As Professional As We Can Be

 

Linda

When an informal group of people form a group in order to accomplish some goal, there is always someone who comes forth as the natural leader. This lady is a born leader. Miss Linda is a lifelong friend who was in my graduating class in high school. She was always smart, quick and a joy to be friends with. It has been such a pleasure to watch how she has matured into one of those natural leaders!!!

 

 

  Billy and Linda

 

 

She has pulled together a small group of adults who would much rather visit and talk with each other into a group of people working for a common goal. Our common goal is a nice 40-year reunion for the classmates of our high school. We’re scattered near and far and it’s been fun finding out about everyone. It has been sad to realize close to twenty of our classmates are deceased. Out of a class of less than two hundred, that’s a pretty significant number.

Miss Linda has my respect for being such a super organized person…she has everything from the last reunion and I’m beginning to think she has everything she collected from high school…and knows where it all is!!! I have a lot of the same “stuff”, I just don’t have a clue as to where it is. Organization is Linda’s middle name, I’m sure.

 

 We are all such professional and mature individuals, aren’t we Greg???

 

When we all get together, we’re like a group of teenagers…all with our own fun agenda!!! Linda laughs with us, or at us and gets us on track once again. She has learned to be the deciding vote on issues and delegates with authority and a smile!!!

 

Here, I’m trying to drum up a little support for myself since I was the one who didn’t get my job done this time…I tried to weasel out of anybody finding out about it…but it didn’t work….I’m sorry…(head bowed in shame)…

 

 

 

“outtakes…aka..the real “us””

See Linda is ready for the shot while the rest of us are still goofing off…

Thank you Linda…for being you…and for putting up with all of our “antics”… You are the driving force behind our class reunion and we all respect you for that. You knew when you started the project that it is a “THANKLESS” job, but you took it on with that great attitude you have…

We do appreciate everything you do!!!

 

This is one super group of people and I’ve loved being with all of them!!!

(Why does Donna have a cast on her foot??? What is it with James and the segway???

Which lady is the Mayor’s wife???, Why does Greg speak Turkish??? Where in the world was Billy when we took all of those group photos??? Why does Linda know all of those criminals lawyers and convicted felons??? Who should you call if the IRS is after you???

My New Blogging Buddy, Shelia @ Pedaling Fast Is Having A Giveaway

 

Miss Shelia @ Pedaling Fast and Trying To Keep Up is having a great giveaway for this weekend!!!

She has a terrific blog and is my newest blogging buddy, we “almost” met in DC…well at least we tried.

We did get to visit by phone later that day. The 8-28 Restoring Honor was so busy that our cell phones quit working and the guides at the event cautioned her not to leave her spot for fear of not being able to get back to it.

Since I have positively no sense of direction my hubby went with me everywhere that day…and we met so many terrific people!!! I was just sorry that Shelia and I could not connect personally.

 

 

 

All of those books recommended reading for understanding how we achieved our greatness in this nation and the shirts and flags are some great items for you to show your political pride. I posted about the Don’t Tread On Me Emblem and flag here.

…Just a walking down the street…doo wah ditty, ditty ditty dum diddy dee…

After looking at my recent photos from Fredericksburg, Va. I’ve decided that I’m probably not the very best company on a sightseeing walk!!! Here are a few of the some two hundred photos that I snapped. We could have seen a lot more if I hadn't stopped every thirty seconds…but then I wouldn’t have been able to post these….hhhhmmmm decisions, decisions….


 Nice horse who was pulling a sightseeing buggy…I guess I wasn’t interested in the buggy since I don’t have a photo of it…



I talked to this little sweetie’s Mom…he was for sale…I wanted him…and I don’t even like Doxies…look  at those eyes!!!

I sure hope he found a wonderful home…his name was Tommy!!!

 Some seasonal goodies were showing up in the windows…love the witches’ legs' table…

This is the mega famous Carls’ Ice Cream shop…it was a tiny place!!! The ice cream was sooooo good…I had strawberry!!!

Such a pretty little beaded purse!!! I don’t know why I didn’t run right in and snatch it up!!!

This one was equally pretty…just not as colorful!!!

Some really cute barn critters!!!

One of the historical houses that line the street…

This is a close up of the roof with the eagles on the slates…I’m sure there is a purpose for these eagles but I don’t know what the purpose is…does anyone know what they are for???

I played peep-eye from outside with this precious little one, he/she was

inside of this building…

Brick sidewalks!!!

I’ll be walking over to the Barnyard Bash today…why not come along with me ???
