Does This Qualify As A Visitor ?

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Amphibious, yes of course. But think I could think of that last night? Not on your life. We always go to AR. There used to not be a bridge across a lake, you took a ferry. Once, while waiting for the ferry, this red convertible car just drives down the side, beside where all the cars were lined up for the ferry, and goes into the water and away they went. That was probably 30 yrs ago....

Oh no mister! Don't you get me involved in your theft of some poor ladies purse! Bad idea, bad idea......

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

LOL!!! Look what you did Terry. You turned into a thief! LOL

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

I didn't turn into a thief!! Kell did!! He said he get me a purse, how'd I know he was gonna steal it from some poor unsuspecting lady???

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

LOL. I meant to say you were turning him into one. Sorry, I am typing to fast today. Brain and fingers aren't working together.

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Well. Thanks to Kell, I have a new purse on the way! Kell made me do it, Kell made me do it........I just keep repeating that to myself and then when my husband asks I say.......Kell made me do it!!

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

LOL, we love to blame Kell for everything on here.

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

When my husband asks me who's Kell, can you point me in the direction of him in a dress? That oughta do the trick! LOL

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

LOL. Still waiting on that pic too. He never did post it.

Hey Kell, when you gonna post that pic of you in a dress? We have plans for it and need it ASAP.

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Yes Kell, where are you?? Come out come out where ever you are!!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Been working in the bath room .
Only 11 more days till my DD 21 st.
80 guests , and only one crapper so it`s got to look good .
Working on the dress pic for you .
I may start a new thread with it .
Might call it " Show Us Your Other Side " ?

KC Metro area, MO(Zone 6a)

That will be easy for me. I am a tomboy and dress like one. I know Terry does too. We'll just put on a suit with a tie.

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

You know huh?? Me, dress like a tomboy? Define tomboy......

Geez, where's Stella when ya need him???

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Beats Me .

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Doesn't that hurt?

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Nah ! I`m tough .
What hurts is Falling off cliff faces .
Don`t do it . If you can avoid it .

North Little Rock, AR(Zone 7b)

Oh, is that what you have been doing, Kell. I was wondering why you have not been to MSG lately. I have a great question under the "useless facts" thread. Why does the guy want to hang on to the plows? Sentimental reasons? Or just stubborn?

Terry, I never carry camara either. Do you happen to remember where the ferry was or the lake?

Kim

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Of course I remember Kim! The ferry was on Norfork Lake, outside of Mt. Home on Rt. 62 going east towards Henderson.........or you could take the V off 62 and go on the ferry off 101 going north......there used to be a ferry on Bull Shoals Lake, somewhere up by Theodosia MO.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Just stubborn ,
I offered him $1000 for an old shed 20 years ago .
It is now a pile of rubble worth nothing .
His cows just live & die . He don`t sell them .

North Little Rock, AR(Zone 7b)

Yep, I know the ferry. I think I was on it only one time and I live here. lol

Oh no, Kell, how awful. The stinker!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

He also had a post & rail fence I wanted to buy when he was replacing his fence .
Same thing . No way . It`s now White ant Dreppings .

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Oh my gosh! I was on that ferry too many times to count! I miss it. Now it's just this big concrete thing that you drive across. It is so not the same ;(

North Little Rock, AR(Zone 7b)

I cannot remember how long the ferry was there but my mom rode on it when she was a young girl. I have pictures. But, not any pictures when I rode on it. Too bad, would have been fun to have them side by side in a frame.

That is really ashame, Kell

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

I can tell you when I rode it. From the years of 74 up to when it was just a memory....sometime in the mid 80's? When I saw the car, it was 76. We used to go ride the ferry just for fun. We weren't going anywhere, although there was a nice park on the other side of 62, the Henderson side.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

WOW , 30 years ago .
Doesn’t time fly when we are having fun in the Garden ?
I can remember not even being 30 yo .
Now I can remember more than 30 years + back !!!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Kim , I did not know that about the hickups .
That sure was a strange fact .

North Little Rock, AR(Zone 7b)

Ha ha...most people just call them hiccups and never think that may not be the real term. Even knowing that there is a term, medical people still say hiccups. lol

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

What type of snake is this .

From up high like that, that road looks tame compared to the one I take to work everyday. We had 4 people die last year on my hwy. I would say road but it connects to my road. lol

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

pepper, huh? I would say road but it connects to my road. Again, huh?

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

From where we were standing , we couldn’t even see the cars .
It`s trips like this that put you in touch With a higher Being .
