Everybody must  be on "Vacation"  'cept me....  

           Anybody there who isn't...? 

Sherry Hester (Trasp)

I'm here! Just finished a family reunion!
This year was my turn to host. I have 3 siblings.
Our Sister is 91, I am 81,
1 brother 79, the other, 74.
I planned it here in Roswell!
We had a wonderful time.
Only half of our family was able to make it.
I was exhausted when it was over.
I will share a couple of pictures.

What has everyone else done.
It is those Lazy Hazey Dayz of Summer.

 

Charline Lake

Wonderful photos, Sherry!

Paula Carl (Cowee Miller)

What a fun time you must have had!!!

Rex Booth

Sherry,

Nice pictures of you, your two brothers, and sister.  You have quite a room full of relatives!

Thanks for sharing!!

Any who want to say... 

"How I Spent My Summer Vacation"... ??!!!

John Doyal

Sorry, had to take timeout to get hernias that I didn't know about surgicated on.  Everything went well and am doing fine.  Now I'm meshed up inside.  Sherry can you rattle off everyones name in the picture, my family is also large and I have trouble remembering all the names, especially those I only get to see once every few years, for some reason the kids tend to grow.

Dang! That's not much fun spending your 'summer vacation' recouping from surgery! Hope you mesh well and have a speedy recovery and are out chasing horned toads before long!

The Olympics...

Why are the athletes faster this year?

"They gave the starter pistol to Alec Baldwin..." 

Fred Miller

I was going to give a different answer involving gender but I'll go with your answer instead...

Rex Booth

... And a gold medal for firing a gun "without pulling the trigger..."

Fred, if your gender answer is 'tasteful',  post it.

Doesn't Paris have any restrooms...?

Fred Miller

Rex, my definition of "tasteful" and that of others may not always be alike, so I shall just refrain...

Rex Booth

A similar 'definition' was made back in '95 by Bill Clinton. Clinton when questioned about his relationship with Lewinksy, Clinton said: "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is'... is".  Earning him the moniker, "Slick Willy".

Postmodern Jukebox performs it in 1930s Cab Calloway jazz style...

Fred Miller

Found an interesting website...Postmodern Jukebox.  Todays hits yesterday.  they take a popular song today and perform it in a vintage 20s,  30s etc. style...Ezamples....

Rex Booth

Fred,

Your 1930's video version of 'Thriller' proves how imaginative those songwriters are to take a 1980's video and give it a 1930's  sound!.  Very creative! Thanks for posting! 

One of the videos I found on that "Post Modern Jukebox" revealed this...

In 2013 Ellie Goulding did a song called "Burn".  In the following video the song is given a "1960's sound" performed by three ladies!

Fred Miller

Rex, I see you still haven't made it past the 3 ladies in red.....really can't blame you.

Yeah Fred,  every man's fantasy... ha!

Fred Miller

Back on Bocelli for a moment.  I ran across this video of what I have always thought was one of the most beautiful song ever written.  It has been performed by multiple artists.

Here Bocelli is singing with his daughter and she also has a beautiful and powerful voice...
