He went out yesterday and looked at it, but of course he didn&#39;t have the keys so will give those to him today.   I am going to make a version of chcken scampi for dinner tonight so have to go get the ingredients.  When we go to Olive Garden, I always order scampi but modify it to remove the fat.  I ask them to cook the chicken and veggies in a small amount of olive oil instead of butter and then use a marinara sauce instead of the garlic cream sauce.

There are probably at least 250 little shops on Harry Hines, starting right at the LBJ Freeway (635).  They are all owned by Asian Americans.  You can get earrings for &#036;1, purses for &#036;5, luggage and just about anything else you want for an unbelievable price.  Last time, I literally filled up the back of my Durango and only spent &#036;300.  My big find that time was a bicycle for my grandson (training wheels included) that looked like a police motorcycle, complete with windshield and siren, for &#036;10.  This is all new merchandise.  Once a year, my MIL, myself and 2 SIL&#39;s make the run.  My DIL is very excited as this is her &quot;maiden voyage&quot;.  We moved here to CO from Dallas and our dearest friends have reccently moved from there to up around Crawford, but she is coming down to the Big D to make the shopping run with us.  My SIL heads up the Missionettes program at her church so she buys all kind of prizes and things for the girls at a very, very low price.

We usually take the bus down as parking is limited unless you get there in the afternoon. It is a pleasure as  the bus is pretty reasonable and leaves from all over Cincinnati for the fireworks and picks you up after. Have a great time. Cincinnati is a great place.

The bulk of these pictures came from a mid-60&#39;s postcard book and show various aspects of the park.  The reason some of the photos have a crease in them is because were folded up for many years.  Enjoy this stroll back through the past of this great park.  People first started enjoying picnics at Coney Island in the 1870 and with time Parker&#39;s Grove (as it was called) grew into Ohio Grove and finally Coney Island.  It prospered for many years but closed after the 1971 season and many of the rides were moved to King&#39;s Island; sadly none of the coasters were saved.  The park was not allowed to rebuild immediately after PKI opened, but with time Coney added flat rides and, for the 1999 season, a roller coaster.','cruiseduo','cruiseduo','2006-08-31 22:51:36',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(125048,2066,1,18,112868,'2006-08-31 22:59:17',NULL,'','Howard Thanks Great memories... when was a kid .. a bit closer was another regional amusement park...

The dealers in second-hand goods who lived and worked in these old neighborhoods were forced to flee. The merchants&#39; new gathering place was referred to as the &quot;flee market,&quot; which later became &quot;flea market.&quot; <br />\n<br />\nThe final theory associates the term with New York City&#39;s 18th century Fly Market.

He was very nice and thought it was great that we would come all the way from Wisconsin to see the fireworks. He is a &quot;Packer Fan&quot;. He even put a cone in the parking space so no one would take it. We pulled up an hour before the show and walked right to our blankets and chairs.

Well, my relaxing day was not to be.  This morning, Greg had to go to Home Depot.  I knew I was going to redo the dining room sometime but had no timeframe in mind.  I decided to go look at paint samples while he was looking at whatever he was looking at.  I picked out probably 10 cards with colors on them.  Then we went to Harbor Freight because Home Depot didn&#39;t have the tool he wanted.  I told him I was going to sit in the car and ponder my color choices.  By the time he got out, I had picked the 2 colors I was going to use in the room.  It is going to be a lighter color on top with a chair rail and a darker color down low.  Then we will be installing crown molding and picture frame molding.  Anyway, went back to Home Depot and got the paint and I have spent the afternoon stripping wallpaper and applying primer.  The room hasn&#39;t been redone since we had the house built 8 yrs. ago and I was in my froofy victorian phase then so the walls are a dark wine, and then I put a floral wallpaper over that shortly after painting it.  I have never had so much trouble getting wallpaper off.  There is a large archway leading into the dining room, and I only got it stripped from there to one corner, which is about 6 ft. and it took me 3 hours.  I am going to paint the first coat as soon as the primer dries. I want to get it at on at least one wall so I can see if I really like it or not - sometimes the colors look so different on those little cards. I am pooped, but am covered in primer so may as well tackle it before I clean up.  My hair is full of paint, so hope it comes out.  I know it will turn white someday, but primer is just not a good look.  Well, was just checking in so better go see if it is dry enough to forge ahead...','Gregswife','Gregswife','2006-09-10 03:42:17',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(126819,2066,1,18,125146,'2006-09-10 03:45:34',NULL,'','sounds great cheryl arent you glad you only have to do this every few years&#33;&#33;<br />\n<br />\nI am pooped just reading your adventure :grin:','JoeyandDavid','JoeyandDavid','2006-09-10 03:45:34',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(126849,2626,1,18,125146,'2006-09-10 04:39:15',NULL,'','<br />\n &lt;strong&gt;Hey Cheryl&#33;<br />\nThe way hair colors are nowdays you probably would have fit in nicely with the primer :grin:  someone would probably ask you where you bought yours&#33;LOL&#33; :grin: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;]','SCIROCCO','SCIROCCO','2006-09-10 04:39:15',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(126858,2,1,18,125146,'2006-09-10 05:21:00',NULL,'','This thread is just soooo busy that it&#39;s hard to keep up and that&#39;s a great thing. :smiley:  I love reading what you&#39;re all up to, even if I don&#39;t always post here.

I must say I think RC handled everything well with the problems and kept us up to date with reports.  The people who really suffered were the ones who had flights to reschedule.

We have been wanting to meet her for months, but he is so &quot;private&quot; and said they have only been together 4 months so he thought it was too soon.  Anyway, his dad told him while he really would like to help out, he was wondering if this girl is imaginary as he hasn&#39;t met her and he thinks he would have to confirm she was real before he spent time trying to determine and fix the problem.  So since she needs her laptop fixed, he is actually going to produce her.  We have seen pics - very pretty girl.  He was engaged 2 yrs. ago and his fiance cheated o him, and I really did not think he would ever trust a woman again.  Christine and he were friends back then and she saw how devastated he was and she really helped him through all the stuff with Allison.  I think she liked him all along, but waited until he was ready to move on.

In high school, they only have 4 subjects at a time, each one is one and a half hours long and it counts for a full year. Then in January, they get four completely different subjects for the rest of the year. It&#39;s called block schedules. So far, she&#39;s doing better this year. Of course, she&#39;s got an A in band, which she absolutely loves. She&#39;s doing pretty well in the others but every year she does well at the beginning, then it goes downhill. So, at this point , we&#39;re encouraging, complimenting, and keeping our fingers crossed since 9th grade starts counting toward her GPA. She is much happier this year , lots to be excited about. ON Friday, she was in school at 7AM , then had to stay for band practice, eat dinner there , prepare for football game and finally got home at 11:30 at night. Quite a long day - game was pushed back from 7 to 8:30 due to a storm. She was there at school for 16 hours straight, loving every minute. Thank God she finally found her niche. Just hope she sticks with it. Jason and Wayne are doing great, both of them working very hard, as usual. I&#39;d better stop here , or you&#39;ll be sorry you asked.  :rolleyes:','GottaCruz','GottaCruz','2006-09-17 20:31:42',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(128912,2066,1,18,125146,'2006-09-17 20:36:52',NULL,'','<br />\nYeah i am familiar with Block scheduling... who knows this Band thing may be the outlet she was searching for to express herself... could be... could be...<br />\n<br />\nkeeping positive thoughts <br />\n<br />\nJoey','JoeyandDavid','JoeyandDavid','2006-09-17 20:36:52',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(128913,2,1,18,125146,'2006-09-17 20:39:33',NULL,'','Cheryl, one of our members who hasn&#39;t posted in a long time, iriscruiser, actually helped me with a sewing project here in a sewing thread.

Mary Lou, I had an elderly lady approach me in the toy dept. the other day when I was shopping at Walmart and ask if I knew what Elmo TMX was and I told her I was sorry I didn&#39;t but offered to find her a store clerk.  Then that evening, they did a story about him on the news.  There was a guy at our local Target who snagged the last 2 and a man came up and told him he would shoot him if he didn&#39;t hand over one of them.  They never did report what the end result was.

Where did you eat?&quot;<br />\n<br />\n&quot;It was a place called &#39;at home,&#39;&quot; I explained. &quot;Grandma cooked every <br />\nday and when Grandpa got home from work, we sat down together at the <br />\ndining room table, and if I didn&#39;t like what she put on my plate I was <br />\nallowed to sit there until I did like it.&quot;<br />\n<br />\nBy this time, the kid was laughing so hard I was afraid he was going <br />\nto suffer serious internal damage, so I didn&#39;t tell him the part about <br />\nhow I had to have permission to leave the table. But here are some <br />\nother things I would have told him about my childhood if I figured his <br />\nsystem could have handled it:<br />\n<br />\nSome parents NEVER owned their own house, wore Levis, set foot on a <br />\ngolf course, traveled out of the country or had a credit card. In their <br />\nlater years they had something called a revolving charge card. The card <br />\nwas good only at Sears Roebuck. Or maybe it was Sears AND Roebuck. <br />\nEither way, there is no Roebuck anymore. Maybe he died.<br />\n<br />\nMy parents never drove me to soccer practice. This was mostly because <br />\nwe never had heard of soccer. I had a bicycle that weighed probably 50 <br />\npounds, and only had one speed, (slow). We didn&#39;t have a television in <br />\nour house until I was 11, but my grandparents had one before that. It <br />\nwas, of course, black and white, but they bought a piece of colored <br />\nplastic to cover the screen. The top third was blue, like the sky, and <br />\nthe bottom third was green, like grass. The middle third was red. It <br />\nwas perfect for programs that had scenes of fire trucks riding across <br />\nsomeone&#39;s lawn on a sunny day. Some people had a lens taped to the <br />\nfront of the TV to make the picture look larger.<br />\n<br />\nI was 13 before I tasted my first pizza, it was called &quot;pizza pie.&quot; <br />\nWhen I bit into it, I burned the roof of my mouth and the cheese slid <br />\noff, swung down, plastered itself against my chin and burned that, too. <br />\nIt&#39;s still the best pizza I ever had.<br />\n<br />\nWe didn&#39;t have a car until I was 15. Before that, the only car in our <br />\nfamily was my grandfather&#39;s Ford. He called it a &quot;machine.&quot;<br />\n<br />\nI never had a telephone in my room. The only phone in the house was in <br />\nthe living room and it was on a party line. Before you could dial, you <br />\nhad to listen and make sure some people you didn&#39;t know weren&#39;t already <br />\nusing the line.<br />\n<br />\nPizzas were not delivered to our home. But milk was.<br />\n<br />\nAll newspapers were delivered by boys and all boys delivered <br />\nnewspapers. I delivered a newspaper, six days a week. It cost 7 cents a <br />\npaper, of which I got to keep 2 cents. I had to get up at 4 AM every <br />\nmorning. On Saturday, I had to collect the 42 cents from my customers. <br />\nMy favorite customers were the ones who gave me 50 cents and told me to <br />\nkeep the change. My least favorite customers were the ones who seemed <br />\nto never be home on collection day.<br />\n<br />\nMovie stars kissed with their mouths shut. At least, they did in the <br />\nmovies. Touching someone else&#39;s tongue with yours was called French <br />\nkissing and they didn&#39;t do that in movies. I don&#39;t know what they did <br />\nin French movies. French movies were dirty and we weren&#39;t allowed to <br />\nsee them.<br />\n<br />\nIf you grew up in a generation before there was fast food, you may <br />\nwant to share some of these memories with your children or <br />\ngrandchildren.

I asked the eye dr. about lasik surgery but he said it won&#39;t help me because I am far sighted and it helps people who are near sighted - I think I will check with a lasik surgeon though because I have never heard that.  My new glasses are going to be the progressive lens bi-focals.  I hardly ever wear my glasses - I put my contacts in as soon as I am awake enough to do so and take them out shortly before bedtime.  Greg has that kind of glasses and he hates them - has never been able to adjust to them so I hope I have an easier time.

Another week is ending and we have a rainy day ahead of us today.  <br />\n<br />\n     Our plans for a weekend drive to the mountains to see the leaves will be put on hold til we hear from our son in Ct.  Our 4 year old grandson fell off something (not quite sure what at this point) at the playground and broke his leg.  The poor little guy is in a cast from his foot to his thigh and needless to say is quite miserable.  We want to go see him this weekend of course but son thinks we should wait til things quiet down and feel they may need some help (or should I say some relief) in a week or so since he will be in a cast for at least 6 weeks.  Last night the little guy was in a lot of pain and the pain pills seemed to be getting him hyper instead of making him sleepy.  He wasn&#39;t even excited about the ride in the ambulance which son said he was really impressed with when our son met them at the hospital.  He thought that was &quot;really really cool&quot; but last night nothing was making him happy.<br />\n<br />\n     Whatever you do, make  it a good day and try and stay happy.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2006-10-06 12:28:54',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(134660,2066,1,18,133136,'2006-10-06 14:27:58',NULL,'','Good Morning MaryLou... <br />\n<br />\nSorry to hear about your grandsons boo boo Hope he feels better soon..<br />\n<br />\n<br />\nGood morning Crazies..

Mary Lou, I am so sorry about your grandson.  Having a 4 yr. old grandson myself, I cannot even imagine how in the world he would handle being lept down like that.  The little guy must be so miserable.  I will keep him in my prayers.  Okay, not going to get into the political discussion - my mom told me never to do that and as I am probably in the minority here so my opinions would probably not be well received, will heed her advice.  I will say that I think it is unfortunate that we don&#39;t have term limits in the house and the senate though&#33;&#33;&#33;   And the fact that I have a bumper sticker on the rear window of my SUV that says &quot;I would rather hunt with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy&quot; probably tells people what side I weigh in on.   Need to go to the mall today and get my new contacts.  I went to the eye dr. yesterday and ordered my glasses thru him, but he charges &#036;30 a box for my contacts and there is a place at the mall where I can get them for &#036;14 a box, so I always take my prescription there.
