Vacation

I'm off to Estes Park, CO with my family ! We're going on vacation. I'll be back Tuesday :). Hasta la Vista!

Friday, Aug. 8--We're going to Grease"!!

I will purchase a block of tickets (which each of you can then reimburse me for--sorry...) for FRIDAY, AUGUST 8 for everyone who leaves me a note here on this blog telling me they want to attend! Please let me know by WEDNESDAY, AUG. 6. I will purchase the tickets on that day.

I am going to send new blog invitations to the people who rarely/never post comments on the blog. If any of you wish to use additional contact avenues, be my guest.

Hey! Where did everyone go?

Apparently that "book talk" post was a conversation-killer! Please come back! Check back in and tell us what you're up to.

book talks

I was getting caught up on the blog this evening, and I see that several threads of discussion have touched on books, so I am officially moving that discussion HERE.

Check in and tell us what you've been reading, then give it a "thumbs up" or a "thumbs down." I trust you'll be much more creative with your rating systems than thumbs, however.

I am really pushing "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer. If you like drama and mystery, you'll enjoy it! If you enjoy romance, you'll LOVE it. If you like science fiction/fantasy, you'll love it. If you like reading about fabulous high school aged characters--many of whom drive the best cars--you'll get a kick out of this book. Harry Potter movie fans--FYI: one of the main characters in Twilight is a vampire named Edward Cullen, and the actor portraying him is Rob Pettin-something-or-other--the incredibly gorgeous actor who played Cedric Diggory. 

Goodbye everyone!

I'm leaving for vacation tomarrow! (7/9/08)
But I will be back in like 9 days!
Bye!

Happy Independence Day!

Take a moment and search your memory files for information you remember about the birth of our nation from our study of Johnny Tremain.

There--that's enough time!

I hope everyone has a SAFE and FUN-FILLED Fourth of July.  I probably won't do anything  special during the day, but I'm planning to be at the country club for dinner and fireworks in the evening. What about the rest of you? Check in and tell us how your holiday went.

Hugs and Sparklers ( too bad they're illegal in Salina!!)
