Sounds like a lot of the Silver Sisters need a big roaring fire, a huge pan of brownies (with fudge frosting of course) and maybe a scoop of ice cream ---so much for the diet posts. Add some wine, martini's or your favorite adult beverage - top all that off with a giant group hug. Bless all of you lovely ladies I have yet to meet, but find inspiration from each and every one of you. Susan
GT & Judy, I want to say HI to you boaters. I lived alone on a 40' power boat with my cat for 12 years on the San Francisco Bay. Then I lived on a 36' ketch rigged sail with a SO..
LRV - Welcome to the board. Wow you must be some super woman!! and so cool that you steal life as it should be done...I mean never giving in...
I hope I will be on the road till they put me in my grave. I would never be able to see all the places in north america. Even seeing one place in the fall to seeing it in the spring, or winter, or summer - gives a different perspective.
I think we all should just travel...

Step away from the fire and come back to all kinds of crazy news!!
Sharon, I am so sorry to hear that you got bad news about the lot and all of your legal battles. I am continuing to put you into my prayers.
Carol, Wow!!! Another trailer?? I thought you loved your FB! What year is the new one? It looks really nice inside. Tell us all about it! Are you trading the FB? Is Brad keeping his?
Larry and I are going to go to the state park just down the road on Fri. night. We will be dry camping as we have the pink stuff in all of the drains etc. We are planning on a potluck and big campfire! Wish you were all close enough by to stop in and visit!

Lou, you and Larry get ready, Sharon and I and all the fur babies may be coming to a driveway campsite near you any day! How long is that courtesy parking good for?
Sharon selling parts? I guess that accent of graceful curves likely could bring you the windfall you and Peter could wrap your hands upon. Now I wonder if you will be winning the November photo contest? I can see by the comments, you may already have a decorative accent to merchandise. Any autograph sessions scheduled? Seriously you have the creativity to make music and photographic art, among other talents that will not fail you Sharon. Peter too is a wealth of skill and productivity!
My new to me Airstream is a 2005, like my 25', same colors and style only bigger at 28', so I know I will like it. I am going "vintage!!" Yes the FB is going, but Brad is holding onto his mancave ferociously. Daily rock jams have the neighbors feet tapping.

Jo

Hmm Yesterday was all tears and OMG what are we possibly going to do.
Today after being on the phone all day. We are going radical.
We still have to sell our home. But we see a bit of an opportunity to turn a terribly bleak situation into quite possibly a great "save". We have taken the lot off the market and - heck if the neighbours and the Ontario Government say a "triangle home" is prudent planning - then that saying be careful what you wish for - will be the phrase of 2010! around this household.
We have a triangle building envelop. There is no law as to any design control in a rural property. Not that we want to live beside these people - we have no choice in order to salvage our livelihood.
Time for our sails to take on a different tact. We have an idea on getting National and International Web exposure, help youth, involve key Charities and create a Memorial University Scholarship in my Mothers name - as this was to be her dream home...stay tuned as things will develop. Don't want to give all the secrets away - Big Brother maybe watching....
You know Carol - I just wanted to jump start anything. Be the radical kid on the block for once...I think they are too scared to comment or I have shocked the "community" LOL....I thought the curves idea from a few months back could do with honorable mention in Dave's "open" category this month - and since I was chicken the last time to post it - I thought with all that is going on in my life I needed a laugh - why the heck not - what is the worst they could do - delete my entry Wally would most certainly smile at how inspirational his curve truly is.

Semp: I'll be by your campfire in a min. Friends, drinks and chocolate...what more do you need.
GT: not a super women; just dumb...if I had only known about boats I would not have done it but it was a spectacular lifestyle. I slowly learned about pumps, 3 electrical systems, moving a boat in winds, tides & currents with twin engines and the joys of sailing the S.F. bay, Sac Delta, Hawaii, Mexico & Fla. While I think I can learn how to drive a 30' MH, I do have second thoughts now about being able to pay for the needed maintenance on such a large unit....Is anyone going to the event at the AS factory in June?
Carol, you know you and Sharon and the fur babies are all welcome to our driveway courtesy parking any time you want to come. And we have never had to put a time limit on the number of days! We figure if you can stand us that long you can stay! LOL
Sharon!!! Sic em, girl!!!
We read all about the Aluminapolouza at JC. Haven't decided if we can afford it yet. It sure sounds like fun. And it is close enough to us this time! We will have to see. June is still far off for us.
Larry and I are planning to dry camp at Findley on Fri. night this week. We still haven't gotten used to the idea that we can do that longer range planning yet! Those 9 yrs. holed up here sure got us entrenched in the "at home" mode. We have to learn to get over it, I guess.

Sharon, let's hope something positive happens soon! I've been thinking some ugly thoughts about your ugly neighbors. ( who ME?) I have invisioned your lot becoming the largest composting site he'd ever seen......or smelled. How's about starting out with a few big dump truck loads of really fresh manure??? Or maybe just dumping in his driveway would work (WE CAN DOO IT either way!)
As they say, "Don't get mad, get even"!
Hugs from your evil friend, suz
