Andrea and Gabby in Bayside.

Gabby could use some work on her photographing skills.

But she did ok on this one. Bayside, TX

Creepy Wood's Mansion in Bayside. Andrea's family used to live down the street. Apparently the husband went away to war leaving his wife and 12 children. The wife went crazy.

Gabby was so darn excited about the barnacles. I was surprised she knew what a barnacle was.

It was very windy.

More...of Bayside.

And the last of Bayside.

Creepy Fulton Mansion in Fulton, TX. I really would love to have done the tour, but it was too late.

Part of what made Fulton Mansion so creepy...all the stuff around the basement...

We set out to eat a lot of seafood...and we did.

Liz, I absolutely LOVED those pix! Gabby isn't too bad as a photographer! Tanner is 11 (soon to be 12 this month) and she's becoming a very good photographer! She uses her camera phone a LOT but also the digital cam, too. For Mother's Day we're planning a trip to a nature park, and I can't wait to see what she comes up with then!

Keep the pix comin'! Those make me want to visit that place! I have an aunt who lives in Houston, and she's always telling us to come down. We may just have to! It's been many years since I've been to Texas. I've been to Austin and Corpus Christi.

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...
Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
Has anyone ever told you you look like . . . ? If I have to hear someone tell me one more time that I look like Ann Margaret...I will SCREAM...or worse yet, Fergie!!! The only thing I have in common with these two women is the color of my hair!!! What was the other one I've heard?...Julianne Moore (or however it's spelled). I realize there aren't that many redheads in the world...and I realize that some people have this overwhelming need to compare the way people look to someone famous...but PLEASE!!!???...don't just go by the color of someone's hair
