Thursday #27 - Getaway Vacation

[Corinna]

Catland not my favorite either but got to get rid of extra weight and keep diabetes under contol Merlin loves them werid dog.

[slick]

Here's your coffee Catland. Milk and sugar over there. One denver coming up. Cheese with that?? Cheddar or Monteray Jack??

Corinna: I know what you mean. Max and Speckles have one main job to do too and that's to hold the couch down as well. Here's your protein bar.

As Richard would say DONE! Will we be back in town for tomorrow's party??

Tats, I'll start shucking the corn for the clam bake so it's all done.

[tatsxxx11]

Thanks Slick! You shuck the corn, I'll shuck the clams and oysters! I've already peeled the taters for roasting and the sausage is ready to go. And while I've got the stove on, anyone up for a Monte Cristo? I've got the ham and turkey...it's great with Monterey Jack! Oh, I forgot the fruit bowl; and here's some fresh brewed java. Could you tell?? I ground the beans fresh!

Merlin, you can snuggle on thecouch for as long as you like sweetie. My girls sound too obnxious for a sweet, mellow pup like you!

Richard, eat up. Time to get digging soon!

[slick]

Wow Tats, you've got everything under control.
A question: I've never been to these parts. Would anyone mind if I ran into town for a little Christmas shopping after my chores are done?? Anyone want to join me??

Richard: How's the bar stocked?? Do I need to pick up anything along the way??

Where did Laurie, Logan and Debbie take off to??

[tatsxxx11]

Good idea, Slick! Lots of great little shops all along the main road! I'll clean up the breakfast dishes. Just "don't be late for lunch!" Gotta go find out what happened to the rest of the crew...Looooogan, Debbbbbie, Laurrrrrie????????

[RICHARD]

Here's the seaweed.....

a mimosa for catland.

Done...

Great omlette!!!

Slick,
I packed extra in the baggage hold,
you guys go shopping, I'll dig the ditch....

I think we can fit Jamaica in, what do you guys think?


DONE!

[Logan]

I'm thinking that this is the longest Thursday discussion we have had yet!!!! Looks like we are a bunch of lushes, traveling and drinking our DOTD, for a whole week!! LOL!!! I like Indian Summer and am content to stay in MA with Sandra and her furry ones for a while longer. I guess I do need to come back to SC and work eventually though, darn it.

Is Jamaica next? I think I may have to forego that trip and head home by the weekend. My furry and feathered ones will miss me! Plus, hubby is away, but will be back late on Friday and I want to be here when he gets here!

Logan

[tatsxxx11]

There you are Logan!! So glad you're here..and staying! Now I've got everything packed in the dune buggy...blankets, food, portable bar So whenever the crew gets back, we're off! Oh, do't let me forget the bug spray; and matches!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Looking about puzzled ....
Now WHERE did slick go? I thought she stayed here. Must have misunderstood. Gosh, I wonder if anyone will be at the bar tomorrow and have it open. For us land lubbers and all.
Gosh cats, you may have to put up with my cat nip tea again ....
loud meows of protest float sky ward!

[tatsxxx11]

Don't know where Slick is, Connie! Or the rest of the crew! Maybe they're still shopping Richard, where are you?? Better go check the hot tub Well, at least he dug the pit! I've got the fire going and the lobsters, steamers, corn on the cob, sausages and potatoes slow cooking under their seaweed blanket. Oh, the butter needs to be melted and the clam broth for dunking, heated. The libations bar and the raw bar are all set up, so, when you get home guys, just grab your blanket, your lobster bib and your wet naps and walk down the path to the beach; just follow the smoke P.S....it's getting dark, so bring your flashilights. Maybe I'll bring down some torches, ala Tahitian style...(Hmmm, that's sounds lke a fun destination!) Anyone bring there ukulele?? And where's Don Ho when you need him?? Woops, wrong island! Well, in the words of Scarlett O'Hara, there's always tomorrow, yes tomorrow, TOMORROW!!..........(breaks into song)Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya, tomorrow, you're only a Concord flight away!!!!!!!!TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOmorrow, tomorrow, oh, enough already; I must really be bored. I'm sitting here belting out Broadway show tunes all by my lonesome self; sniff, sniff...I need a drink. Speaking of drinks...WHERE'S RICHARD???

[tatsxxx11]

Wonders to herself if maybe it was something she said maybe they snuck on the plane and took off....(faint smell of jet fuel hangs heavily in the air...)

[Logan]

Count us in!!!! No tomorrows for us, we're living for tonight with the tiki torches and all!!!

[tatsxxx11]

Woo hoo!!! At least there will be 2 for dinner! We'll give them a bit more time to check in!

[lynnestankard]

Sorry I slept in - it's the jet lag kicking in!!

Sorry Sandra - lovely song that isn't it - any coffee left? Or a cup of tea? Or OJ will do. Where's everyone gone?

Who was gambling in their sleep?!!

I had a lovely furry kid snuggling up with me - who was it?

Lovely smell - something cooking?

Lynne

[slick]

Hey guys, I'm back from Christmas shopping. Sorry I'm late Sandra.

**lugs bags down on the grass** **grunt**

I gots lots of stuff. The rest of the gang came with me but I lost them lost them at the turnpike. I think they might be stuck in a bar somewhere. Either that or they found another way back and they'll be here soon. Now, what can I do to help out?? Is Richard looking after the bar??

WHOA!!!! That a might big hole Richard dug. Everyone, watch your step. We could the Queen Mary in there

MMM something smells delicious. Hi Lynn. You must had a good sleep because you didn't move a muscle all night long.
