Hey, you! Happy Birthday. Wishing you many more.

That hawk? What a thrill! I would suggest you might think about his timing, though. A totem or spirit animal might deliver a real pointed message!

All in the mutant spirit ... have a great day!

Youse guys just have way too much fun.
Mrs Great Glorious Grand Poobah picked SUGLY Grand Poobah knowing that he would know when he has a beautiful thing - an no other poobah's would want him.

It's amazing how quickly time can fly on the rainbow. As hard as it is to watch em roll, we know we will meet again. It's just that way with family, RVM or otherwise.

Safe travels to all who journey the rainbow; especially you Rockport RVMs.

Ditto, ditto, ditto. Such a great time with great people. Let's do this more often.

Can you believe this. That is one skinny piece of bacon. I was holding it up knowing he was taking my picture to show how stingy he was. And me, trying to keep my shape.

So, we walked away knowing there was no more bacon coming our way. On the way back we sauntered into their site again, but Steve had scoffed it all up. Sheesh!

A very good omen. May the year ahead, any many more be blessed with safety and good hunting.

After that we either find something nice for another week or so otherwise we head on down the the RGV.

This has been an awesome week with friends. It is what makes life on the rainbow soooo darn cool!
Looking forward to a few more days with you and Sandee, just touring the SA area. Don't forget one day Thai, one day Korean.

I am still wondering why he lost his way back to the RV Park last night?

For some unknown reason, that needs explaining, Wayne decided to follow Diane & me towards the US Post Office. After a few blocks, Wayne slammed on his brakes, made a 'U' turn. He knows we don't use a GPS, as compared to his 2-3 GPSs.

So yes Wayne, do explain

1) I hope everyone on the Rainbow is having a great day and that all mutants continue to mutate.

2) Happy Birthday Dwayne. If I remember the Earth Children series right the personal totem is something that is with you on special occasions and what could be more special than your big day. Red tails are very pretty birds.

3) If Steve does organize a bartending competition I will hereby and henceforth volunteer to be the consumer of said competition's products. I will follow all the rules of fine swilling until I can no longer stay upright and start falling from my stool. Wayne can come in and cleanup what I don't. There is a good reason for being round.

Happy Birthday Dwayne. Did your visitor look like this one I had outside my barn window yesterday?
