    Of course...I LOVED the Andy Griffith show! My parents were older when they had me, and I am also familiar with "No Time For Sergeants", too. :happy2:

      These are the latest trees to flower in the neighbourhood. I love the Poinciana, they make me think that its nearly Christmas.

          Oh, Happs...those trees are gorgeous! From a distance, they remind me of the Pohutukawa trees in N.Z., but up close, the flower is quite different. I wish I were in OZ right now. Snowing here as we speak. :egad:

            STL, I am fifty-three...my dad would be 100 next year...mom is 86. My mom would let me sneak out of bed and watch the "late" shows with her, and so I got to see "No Time For Sergeants", "Some Like It Hot"...so many of the awesome older shows.

            I got teary today...I got to my cousin's house to make lefse, and she was playing a family reunion dvd from 1986. My dad passed away seventeen years ago and it was so amazing to see actual footage of him (one cousin was on the cutting edge of technology and video taped the event). To be able to see him and hear him talking after all this while made me cry.

            I guess this doesn't really relate to outdoors, LOL.

                I know...my mom was a very late beginner at 33 with me! She was 37 when she had her last (third) kiddo. Nowadays, that's not odd at all. I always had the oldest parents of anybody in my class.

                    Yep - just tried it again, Reggie - still the same message with a sad red face. (I'm on a Mac - don't know if that should make a difference)

                      Reg, I can't view the first vid...but I can see the "Split Enz" one.

                            Aw Fen, it's so hot here I just want to throw myself into your pic and cool down! Looks amazing!

                              How hot is it, Happs?

                              You know, it really is pretty. Now that I don't have to knock myself out removing snow from the front foot path and the million foot long, double-wide driveway, I'm much happier!

                              Got to mom's house and shoveled her out. She has a much smaller driveway, so it only took 8 minutes or so.

                                Not sure about today but yesterday we nudged 42 Celsius. Felt like posting, we have your visiting leaders and how would you like them done? Rare, medium or well done?
