re: Life in a Luxury Box

I was as fortunate about a month ago. Our evening then was courtesy of a local bank. I used to think that a seat on the mezannine at County Stadium was luxury. Woooo! No comparison!

Maybe if I win the lottery I will pick up a suite or two to entertain all of my friends,

re: Roof Rakes

2007/8 was one of the busiest roof rake years I ever had. We sold out before Christmas. But we have them in stock now and I know we will sell out before it even snows based on last years winter.

Check out our site http://roofrake.com. I also have another site calle www.telescoping-pole.com that has some snow roof rakes as well but it has a lot of other pole related accessories that need to be telescopic.

Best,

re: Waiting for the Parade

rascalninja — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 19:02:38 GMT

I have three issues with the parade.

1. The oversized kids (40+ adults) that sit in their chairs in the front row and don't let kids sit there.

2. The kids that think they can go 1/4 mile each way to take candy from other kids, just blatantly go up to parade people asking for candy and the parents who just let their kids do that.

3. The parade people who had the brilliant idea of throwing candy out the back of their vehicle in the middle of the parade route (McDonalds) and then having kids scramble into the parade picking up all the loot.

(I am one of those people who try to reserve a spot only to have my kids (and whatever other kids are around) to have a front row seat. My wife was there at 7:30 PM and there were no seats left.

That's us...showing at the parade right before it starts. We will be going to the Tosa parade tomorrow morning. Park at Mayfair and then walk a few blocks and set camp somewhere in the median. The kids will get candy, we will get sprayed with water, cover our ears a few times, and, when is all over, go home. I guess some people see it as a "tailgate" of sorts: they go early and claim their spot, and hang out until is time...no time for that. So I will be getting there right before, and leave right after...Happy Fourth Of July!

I love Door County! I usually stay in Bayleys Harbor when I go. Will have to try Washington Island next time!

Kimberly...

Do the bike tour of the island. Very cool.

If you want a really excellent adventure you must consider traveling to the island in the WINTER.

Nothing like ice and heaving seas to test your mettle for island life.

BTW - If my recollection is correct there were more than 6 graduating seniors from Washington Island this year....

Could it have been someone's cell phone ring? I haven't exactly heard one like that, but there are some nature-sound rings that are really pretty accurate! Just a thought...

But wait, there's more! Some cats do not handle the anesthesia very well and come home deaf as a result. One of our cats now lives in a silent world and we have to soften her cat chow with a bit of water to make it easier to chew.

Hi Kimberly,

I can't resist an opportunity! I am reading your blog and must respond!

(After I browse through the shoes, then I move over to the Coach and handbag department where I drool over the latest handbag that I'm not going to buy for myself because everyone else already has it -- the last thing I want is to be just like everyone else. It's the same story as the shoes, I'm also always on the lookout for The Handbag of My Dreams).)

I am a sewer of one of a kind purses and more! I use fabrics and make sure pockets are inside. I welcome you to visit my site and let me know if you are interested in designing a handbag of your dreams!

Thanks for your interesting blogs.

re: Destination: Rivera Maya

DaniLaz — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 14:31:03 GMT

So as you know we've been to Mexico a handful of times. I've never been to Riviera Maya, but if it is anywhere near the Mayan ruins, you have to go see that. It is BEAUTIFUL! and the history is so interesting. Also for Peter flying, you should have him call either his doctor, or up at Jerome Drugs and see if they can suggest anything. I have a friend who hates flying and just gets a couple anti-anxiety pills for their trip. I know there's other stuff out there as well. Hope you have a wonderful time. I'm so jealous!!

We went to the Riviera Maya last Jan. with the whole family, the kids are 16 and 17. It is a great destination since it is only a 2 hour flight. Make sure you sign up for a private transfer, don't take a bus to your resort, it will be a better ride. We did a snorkelling tour with Adventuras. The cenotes in that area are beautiful. The tour was the best ever! Our guide was wonderful. The town of Playa del Carmen is also a good excursion. It is a quaint town with shopping by local vendors, you get a feel of the Mexican people. Hope you have a great trip!

You know, there's always the chance that their encounter was the start of something special...

Ditto on the Panera second kitchen. It's the first stop my daughter and I make when the spouse is traveling.

Jeanne — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 16:47:52 GMT

Kimberly, I did the same thing last spring! I whipped through all the seasons available on DVD in about a week...and I wanted more. I love that show! I didn't go the extra mile in ordering Showtime, but I did buy a few episodes through some online service.

That show rocks!

I'll keep away from the next one and let someone else have a crack at it. Come on people, don't be shy!

I will have to go to the library and do some research on this one.
