative country and what they called American roots music. They play some really cool stuff. Radio stations that play really decent music are few and far between in my never humble opinion.

What an awesome find! I've been listening to it for about an hour and the tunes are amazing. The local news is a bit amusing, as well (lol). Thank you MissMoon!!

I skipped class to go see the Woodstock movie. This was in a movie theatre in a SMALL town in Texas. It was me and one other woman who had her kid with her. As soon as the first nekkid skin appeared she grabbed the kid and left. I sat there all alone watching it. That was cool. I wonder if they even showed it again? lol

Being from Texas, I always feel a special love for Janis. I know all the same kinds of people she grew up with. I remember being a budding hippy among a town full of rednecks. I lived there. I can say rednecks. lol Her debut at the Monterey Pop Festival still gives me goose pimples.

I got such a warm and joyful feeling as I read this. You sound like you might be a Janis soul-mate (like Mrs. Muddy Paws). :-)
