Thursday #256-A Play date?

[RICHARD]

I need some help with the sand box......

I want to welcome you all to the Mario Memorial Play Area!

I cleared out the area below the patio and put in some swings, a slide, merry-go-round and the Mario Monkey Bars!

There is nothing better than a swing or a ride on a merry-go-round to keep me smiling.

I'll fire up the see-ment mixer for drinks. Banana Daquiris?

I think angel hair pasta is in order!

We have cherry and blueberry cheese cake, popcorn too?

Wouldn't some cotton candy be a hoot?

--------------

Lady,
Come here for some hugs. I know......I miss having someone hanging from the ceiling and pulling on my hair.

Excuse me, I need to go into the lost and found. There is something in my eyes.

[Cinder & Smoke]

OMG!

Is that Bowser chasing the Monkey on the Merry-Go-Round!?



GOOD JOB, Bar-Keep!
< sniff >

(Dust in my eye)

[gini]

Gosh, it must be the Santa Ana winds kicking up - they always make my eyes tear up.

Look - the swing is moving back and forth - but there is no one on it.

This is a wonderful play area you have created Richard - just perfect. I think all of us will be spending a lot of time here now that the weather is better.

A banana daiquiri - what a way to start the day.

Did anyone notice the plaque next to the big tree??

Dedicated to our friend and mascot
MARIO

laugh, and love!

Yes Phred, that dust is flying everywhere. It got into my eyes as well!!
I'll take a Spanish Coffee to go please ~~sniff sniff~~ Thank you.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

That wind keeps pulling my hair!!! (and eating my popcorn) *sniff*

Thanks for the plaque. I always forget the little details.

I wanted to plant a Blueberry tree too....But I'll wait until more people show up.

One Coffee, espanol?
DONE!

Miz G,
Banana Daquiri?
DONE!

Phred,
It sure is. I want a ride on it after they are done.
If you want a turn I'll push for everyone!

MOFF, You sure can.

OnE BB smoothie?

Done?

Ya think a pirate treehouse for the plaque tree would be too much?

What would Mario think of everyone wearing sunglasses?

[Karen]

Richard, dear, blueberries grow on bushes, not trees! Even the "high bush" berries are still very bush-shaped, just taller. We can, however, plant a blueberry patch in Mario's memory, and put a path to a bench in the middle. A big and comfy enough bench for whomever needs a resting place, complete with room for Lady and maybe the blue/orange cat!

I think what tree would be best for a Mario memorial would be a good crabapple tree. Why? Pretty flowers in the spring for a certain monkey to nibble for fun, and then, later in the summer, hard little apples that are good for lobbing at unsuspecting passersby and good twisty branches for climbing. How about that?

Grey rainy-ish day here, not to be boring, but chai, please?

[cassiesmom]

I got those March winds in Chicago, the ones that bring the April showers, kicking up dust. <sniff> Here, I brought some bananas for smoothies, would anybody like one with me?

I should have known....for a long time I thought they grew in the square plastic boxes. To dumb Cah Lee Fuh Nee Ahns Everything grows on trees!

Your suggestions are great..Let me get out my saw and hammer.

LOL, that cat is still blue? We better watch out-we'll get a ticket for coloring it!


CM,
I'll take those, Go for a ride on the swingset and I'll blend you up a smoothie.
DONE!

[Randi]

I'm bringing a Cherry tree... where's a good spot to plant it? Bartender, you decide!

Have just baked a huge loaf of bread, it's actually quite yummy - anyone want a slice? I'll take a Café con leche with that, please - and a drop of Grand Marnier in it.

[lvpets2002]

Did SomeOne Say Mario Lets Play in the Sand Box?? Well Here I am with my Buddy PupPup.. Richard since I am a year younger can I Please have a LIT with some cherries..

[davidpizzica]

I'm still recovering from LES for Mario! A banana smoothie will help with the recovery. I love Mario's memorial play area and the dedication plaque. I may have to try the swing set after having some of Randi's delicious bread.

[slick]

Well, it's pretty quiet around here....anyone want to help me make some noise??? Who wants the other side of the see-saw!!

I've got a hankerin' for a taco or two.....and maybe a beer or two wash it down. Thanks bartender.

[davidpizzica]

Hi, Slick. I have the other side of the see-saw! Tacos and a big glass of diet Pepsi will hit the spot right now!

[smokey the elder]

I think a banana daiquiri would taste really fine right now. Here's to you, Mario!
