    Yikes, small adjustment my patootie........we'd all be 28 years older!!!!!!!!!!!  Which in itself isn't a bad thing but to age that in less than a day.  Well I certainly missed a lot of the fun these last (fast) 28 years.Wink

    Got my jammies on.  Does one wear jammies on the beach?

    Just wondered how your weekend with your friends went Hope?  I hope you had fun and I guess you must be tired.  Good thing you missed Coonie's b'day party 'cause it tuckered me out for sure.  That girl knows how to celebrate.  I'm getting too old for late night parties.  I think next party we'll have to plan a brunch Cool

    Gentle hugs.

    Good morning Beachettes.  Time for a walk and enjoy the early morning quiet on the beach.  I'm well rested from Coonie's party.  When is the next one? Hehehehe.

    Looks like it's going to be another perfect day at the beach.

    Love the rock sculptures. What a tribute to our very own beach-angel. Awesome.

    Seeing that buffet is enough to send me straight to the fridge. I'll be right back. LOL.

    OMGoodness me, oh, my.

    I know that intersection!! I think I've probably taken that exact same picture myself!!

    It's the beach in Ft. Lauderdale, right near the intersection of Las Olas boulevard.

    Las Olas is THE shopping/art mecca section of town that is my absolute favorite.

    Thanks for taking me back there, Coonie.

    Hope this helps....

    I dont know if this is the right way to post a picture

    But I signed up for the free photobucket and loaded a

    the photos there...it helps if you know how to resize a photo

    to medium, if not you can do it at photobucket

    Once you get an account

    You will see a blue rectangle that says

    choose files...

    click on it and it will go to your computer..there you
    look for your photo

    then you double click on the photo and it should go to photobucket

    let it load then it will say,

    1of1 image has uploaded

    you go down to the blue rectangle that says save and continue

    and click

    the photo will appear below..click on it

    and it will appear by itself with link codes to the right

    left  click on Direct Link.. a black lline will go thru it

    right click on that and you choose copy from the menu

    Go back to BCO

    In the box for post a reply at the top there is a little tree..

    left  click on that ...

    A box will come up with Insert/edit image

    right clink on the Image URL and a line will appear

    right click on that and choose paste

    then go down to the bottom and left click on insert...the photo will

    appear in the forum

    There you go!!

    Oh Thank goodness. Lisa that seems like a very clear explaination. We should all remember that Lisa's instructions are on page #377, so that when we add additional beach combers, we can refer them back.

    It's just fantastic to see posts from our two newest beachie bunnies!!

    Lucky, you'll figure it out. I was totally & completely clueless and our own AlwaysHopeJazzy walked me thru and held my hand -- I'm always grateful for her initial encouragement.  

    It's so much fun when you finally figure it out! I too go thru free photobucket, but apparently there are other ways as well.

    Anna. I learned on the "next person" thread that you are a quilter!! We share that love in common. Do you happen to know the fabric of Amy Butler?? She is a client of my husband's..... I've had the opportunity to attend a holiday party in her home..... the day before the party it was being photographed for a magazine spread!! She is an incredible woman. Kind. Gracious. And dramatically successful. I had no idea before we went. I learned all about her after the party. LOL.

    Please feel free to tell us anything you're willing to share.

    I'm the mom to two grown daughters and have 5 grandchildren, between my husband & I, with a sixth making it's appearance early summer. (Those are our Denver kids and they don't believe in finding out the sex of the baby ahead of time -- so its always a surprise!!)

    We live in OH primarily, but are often elsewhere. LOL. Leaving on Wed for Baltimore and then from there to my DD2's final recital for her Masters program. Next week I'll be in Alabama.

    My work as a happy music lady has me kicking up my heels and traveling to various teacher conferences around the country. Enough about me.

    So glad that you've been able to find us -- in the many active threads around here.  

    Lisa, Checkum, Myself -- and probably others who I can't remember have also gotten addicted to Picasa 3 for making photo collages. That's a free service, too and lots of fun.

    I'll meet ya down here later this afternoon and we'll share quilting ideas and get better acquainted.

    I realized that we'll need more chairs -- to get better acquainted.

    This is a pic that I took last summer on our adventure-of-a-lifetime to Aruba. Still a fav pic:

    My DH put together the whole trip as a surprise for me -- when I had finished rads, as something to look forward to. It was idyllic. Truly paradise.

    Which reminds me..... I wonder how Toy is doing?

    Happy Monday to you too Mary Lou, I always so enjoy your smile and no matter what you go through you handle it with grace.  How are you and DH doing?

    It is always nice to be reminded of our dear Angel's words when she started this wonderful thread.

    Thank you for the reminder my friend.

    Lucy lady, keep playing around with posting pictures and you will get the hang of it.

    Happy day all.
