flyangel2 2 #27 June 5, 2003 Gee, Frank must not love me, cause I didn't get anything in my in box I'll have to let him know that he missed some people. Yeah, like I don't know about the boogie Let's keep our fingers crossed that the weather is better for the weekend. Nothing like getting the gals all organized and then have it rain. Plus I've also organized 20 ways for Sunday. I want sunshine. See ya Saturday, I hope!May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
