Yep, I'm
buuuuuuuusted, Russel... Paula's right. They wouldn't look
nearly so good on me! Jealousy

... or maybe just the lack of nerve to wear them

... one or the other. Oh, I'm sure it's just jealousy

. [They
are seriously cute, though, Russel. Now, I do recall you were hunting a place to stay on Hydra... camping, if necessary. So, have pj's, will travel? Did anyone see you coming back
down from the monastery

?]
Suzanne was
supposed to be part of a non-profit program that spayed and neutered them, too; however...

.
You'rrrrrre gutted, Paula

... I can hardly see straight!
Marco and Andrea looked as comfy-cozy on that little porch this time as they did last, when we were all there together.

looooooove that tribute poem. Wish you could've turned on some kind of recording device when Paula read it

.
Oh, the B&W works SO well for Dousko's! And the one with its reverie

.
Haha, Sinikka... a big Duh from here!! Can't believe I didn't put that together! Very cool

.
Haha. So that really
is a dog, then

. Roloi ~ such a great name for him. I can imagine the melting laughter when he began to bark. Maybe he wanted someone to open the door off the island, so he wouldn't be buried in the Avalanche

.
Happy Hydra Birthday, Sue!!! Byeeeee, Mary-Ann [and remember, enough is enough on the sparkly

], Sue with the guitar

, and Dolores

!!!
Such obviously wonderful times happened there this year

. And, Eija, you snapped those exquisite sunset photos at just exactly the right moment. [You'd think you had some experience there

.]
Well, Tony [too much
ahem with Carole at Bill's?], there sits your posting not letting mine through.

.. so, tell us, what does "Go mbeirimid beo ar an am seo aris" mean!?! "Go merrily by a bar and meet the barmaid and you'll forever be in the air"?
