What's everyone's plans for Memorial Day??? If I cannot get my husband to go to Big Hill Pond State Park this Saturday, I will try for Monday if he is not having to work. There is an almost mile long boardwalk and a 70 foot tall observation tower, I want to take a picnic lunch along and walk the boardwalk throughout the park which runs hopefully along the lake and the pond. There supposedly is an abundance of wildlife there. And it is supposed to be 88 degrees here Saturday but a chance of some rain Monday I think. And it is no more than probably an hour or an hour and a half drive.

Parades, parades and more parades. Marching band stuff - - but it is always fun!
Darlene is my middle name, not my nickname
i will be working.
audie, I am curious. Do you prefer 3rd shift, or would you like to work days? I know when I had to work 3rd shift, it just about killed me. :shock:

Sounds like my kind of party if there is Italian food involved, as I am sure there will be.

kdw - i would never work another shift. i am made for 3rd, perhaps the perfect employee for 3rd. i can sleep anytime, i have no trouble staying awake at work, and i have no life, therefore no obligations to interfere with my sleeping... it might be a different story if i had kids, but that's a moot point, huh ?

ribs on the egg ? there's nothing better. mr audie made a new glaze for our ribs, it was a honey/beer glaze - pretty tasty !

Saturday-working in the yard. mr. dd has this whole new bed in the front and it consumes most of his time and some of mine. It's turned into a mammoth project...
Sunday--BBQ at friends house. Taking Maggie to swim in their pool. They probably won't speak to us after that. All that black hair and all....
Monday--Nothing. Maybe SoWal.
At least that's the plan so far. Plans never last long around here.
