The most wonderful visitors!

Well, it was finally my turn to see Hank and Vic while on their long trip. They sneaked up a few minutes early and caught me in my bathing suit and well, I never did get dressed. LOL It was too darn hot! They came bearing hugs and plants and a little dog too. :) We had a great time, but I have to complain-Vic didn't take enough plants!!! It had been a year since I had seen them and it ws still just like yesterday. I love those too!!

Vic, you owe me big time for posting this. (Photography by nine year old.)

I'm not sure who this guy is but I think he was stalking Vicki. LOL He did lose a game of 'who controls the sprinkler'. After the initial shock, I think he was cooled off though.

Awwww, hi there, you guys! I can't wait to see you at the Roundup - and if you can't make it, Chele, we'll find a way to visit you on our own.

Chele - you look like you're doing great on the diet still. I *love* that picture of you, sunny face!

And this little cutie, well she had enough of animal abuse at it's finest. First she got dragged through about five states. All along she had to sniff every relative they had. Then she had to come here and get tortured by five kids. I'd have passed out too! Cute little Woodstock...

Peace?

Looks like you had a really good time :)
Look at you two smiling..........lol.........more people need to smile like that ;)

Woodstock looks a lot like Sarah right there!

Hiya Vic and Badseed, good to see you two again!(is Tennessee on your way home, lol). BTW Vic, I haven't killed your plant, in fact, it's got more leaves on it!

What Fun!!!

Looks like you had great visit all smiles and looking so pretty. You look pretty too Hank.

Hey....Grandbabies make Vic look even younger!!!And Hank....when is Arizona on your list to visit?? Chele...you look great...as usual. Jo

Thank you so much Michele, Craig, and 5 little seeds!!!!! I owe you big time!!!!! And here we are at Peggy's!!!! And yep, more plants...LOTS more plants. And a GREAT supper. I don't think we'll eat for a week!

Awww, great pictures! So nice to see y'all again, and against very pretty garden backdrops!!!!

Well shut my pie-hole! Ya'll have just been world travelers!!! And now a fine meal at the "Mystic's Magical House of Momentous Meals"!!! I'm so jealous! Combine that with a trip to Badseed's!...no way! (And you caught her skinny dippin' in a pool!? Of all the luck!)

Looks to me like the smiles of Hank and Vic, Or Vic and Hank, Or Woodstock Hank and Vick...or, or...well, you can see I'm trying to be politically correct with the names (first time in my life...I'm new to this!). Anyway!...what a great momentous trip Vic/Hank! Chock it up for a great chapter in Life! Ya'll are the best! (See you in KY in Sept?)

Hope there wasn't any fish hooks in the swim suits. That Hank is so good at that. LOL
What great smiles all around. Makes me want to see all of you again.

awwwwwwwwwwwwww! 'Chele, you & Vic look great!

..and that big Peggy hug...awwwwwwwwww...

Well this is really me we have had a wonderful time.They have turned in for the night. I think Chele's girls wore them out. It seems like just yesterday that I had seen them before. Chele I really had to twist her arm to get her to take any plants but I think she found a few. lol Now if I can just get Hank to leave my lights behind. lol I better check his pockets in the morning. He is amazed at the water garden all lite up in the dark. lol

Turned in for the nite...
Everybody...shhhh, be quiet. Type lightly....(shhh, their sleeping)...

Hank and Vic (or Vic and Hank) (and Woodstock) had a big day. Shhhh....quit tapping your foot somebody! (Er, was that me?) Be quiet...shh...they're resting. Let's all sing 'em a sleepy-time song, gently...gently...shhhh...

♫Sweet sweet dreams...now rest yourrr heads..
♫ Full moon beams watch o'er your beds...♫...

(next?) :>)

I am glad that you all are having such a great time!!!

be safe inyour travels Vic and Hank :)

Good morning Peggy, vic and Hank. Are you eating breakfast right now???? Hmmm!! Bacon, eggs, grits and cornbread to be sure!!!! What a wonderful time you are all having. Chele - I think vic passed on the suggestion to stop by Virginia!! :-( But, September is not too far away....... Safe journey back home my friends.

Looks like a good time!!! Be safe!

The travelers just left here a few minutes ago headed home. We had a good time and I sure hated to see them leave. The next time they have to stay longer. Vic let me know when you get home. I loved having you and Hank and woodstock. I miss you already.

What great pictures of all of you... Vic, 'Chele, Hank... and the famous hug photo! Looks like you guys are having a great trip and good times. Can't wait until September to see y'all again, and meet Louisa (aka Margaret).

Marvelous, just marvelous!!


"eyes"

lol Darius - same here!!! Are you a hugger???? We love hugs!! :-)

yeah... I come from a long line of huggers... to the point it embarrassed me as a child, LOL.

I never had many hugs as a child, being the eldest of seven but I think my children would also say that they were a little embarrassed at being 'squashed' all the time - especially in front of friends!! lol!!

Well.....A BIG (((((((hug))))) to all of you!! What a wonderful trip Vic and Hank have had...and to have our famous SHOEMAN sing them to sleep......jo

Those pics say it all. That is exactly what DG is all about and I am convinced that is why the population grows in leaps and bounds. There isn't another site on the web that creates such long lasting and meaningful relationships between those who were once complete strangers. Thanks for sharing and thanks to Dave!

Hey Ruth we will save hugs for you trust me. lol Hey Darius does that mean your coming to the Ky RU? I sure hope so would be great to see ya again.

Darius...I agree!! Jo

I'll be there waiting for the hugs Peggy.

I need a hug from all of you but I won't be there :(

Cyber hugs to all of you! Lani
