*** A Few Bumps in the Road ***
*
On the flight down south (Ava's first airplane ride) she had to pee, but it was too late to get up, we were about to land. When you gotta go, you gotta go! The lady sitting behind Ava will probably always put her carry-on bag in the overhead compartment from now on.
*
Papa Thom and amusement rides don't mix so well. He did manage to keep the contents of his stomach from blowing all over Space Mountain.
Barely.
*
Papa Thom's cell phone is most likely sleeping with the fishes at the bottom of the Pirates of the Carribean Sea.
*
Jessica and another lady got into a little "hen squabble" over 15 feet of prime curbside seating along the parade route that the other lady declared she was "saving." Jessica decided that was a little excessive. She sat herself and Ava down in the middle of the "saved" area.
Sorry, chicky - first come, first seated.
Papa Thom commented that he won't be taking Jessica to a Raider's game.

Immortal Inspiration

This image is from a book about the human body (the section on blood) and has always fascinated Miss King.

Ghoul, Ghoul, what do you see?
I see Frankenstein inching toward at me.

















Frankenstein, Frankenstein, what do you see?
I see a Skeleton dragging toward at me.
Skeleton, Skeleton, what do you see?
I see a Troll hiding by a tree.
Troll, Troll, what do you see?
I see a Mummy lurking toward me.
Mummy, Mummy, what do you see?
I see a Witchy Witch flying over me.
Witchy Witch, Witchy Witch, what do you see?
I see a Vampire sneaking up on me.
Vampire, Vampire, what do you see?
I see a Werewolf lunging at me.

















Werewolf, Werewolf, what do you see?
I see a Spider creeping toward me.
Spider, Spider, what do you see?
I see a BIG SHOE COMING DOWN ON ME!
