We're ba-a-a-accccck

Radio Question of the Day:

Dads do this in regard to their children 3 times more often than mothers do. What is it?

****************************************

We're back from the shore. We had a great time. Everything went well, and the weather was great. There was a kite fest going on, and the Sunfest was held while we were there also. *I took pictures, but can't post them right now. The Sunfest is an Arts and Crafts show, with mega-food and musical entertainment as well. All in all, very good trip. To top it off, we got 53 miles per gallon in our Civic Honda Hybrid on the trip. We have gotten as high as 57 MPG on a trip, but 53 MPG is nice.

*My PC modem is shot and I am awaiting a new one (might be 5 days) so I can't read your blogs. Sigh. Right now I'm at 3D's using her PC. She's not here, so I'm taking this opportunity to mess up her house. heh heh heh. As if.

Answer to the Radio Question of the Day:

Forget to pick up the kids from school. Those dads.

Glad you had such a wonderful time, Lucy!

I read about a Kite Festival on another blog today, and it was on a beach, too! Did you see a HUGE Octopus Kite by any chance? Wouldn't that be something if you were at the same beach at the same time...!

WELCOME BACK! i actually tried to say that earlier, but Blogger was being a brat. guess it knows you're havin' PC problems and figured it would have a little fun at your expense.

sounds like you had a "fest"ive time on your trip! and that was amazing gas mileage you got... (what did you buy with all the money you saved?)

and i completely missed this question... i mean, forget to pick up the kids? yikes.

Libby said...

now,. do you think that might be on purpose to forget to pick that kids up, so the wife gets pissed & says i'll never ask you to do that again, i cant trust you! then, they never have to...
By the way, welcome back, and i confess, the twizzler bits mashed into the carpet by the tv are mine...

I thought the answer to the question of the day was:

Smacking the little brats!

Glad you had a nice time. The weather here is fantastic! Last week it only rained for 6 of the days.......

Pecos Blue said...
