MUST HAVE STRONG STOMACH FOR GROSSNESS AND LAUGHING YOUR HEAD OFF!


Being a pilot and having done aerobatic flying myself, I can truly appreciate this video. I even have a story myself doing one of this maneuvers. But in my case I did it to another pilot who had gone to the back of the plane to fix something. I did a lovely barrel roll and watched him do a barrel roll himself, rolling freely about the cargo area. It was pretty funny too.



 
Now, did you notice her feet running amok in mid-air! Toooo Funny. Then did you notice the other girl, who didn't know what to do afterward? It smelt so bad, she buried her nose into her arm! HaaaaHaaaaaHaaa.
But, I question the pilot, was he not aware that she was already sick! So why would he have been so oblivious to the poor girl, cause every one knows the smell of puke is not something you'd want in close corridors. 

The cockpit  would now smell gross:disgusting, repellent,repulsive, abhorrent, loathsome, foul, nasty, obnoxious, sickening, nauseating, stomach-churning, yuck, icky. Yep, that explains the situation.


Just thought I  would "throw" this your way and share some good times, good times with you. LOLROL

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!

It's that time of year again. ASTRA a local Theatre group here in my area  has started the new production for this years preformance of "Joseph King of Dreams."  I'm on the set production right now and boy it is ALOT of work. We work  four to five times a week, putting in 4-5 hrs at a time, working on the sets.

At one of the meetings the director asked for something that a child could run around on the stage with and pretend to be a goat. She suggested we design and paint a piece of wood. Then we talked about maybe a wall quilt of sorts. Then Nancy, the set director,  had brought a head of a lama puppet in, and as I looked at it, I thought "you know, bathrooms rugs could be used for the material of the goat, add some horns to the head of the lamb, cut and rework the head and we might just have what we need."



 So here is my final prop. Took two tank bathroom rugs, sewed together. Cut down lama neck, and used  remaining piece to make a tail. Added horns. Tah Dah! One goat to be placed over  the back of a child on all fours playing like a goat. Pretty good, huh?

NO THIS IS NOT A ZOO~IT'S A GOLF COURSE!

We went out golfing Sat. with some friends, to a golf course nearby called High Ciders. Look how massive this tree is compared to the men, and the golf cart. I love this tree.


After the first 9 holes you drive by the club house. But, on this day they were sitting up for a wedding so we actually had to drive through the center isle to get out to the 10th hole. How funny is that!

This is MY ball on the 12th hole.


And this is how much further I drove it over everyone else. Go Margie, Go Margie, it's my birthday, it's my birthday. And of course, I'm doing my dance thing as I'm singing this.

This is an eagle's nest, right in the middle of one of the fairways! They said last yr. there was 3 baby eagles in their.




This golf course had wood engraved surprises through-out the course. Here is a mother bear with a cub. They also had wooden eagles carved around different areas too.


Don't you just want to go pet these furry little geese!


Momma, and Papa would not allow that! But look how close they are to our cart path. They don't even move when you are 3 ft. from them.


Now here we have a mother duck with 12 of her babies! I tell ya, this was like being at a Zoo. I actually hated hitting my ball sometimes for fear of hitting one of the many babies around.




Are these not the cutest things. I can't tell you how much new life we saw at this golf course.
 We had such a great day golfing: Sunshine, I played well, good friends,  beautiful surroundings, sweet new life everywhere. Good times, good times.

grrrrrreeAAATTTT MOTHER'S DAY!!!

Yesterday was a great day. Every mother should have this kind of day.

My youngest daughter is taking a culinary class at school, so she got up and made breakfast, oven baked blueberry maple stuffed french toast, with shirred eggs . WOW. You could have gone to the finest restaurant to have such a breakfast. The table was set with my bumble bee doll and flower candle holders. And for a special treat, she made a chocolate heart. My other daughter made a cake for after dinner that night. Talk about a day of food, and calories!

No dishes, no cooking, or cleaning, with delicious meals. An afternoon of movies. What more could a mother wish for?









Oh, this is a little piggy my youngest daughter made from the lemon she used in the french toast.

An exhilarating off-road quad bike expedition over one of New Zealand’s most rugged coastal environments.

 Best Excursion Ever   This truly was a highlight of our many adventures in traveling the world. We had the opportunity to go on a six hour ...
