Hey guys. This update comes all the way from EPCOT. We had a relaxing Friday that began with breakfast at the Polynesian, then an afternoon in the pool, where Lizzy had a blast with all the kids at the pool party. London and i just tried from getting our hair wet, we're so lame!!!
We got all fancied up and ready for our night at the Irish pub when as we were on the Disney
bus the heavens opened up and everyone huddled under the cover bus stop for almost 15 mins till the rain slacked off enough to make a mad dash to restaurant. The entertainment was great. They had step dancers and live music. The food was so-so. Muscles were good and so was dessert. My entree was bland. My friend who has recently been to Ireland said that most of their food is bland. But the pub we frequent back home is delish.

Today we are interested in a few attractions in future world before heading to our fave part of EPCOT, World Showcase. We're having dinner in Italy.

Sounds like a lot of fun!!! We had a blast when we went there, that was almost 20 years ago. Enjoy your time there!!!
 
My dad, grandson and I just got back from a breakfast with Rosie the Riveter. It was a members only event at an air museum we are members of. The actress playing Rosie the Riveter came out dancing to the tune of, Rosie the Riveter, and she made a brief stop by a table to check her cell phone. I whispered over to my family and said, "Rosie it texting"! I had no idea they had cell phones back in the 40's! Ha ha! She really wasn't texting, I am sure she was glancing at the time since she was on a schedule, couldn't help but notice. It was a really nice event and she was telling the history of World War II and the work they did. The museum was also celebrating the 70th anniversary of the ending of World War II. We enjoyed it!

Unfortunately, hubby got called into work at the last minute even though we had reservations for this. This is the first Saturday he has had to work in over 6 months. It's all good, he will be home soon!

I hope you all are having a Merry Day!!!

Good Morning from beautiful Vermont !
Garage sale day, going to two vans so we have lots of room for all the loot we will be gathering. (6 of us going)
Supposed to get quite warm today with a bit of rain but over all nice.
I feel so much better this morning since sleeping almost 10 hours, something I rarely do but apparently needed this time.

Hope you all have a fantastic day !!

Good morning, everyone!

We're at mid-August, and it appears that everyone is getting into the Fall/Halloween spirit! I snapped these photos yesterday at Homesense:

I'm sure all of you have been seeing signs of the next "season" popping up everywhere! I am enjoying it. For now, I will use this to contain my excitement until the debut of something magical.

Kim and I are heading to Cornwall for the day/night. Hope you all have a wonderful Saturday!

That sounds great! I'm so sorry Wayne had to miss it. I can't quite picture Rosie dancing, but she looks like the type who could do anything she puts her mind to!

Good evening,
I am on vacation, again!!! I am very tired and we have a very, very busy weekend ahead of us. My wife's family from Canada are coming down for the weekend to celebrate my MIL's 60th birthday party. Her birthday was back in March, but this is the first time they have been available to visit. So I may be sparse in these parts the next few days.

I hope you all had a great day.

Goodnight, everyone!
