If Mathews scares you away, there's always Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown "the historic triangle" that would be worth the trip. ALthough quite honestly I think you'd prefer Mathews....<BR/><BR/>BHE - One of you - Cool Breeze or you or better BOTH--need to do a story on Bicycle Man. That's good stuff there. We, too, have a bicycle man, but that's for another day.<BR/><BR/>MPM - I daresay I'm not sure if he's still breathing, but I can put it on the potential tour stops for the blogapalooza.<BR/><BR/>Reb/LWK - I'm glad you enjoyed it (thanks to G.Islander who wrote it) and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.<BR/><BR/>GJ - We do indeed have our fair share of characters around here. There's enough fodder here for a movie, for sure. You can't make this stuff up.<BR/><BR/>Cool Breeze - Congratulations on your new blog! You might be the first husband-wife blogging team I know of. Of which I know. Of.<BR/><BR/>Baby Sis - Cool Breeze is Big Hair's husband, they live close by, I'll fill you in when you get here. When will that be??? We were told tonight, but of course for you that translates into, "Whenever CB Baby Sister feels like it, and she won't call to give you an ETA or anything, just says stuff like be sure there's wine in the fridge , etc." (CB Children are eagerly awaiting the Wii bowling challenge....)<BR/><BR/>Annie - Of course I naturally assume when people are cutting grass they're on a riding mower, but I'm here to tell you that a push mower is not without its hazards either...ask me how I know. There's a reason I will not cut grass without sunglasses.<BR/><BR/>Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.Chesapeake Bay Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187804072769932131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-16192862131518983602008-11-26T16:39:00.000-05:002008-11-26T16:39:00.000-05:00sorry I misinformed you..my mower luckily is not o...sorry I misinformed you..my mower luckily is not one that you sit on and drive, but an awful old fashioned little thing I have to push around the yard...so not too much worry with the wheels.

You are so right - if nobody keeps them, they`d be lost! And not only me, but I`m sure many people love such hilarios old stories, so drily told!

Lucky Tommy, eh? <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately you remind me that my mower needs a new set of tires, and no I don't even drive it to the local shops or anywhere else! It has all been plain mowing. In fact I think I might be the only person to mow a yard with a mower with bald tires, and an actual hole in one wheel. However it hasn't fallen off or collapsed yet, so it keeps on going! In fact, it always surprises me that it still starts. As long as it has some fuel in it!<BR/><BR/>Love the photo. I just had a little tiny thought that that piece of wood looked strangely familiar, and just had another little thought that you wouldn't drive a truck with it in the back, and haul it out for another photo? No, ok..sorry...just a silly errant thought. <BR/><BR/>AnnieAnniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10698343129217681652noreply@blogger.com
