I'm trying to decide if I want to go drive carriages on Mackinac for the summer.
That sounds terrific! The only downside is that I won't be able to come up and hire you to drive me around the island.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm a little concerned because the guy in the picture at the top of the page is not being very safe. But I still really want to go.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
OMG I've always* wanted to go to Mackinac Island! Go for ME!
*for values of "always" that equal "ever since I saw it on Dirty Jobs".

I missed that one. Was he mucking out stalls?

When I was around 13 I went to Mackinac Island with my parents for a Delta Kappa Gamma convention (teachers' honorary society--Mom was president of the state chapter for a while). We stayed at the Grand Hotel. It was lovely.

I never saw that one, but I've been to Mackinaw Island many, many times. Love the place beyond belief. I've got a cousin-in-law that was born on the island.

Laga, he wasn't mucking stalls, he was dealing with the food waste from the hotel. Can't remember exactly what, but there were seagulls. Mostly I was all "horses!" and "no cars!"

I was about 8 years old when we had a family vacay in Michigan and Wisconsin, including taking the ferry over to Mackinaw Island for the day (horses! fudge! bikes! ferry!), touring the locks at Sault Sainte Marie, and spending a few days at Jellystone Park on the way home. Very fun!

hee. Fug girls just asked if they could have HBC-from-the-oscars as their crazy rich aunt. I kind of concur.
