    @ericnliz safe travels to you and Liz. Have lots of family fun, don't end up in the pokey, bring back stories, and don't get hurt! That pretty much covers it.  I can't speak for @Ratkity, but of course I'll behave...if I stay off Amazon! :rofl:

    @Homebodyatheart
      How did you attach the awning to the trailer?  I think I may try something like this.  Thanks!

    @Ratkity, have you noticed how quiet it is on here, and how crazy well behaved we've been. I think we get a badge for behaving, except I'm about done being good...(insert evil grin here!) :relaxed:

    I've been making curtains for the Retro. I am NOT a sewer. Gimme a tool any day. 

    It was a wonderful day to be outside here too. *sigh* Back to work tomorrow. I have two camping trips this month! I know one might have spotty cell service, not sure of the other. :grin:

    And, @Ratkity, the curtains are very appropriate with the pattern, and they look good, too!

    Tanx V - x1000!! I conquered my fear of the sewing machine and making something practical other than a silly halloween costume.  :)

    HE'S BAAAACK! =)
    Had a great time with kids, grandkids, in-laws & outlaws! (Even tolerated the ex-wife!) Was a lot of fun meeting up with old friends and catching up. The Pit Barrel stayed blazing almost the whole time, from prime rib to pork shoulder. The pulled pork sliders were AWESOME! Grandson ended up with graduation chocolate cake face (his mom suggested cutting a smaller piece, but....no, didn't listen to mom!) and ended up all OVER his face, hair, and shirt! :rofl: Funny part...lettering on the cake said; "Congrats, Rent starts July 1st!" Cracked me up. (My daughter in-law says in runs in our genes!) Liz got a good sense of the WHOLE crazy family as my daughter in-laws folks, son, and his girlfriend were there as well as 3 of my kids, 3 grandkids, and my younger brother. After the first day, her comment was.. "And I thought YOU and YOUR SON were the only crazy ones!" HA..SURPRISE! :rofl:  :)
    The WolfT@B was awesome! Basically our own little motel room as the house & son's motor home were to filled to capacity. Heater was great since it got down to the lower 40's at night. (had to turn it down a couple of times) Love the fact that it literally takes about 5 to 10 minutes from un-hook to done! Shocked the family with a 180* turn after we un-hooked ( Liz wanted the door facing the opposite way from where we un-hooked...go figure!) as they were amazed how easy it was to turn all the way around with just the jack wheel. 
    Pretty sure we set a record for Zombies in the shortest period of time in one location. During the graduation party, we had at LEAST 30. I'm thinkin' there were at least 2 converted from Zombies to owners, as I gave at least 5 full fledged question and answer periods at different intervals, inclusive of the usual "what's this do, what's that do, how much, where do you get one", etc, etc.
    All in all, had a great time, towing over & back over Snoqualmie Pass was a breeze, no issues. Glad to be back home, and already planning for the next trip in July!

    Ack! Run for the hills.... wait.. I ain't running anywhere with this bad hip.... Limp towards the tiny incline! :lol:

    Sounds like an excellent time. Liz was probably VERY glad you two had the WolfT@B after meeting your family. I bet she got indoctrinated with "stories" of craziness through the years. My family does this to every new bf my sis brings in *snort*. Better than a shotgun to scare away the unworthy!!

    30 Zombies!!! OMG... we have a winner (I hope you weren't feeding them too - they multiply when you do that).

    Welcome back! :)

    Hey, where's Mrs. @Homebodyatheart?????? Campin'? Thought the Farragut trip started tomorrow. Would like to attend, but Liz's work got in the way. Hate it when that happens! :angry:

    Ahhhh.... @ericnliz is back! Hey, I'm at work! I wish I was camping! Tomorrow is Farragut, we will go after Mr. H. is off work. Should be set up long before sunset! Haven't started to pack yet. That's what I love about Ladybug! Food, clothes, go. And for the record, @Ratkity and I were terribly well behaved while you were gone, which also means we've been saving it all up for when you and Liz got home! We gave Ms. @Verna a well deserved break. :rofl:

    I was trying not to bleed on my fingers while pinning hems on curtains. Ugh. Two windows are done and am waiting on more fabric for the last two windows. Of course, the ramp has it's own bug screen. If I need a curtain there, I'm going for cheap bed sheets! LOL.

    Aww...thanks you guys! You warm my heart! @ericnliz yes it is, and the weather won't be great, but I don't care. I think he is a bit nervous. It should be fun, either way! Now to get to market for food, and pack...sigh!

    Ugh, my curtain fabric arrived! With the rain and storms predicted here, looks like I play "domestic goddess" and yank out that IRON thing with the weirdo metal table (the cover and foam long since deteriorated). 

    I avoided blood stains on the two sets of black and white curtains I've already made and avoided any 3rd degree burns from the iron (it did, however, try to escape and hit the floor - unfortunately, it still works).

    @Ratkity, 'Ya know, they make these things called "thimbles" for finger protection.  =) Might want to try a rubber pad for the floor so the iron doesn't sustain any permanent damage. That thing called "gravity' will get 'ya every time! :bawling::rofl:
    Now, If I can just keep the *#^? squirrels outta Liz's strawberries, I'd be a happy camper! (Already chased 3 out this morning!) :angry:  :anguished:

    Um, well, it's like this.... I'm using a sewing machine. Sometimes I have to rip out the stitching cuz, well, maybe some other fabric on the table got attached to what I was working on.. um, somehow. No, I haven't put my finger under the sewing machine needle (with the machine on). I just have to watch how heavy a foot I put on the controller.

    Note to self: remember, it's not the motorcycle's foot brake - it's not the motorcycle's foot brake. :lol:
