Chiquita, I saw that article. Many of us sent letters to all parties concerned on the island, protesting the insanity of ruining Descanso and adding all the other junk. If people want to play golf, stay in fancy hotels, then go to Newport Beach or Palos Verdes. The pipes on the island and the lack of water are a true concern. I sure hope this project is tabled, forever! It's fun chatting with someone who remembers how the island 'use to be'. |

Hi Chiquita we missed you! So mush sickness going around. Today I heard another one of my favorite patients has Breast Cancer. She's a Teacher but will NOT stop teaching during her Chemo. Post Op, or Rad. Tx. She wants to be kept busy so her mind won't wander. They are not telling her mother who had Dimentia but sometimes is with it. Last year she lost her son and went off so now she is in a Total Care Home. Please send Healing Thoughts, Prayers and light candles for JoanneK |

I can't believe the Human Intruder's were Boy Scout's! If they are that may account how they climbed so quickly both up and down the W.E. nest. If I were their Leader I would toss them out of the Program, and that's just for starter's. They may be easy to find if they are Scout's. All one has to do is take still shots from the video's and go to the nearest Scout Meetings! What a pitty. I hope this theory is wrong. |

Hi CatM. Did you catch anything? Hi Peetie good seeing you in here again. George so glad you have your phone back in working order. In a pinch you could use your Cell you know. The Dog Show is on 8/23/09 for Rally Obedience, Confirmation, Canine Good Citizen's Test. I may work it that day if they will place me in the Confirmation Ring or Canine Good Citizen's Test. I would earn points for our Club Jacket of which I have 185 so far. I need 500, and working the Show will give me 25 more. |

Yep, they should be tossed out of the Scout program, with a big boot. Was there no supervision? Obviously not, just two bad scouts on their own eagle nest adventure. Maybe a fence should be around the nest area, to keep these kids from disturbing the WE Nest or any other nest in the future. I have zero tolerance for stupidity. |

Vynah, sending good positive thoughts your way. Good to see you posting! I'll always remember you and your husband as K10 & K26, walking toward Boccali's. I remember Iggle looking in the sky for K10 & K26, I explained they were walking on the road!

I'm home. Paying bills :wacko: I was walking into the grocery store after work and happened to look up and saw a bald eagle soaring over Turtle Pond. Pointed it out to some people, they looked up and said how could you tell without binoculars. . . I said I'm an eagleholic and I know my eagles. :lol: Good to see Vina and Petra posting. |

If i could figure a way up there it sounds like a fun event to shoot! Not sure what SEPTA rail line would get me there or how easily. My hunch would be either the R2 Warminster line or the R5 to lansdale/doylestown via ambler and glenside. Egads the last time i was up that way was with a very dear friend of mine who is now no longer with us to a super pizza joint called Rizzo's Pizza. I think its in the same area as The Keswick theater too and not too far from the Temple Ambler Campus. I may have to pull out a map and see what i can plan Still no word on my flyingbirdhat from the vendor. I was told via email that it was scheduled to ship out and to expect tracking information by the end of business this past friday. Email said i should have it by this wendesday but given that they havent sent me the usps tracking number nor replied to my email of friday night , sunday afternoon or today, i am getting the feeling of being screwed. I hope i am wrong. IT just irritates me to no end not to have a reply or a promise made and not fulfilled such as the promised tracking number.

I think many people have voiced their displeasure at this sea of change coming to Avalon, Summer818. As you saw in the article, the Pavilion Lodge on Crescent is to be remodeled as well as two waterfront restaurants. Why?? Business is down 25-35% everywhere...hotels and restaurants...I don't think I have seen the restaurants so empty as I did while I was there but the little walk up food joints serving hot dogs, pizza had people lined up 7-10 deep. DS requested I bring him a pizza from Antonios so had to get it the night before...they were making pizzas in there faster than the guy could get them into the oven...it was a mad house there!!! The high end restaurants were having a tough time. Also, so many homes for sale and for rent this year. Allison Wrigley Rusack, great-granddaughter of William Wrigey, Jr. and her husband, Geoffrey initiated this new direction for Avalon two years ago and they are "the spark plugs behind this proposal". Yes, George, need to keep the EIR in mind. Chiquita |

Good Night All, have a couple reports to finish up, then heading home. If the dolphins are surfing tonight, I'll get a pic of them. Usually, around 6:00pm, it's surf time! |

George if you can get to the Warminster Train Station I can pick you up there and take you to the Show. Parts of it are all Breed so there will be a variety of pups in at least 2 rings. My fav is the Confirmation Ring so that being a Specialty will be all German Shepherds. I'm anxious to go see what's worth Showing. My friend may bring his Stud dog who is a ringer for Bell except it's a male. Really handsome pup. He's getting up in years and I just hope he is still around. Two years ago he won Best In Show. Tony was crying to see his old man take the win. He had to hide behind a building so he wouldn't be seen. Still Pfizer was looking all around for him. Merck is his other male who is HUGE! He didn't care for me when I met him. Very protective of Tony so I went into reverse which didn't help matters any. Just didn't feel like being eaten. He was so much bigger then myself! |
