I lived in Minnesota for 38 years and sorely miss the state and my friends there. I lived in Stillwater by the St. Croix river and so saw lots of ice fishers.<br /><br />The gold at the end of the trip was, of course, being with your family. Grandchildren are a treasure and a joy. Peace.

Now that is bloody scary.<br />I was on a plane just outside Singapore when we hit a C.A.T - they<br />don't show up on radar............the interior of the plane was<br />a scene of chaos. Luckily I had my seat belt on but I had quite a<br />large rash as a result of it holding me to the seat.<br />Some people when we eventually landed were taken off to hospitals.<br />Broken parts of them (ribs and arms predominately)...ah it was hellish.<br />ColinHuggybearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517411617275367396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791768581127769171.post-74631918269065420542017-05-20T19:52:15.512-07:002017-05-20T19:52:15.512-07:00I saw where someone got the shiny part stuck in th...I saw where someone got the shiny part stuck in their throat.

The whole family will gather on the 2nd and 3rd for family time. That hasn't happened since October. New granddaughter since then and now another one (younger daughter's first) is on the way for July. Never heard of those spinners but then I'm not teaching school and having to take them away from students. Remember those days?Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992626996077874832noreply@blogger.com
