The fireworks weren't cancelled and they were spectacular! So nice to be able to step out the back door and see 'em...though the trees are getting bigger every year to make it more experimental finding just the right spot for viewing.

The next door neighbors were saying that next year the Taste will be on Harriet Island. Bummer! We'll actually have to drive somewhere to see the fireworks.

Ares - It can't be nearly as bad over a DSL line as it is on a dial up connection...though you have my sympathies.

Just heard a message on my machine thismorning that our friends had their baby on July 4th! a boy! only 5 lbs 12 oz. 19 inches long---that is basically what Sarah weighed (5 lb 9 oz)Whitney was 6 lbs 5 3/4 oz....anyhow, I think they called him Ethan (note:I had no coffee at the time I was listening and eyes were not quite open).

Hi all!

Back from a week or so up north! Marley had to play chaufer a couple days, driving back to the cities Wed. to pick up his dad, bro, nephew, and friend, and then driving them back Sat night; but a good time was had by all.
On the 4th we went to Goosberry falls for a couple hours, then to Duluth for an hour or so, then to a parking area out on HWY 61 to have a small fire by the lake and watch the simultaneous firework displays from Superior and Duluth. We've done basically the same thing the last 4 years, but always with different people. It was a great day!

FINALLY!!!!! I'm back on! how is everyone? artemis, I've been to gooseberry falls, It's so pretty out there, gonna have to get back there one of these day's. hubby has never been there so I guess I should take him. camping has been great this year, except for last weekend when a storm came through, we were trying to get the awning down before the wind took it and lightning hit near by and gave me and hubby a pretty good jolt, we did manage to save the awning though! :) others were not so lucky, lots of campers calling their insurance company's! hope everyone is well! will come back soon as long as my puter keeps working now! MCL!

...So I thought that I'd start up in Battle Creek, and if the clues changed my mind, I might go check out Highland. ....NO WAY would they ever hide it in a tiny park, you remember what happened to Conway!

I think this unseasonably warm weather might affect the snow pack, I hope the disc Gods took this into consideration. Geeze! It's too warm for a parka tonight!!!

Hey! Where'd the dead threads go? :(

Oh well...

Went to the Sylvia Browne seminar tonight w/my Sis-in-Law.

It was great! She's so straight forward and down to earth, and she's so funny! I enjoy the psychic and past life aspects, as well as the spiritual aspects, but I don't agree with all of her teachings (I can't say I agree with allof anyschool of thought)

Ares, could MS Office cause my windows protection error on Win/98?

Wed, 07/10/2002 - 6:53 PM Permalink
ares




possibly. but it could also be a physical problem with the hardware too. i had an old pentium running as my firewall box right up until last nite. i couldn't keep the thing running for more than 24 hours and have it be reliable as the bridgehead mail server, and external dns server. swapped my old 486 mobo in and its been working just fine. and that was on linux.
