Everyone.... may I introduce to you my sister her hubby and my two gorgeous nieces.
The rest of the pics are all Holland. The one with the buildings is Rotterdam.... they are redoing the staion and the square in front of it, the place is best to be avoided, well I do not really like the city itself that much but the sunlight and blue clouds made me take the picture of the buildings.

Should I really reply to this one??

hey, awesome photos! Thanks for sharing!

Okay, I'll play... this is me, when I went Geo-Caching with a fellow LOCI Fan.







But you can also see me alive and in color:

Okay, I think you know me inside and out now

Cool! Great pics!

Awesome cloggs!!! Your family is lovely! Nieces are soooo pretty!

Jess going out too Sat. night with hubby to a fundraiser at Nick's bank.

I have to say TJara, that was a great show. I could see the progress your dog was making with each video...how long does it take to train a dog to do that? It looked like he almost took you out at one point! Lol...you must have the cardio of a swimmer...(I could never do that without coughing up a lung, and crumpling to the floor!)

Ktjeinuk...may I call you cloggs, Because I had to scroll down like five times just to spell that! Your pictures are fantastic! I can smell the fresh grass and horses , and I love the reflections on the buildings with the pop of color at the bottom...their great shots..

It took about a year until he knew how to do all of the obstacles correctly. We started classes in late August '06 and our first trial was at the beginning of July '07. Though it's not a fair assessment, as in the beginning I had a LOT to learn, too. An experienced trainer can work better from the start, however, some obstacles like the teeter and the weave poles still take lots of practice. And, I'd say a dog is never finished, there's always things to improve or to work on. It's animals, not a machine, and I'm human, I make mistakes. Lots of them *LOL*

And believe me, running for around 40 seconds at a time does not improve my shape as much as I would want it to. And you don't want to hear me wheeze after a run *LOL*
But it's tons of fun, and that's what's most important.

One pic at reunion! Me in the black polka dot, with my hair very blonde! LOL! So fun! More to come!

You look FANTASTIC!!!! Aren´t you blonde anymore?

With help from my old friend Jane, she owns her own salon!

Another pic at reunion! Luann, I've knowm since elementary school!

One of my best friend's Robin, and her handsome hubby!

Thanks Kayne - sure, please do call me Cloggs....everyone else does, even me!!!



Nice pics!!!!!
All of you still look great... but ehm.... where's the shoes????? I NEED a picture of you in the shoes!!!!!!

Cloggs

Seriously, where are the shoes?! You and your friends all look terrific Krod.
Cloggs, may I ask you how you came to e called Cloggs? Also I loved your pics. Especially the one of your family of course and the clouds reflected in the buildings.

Since this is the picture thread:

"My" beach:

Wish we were all there, sipping VDOTINI"S! I posted those killer hurting ***shoes on off topic yesterday! LOL

You look fabulous, krod! I love the collar on the dress...so pretty! OK...off to OT to look at the shoes!

Oh...so pretty hb! That just makes me happy! I love the beach, and just sitting and watching the ocean. I can't wait to get back to it someday! Thanks for the photo!

Love your beach picture!!! I can also sit there and watch the waves roll in for hours, people watching is great at the beach too!!!

Now, about the name....... one of my best friends nicknamed me cloggy/cloggs. I was given the nickname because I am officially a Dutchie and in Holland they have....... yep, you guessed it cheese and windmills AND cloggs (among other things). Since Windmilly or Cheesy did not really sound right I became Cloggy. It's quite handy as when we are out and about she just has to call me Cloggy and I know immediately that she is talking to me. Mystery solved!!

Cloggs

You wear cloggs! I love them, I wear them to!!

Oh brother!!!!

had touble to 0r 2, anywho, VDOtininis

are you sure you are still sober???????

Positivlvity!

Maybe it's best you let me hold those other 5 VDOtini's Krod...... and you go and sit down at the Noromo Bar!!!!
You've not been trying that Tequilla recipe again have you???? What was it, whisk some eggs check the taste of the tequilla, sift some flower and check the taste of the tequilla again?

NO! That tekillia will kill ya! ! Hey, pull your boat over, no drinking and driving!

I always thought it was "just kidding".


Cloggs, loved the pics. I can smell that grassy field from here!

Thanks for the explanation Cloggs. I was wondering if it had to do with you being from Holland or if you just liked wearing clogs -or maybe clog dancing. Do they have that in Holland?

I wish you could all come sit on the beach and drink VDOtonis with me.

I'm writing Bobby directions, hubby think's I'm feeling out a senior card!

Well, sometimes things are just what they seem! My log in name here is ktjeinuk - for which the ktj is really "little Karin" (which is me!) and "inuk" is sort of self explanatory. I've lived in th UK for the past 6 years though but my family still lives in Holland and I go over to see them a few times a year.
Well, they do do clog dancing in Holland. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_JFE6VRCqE . I never joined in though. I did try wearing some wooden clogs once when I was a kid but they really hurt my feet so I never really wore them after that.

Cloggs

welcome to the globetrotting club, cloggs

Yeah!!! Snap!

Well, now I'm depressed....I dont belong to any groovy club.....even got a crap name...Kayne..blahhh...no story behind it, just Kayne...you know how many jokes I got about that as a kid? Boys can be gross.

You guys are all in the UK and Italy, and all the "cool" places....the other day I heard Sara complain about the weather reaching a whopping 98 or something...

It is 8:19 pm, and 102 degrees out...no joke...Texas is boiling right now...and NO I am not a cowgirl...I'm not from here, I'm just living (wilting) here...ok, going back to party to cheer myself up.

He kinda reminds me of my old english teacher from high school - one of the coolest teachers ever. I seen the rest of the pics, looks like you had a blast, a good foot soak will help with the aches




That's very interesting to know, my screen name here is a take on Mr. MacPhisto, the onstage personality Bono took during the ZOOTV tour. Being the big U2 fan, I used to have a blog with the name Ms. Macphisto's Discotheque (I haven't used it in years, thinking of getting rid of it). When I joined this board, I chose the name I have now, I was going to use Ms. instead of Lady but Lady sounded much cooler, lol Little did I know that the spelling I used is the same used for Mephistopheles from Faust. I guess it turned out ok in the end since that's where Bono got the idea for the name

Always wondered about your name too lady_m. You're too cool.

sorry you are wilting Kayne. How do you pronounce your name? Does it rhyme with Jane? I'm no globetrotter either. lol I've never been out of New England except for a trip to Disney World a million years ago when I was 18. No cool clubs either except the unofficial official Robert Goren fan club. Let me know if you want a card or did I already make you one? I've made a lot of them. I lose track.

(Every time I see your name I think of Kanye West)

Oh Kayne, I loooove your pics! Especially that one. It's 102 degrees in here too

AHHHH!!! No Kanye West NOOOOO!! now I am sad. Its Kayne, like jane...or insane...

Not Kanye West...blechhhh

Oh and yes, you did give me a fan card (thanks again)...I guess I do belong to a club!

Ive always wanted to go to New England...Maine....Wanna run into Stephen King

~~thuds over the above photo and then tries to come to her senses~~

I would love to run into Stephen King as well. I love his work. I have been into his writing since I was 12. Yes, 12...even the more gruesome stuff, which seemed better than real life at times. I think I have double copies of everything he has ever written. One in hardcover and one in softcover. The softcovers I read, the others I collect...including a couple that are first editions. I bet he would be interesting to hang out & chat with. I once saw an interview on a book program on tv (can't remember the name of the channel, but they do book reviews and author interviews and that's about it). It was Stephen, Tabitha and their son, whose name skips my mind at the moment. It was really interesting. They each read from a book/story they had written and then talked with the audience.

boy, I feel so much older than my upcoming 31, lol... in my head, Maine = Jessica Fletcher and whatsitsname village she lives in...

::: shakes head in disbelief :::

Ah, I love Stephen King! Have all his books...some hard copy, but I prefer paperbacks...I reread them till the pages fall out..I also was around 12...13 when I read my first one..Cujo....man that scared the crap outta me! My imagination is, well to say the least, warped...and that was the first thriller/horror book I read and I was hooked.
I also am an avid collector of books, I have three floor to ceiling bookshelves filled to the brim. and still counting...

see... another fellow compulsive book buyer

The youngest grandson speaks! NO DRUNK DRIVING! Pull your arse over!

Thanks! I've never travelled much myself, the farthest I've been is Sudbury, Ontario which is 5 miles north of my home in Toronto. It's a very quiet town and you need a car if you want to get anywhere.

UK and Cool, now that's two words you hardly ever see in the same sentence!!

Please don't feel left out !!! Methinks you can join the book buyers/lovers club! I have been told by some of my friends to go and find a BBA (Book Buyers Ananymous) to sort myself out... wanna join in?? There's no therapy all you have to do is deny you have a problem with collecting books and admit that you love to read and that's it!! Now.... is there something you want to tell us Kayne??? I think you know what I want to hear..... My name is Kayne and.......




Noooooooo, don't move there.... people don't live very long once they move there!!!!!

Cloggs

PS: nice story about your name LadyM!!

*heavy sigh*...my name is Kayne and ...I...am...a...(head hanging in shame) book- o -holic. Whew! that felt good...



Dont judge me, you people have issues too!

Well done Kayne... now all you need to do is keep buying books and keep reading them and telling other people which ones you like.. how hard is that!!!
Issues....... what issues????

By the way, Lady M.. I just realised that in the UK there is a little town called Chipping Sudbury!!!

UK towns have the nicest/wackiest names...

You should come on down to the Smoky Mountains! Weird? No, just some rednecks, not too bad!

I love your name Kayne. I think it's beautiful and different. The only reason I think of that other guy-wont mention his name don't want to make you sad again-is because your first names contain the same letters.

Cabot Cove!!!! (I didn't even have to google it-the name popped into my head) That's where Jessica lives. Kayne's right-GTSara-don't go there. You'll never get out alive.

The first Stephen King book I read was "Christine". I liked it but I have to admit some of his books I have no clue what is going on. lol

We were on vacation about 10 years ago up in the White Mountains of NH at a place called "Six Gun City" (boriiiiiiiing)
Anyway, my husband sees this guy that he's sure is Stephen King. Really did look like him. We kept seeing him all over the park. Finally my husband went up and asked if he was SK. He said no but he was often mistaken for him. Once even by someone who actually knew SK.

Only because this is the post your picture thread here is my buddy Rigs after his bath today. He looks to be deep in thought but being as he's a shih tzu-i doubt it



And me at (where else/) the beach . it was very hazy and humid that day. These two girls are the daughters of a friend of mine. I told them to stand in front of me for the pic. No one wants to see me in a bathing suit believe me.

you kinda look like Eames or Kathryn Erbe in that pic!
