'War Stories'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
which made SiL's friend light up like a Christmas tree. He saw it and loved it, so be sure to pass the accolades on to Z.
Yay! I shall. Thanks, sweetie. *mwah*
hmmm. I should tell Z to upload the pictures of us with Courtney, Angela, and Reginald Vel Johnson. Yes.
In the plans for today: communing with nature in Stowe. This involves, I'm told a gondola ride up to the top of the mountain. I hope it involves a gondola ride back down.Scott and a skiied Stowe a lifetime ago. I don't even think we were engaged yet. I'm pretty sure you can get the gondola to take you back down. I loved Stowe with snow. Teppy, are the places you're staying air conditioned? Scott and I have found this to be a problem when we've taken off-season vacations in ski country.
Steph, the person from Waterbury I ran into last week said the Alchemist has totally revitalized Waterbury, and that it's packed every night.
I only wish the brewer/owner guy hadn't been such a tool to us... but the food and beer is just so excellent.
Get a cider doughnut at that cider place on the tourist route through Stowe! YUM!

Heh. Yeah, this was a thing last week.

So far, yes, b/c we're staying at a Comfort Inn, which is a big ol' chain hotel. Though my air conditioner is so loud I suspect it's trying to get free from the wall.
We move to the B&B tomorrow afternoon, and I don't know if it's air-conditioned, but the weather in VT is supposed to drop back into the 70s tomorrow, so we should be fine.
(And now Little House on the Prairie is on. Half of me wants to watch, and half of me wants to run screaming from the room.)
An ex-co-worker of mine (actually, the person whose job I took over when I became a permanent hire) moved up there last year, and she recognized the place instantly when I mentioned it to her.

There's always watch-n-snark (mentally or vocally). That's what we did with Jerry Springer on a couple of vacations.

That's the impression I get. That's so damn cool.

That sucks. If my bro hadn't been so busy, he would have taken good care of you.

Heh. Dad and I were considering tourist-y things to do, and he nixed Ben & Jerry's, and Cabot Creamery, and when I suggested Cold Hollow Cider Mill, he burst out with "I *hate* apple cider!" (This was at dinner last night.) Everyone at the table cracked up.

Oh, yeah, baby.
Heh. Yeah, this was a thing last week.
We went to Loon Mountain in Lincoln, NH. I think it was when I was first pregnant with Ben, maybe even before we told our folks. It was late May or early June, so we didn't even give heat and A.C. as much thought as we might have, had it been July or August. It also ended up being an early heatwave. Between the heat, humidity, and pregnancy-induced nausea, if I wasn't in the pool or the shower, I was not what you'd call a fun date. I was more what you'd call a baby howler monkey.

Right ON! I am so damn proud of my bro.
