#138

1. I remember, I remember when I could fill up my tank in my VW bug for $5.00 in 1979.
2. Dear mom, I want you to know I wish I could have said I love you and goodbye.
3. Is that my body in the mirror, when did that happpen!!???
4. I'm trying to resist the temptation of playing hooky from work, and going home early.
5. I'm saving a hug and kiss just for you!
6. If I made a birthday list a black leather jacket would definitely be on it!!!
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to margarita's on my patio (weekly thing), tomorrow my plans include a 4 hour bike ride on the harley and Sunday, I want (have) to go to play in our Praise Band at a different church, and them home to relax!

Domaine Chandon

San Francisco

We went to San Francisco this summer, and visited Sonoma/Napa Valley and some wineries. This is a picture taken in front of Domaine Chandon. They make sparkling wine here. It is a French winery, therefore they cannot call it Champagne. Back in the l930's all the wine makers around Europe held a conference and signed a treaty that unless you were from Italy, you could not call it Champage. Since the United States were in prohibition, they were not invited. So Champagne made in the states can be called Champagne. But Domaine Chandon still follows this treaty, and calls it's product Sparkling Wine.

Friday Fill-ins

I haven't done this in awhile, so here goes:


1. When will I be loved? One of my favorite Linda Ronstadt songs, and for singing Kareoke. Doesn't apply to me, I am veryyyy loved!

2. "The Shack" was the last good book I read. I've read lots of books, but this one really makes you think. I had to read it twice to really get it.

3. Everything has its beauty but I really can't see anything beautiful about snakes. I really dislike them!

4.Spaghetti is what I had for dinner. Probably for leftovers tonight, too.

5. I'd like your honest opinion, even though it might not be what I want to hear.

6. Home, not work, is where I want to be right now. Can't wait until 4:30.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to margarita's on the patio when I get home, and more spaghetti, tomorrow my plans include a barbque with some friends and Sunday, I want to relax.

30th Class Reunion

Every County Fair is reunion time. This year was my 30th class reunion. I held a bar-b-que for my classmates at my house with all the trimmings. Except for the storm that passed over with rain/wind while my husband was trying to cook the hamburgers, it was a success. We passed around the year books, and senior trip pictures, and had some good laughs. 1979 was the year for big glasses, the Farrah hair style, us girls wore boys levis and boy shirts. Anyway I did, I was a stick horse and had no shape. Needless to say, I think we all look pretty good for our age!
