Do nothing....

It's not often that someone asks you to do nothing. But have you ever really tried to do nothing...absolutely nothing for 2 minutes? See if you can sit still for 2 whole minutes. Click on the picture. Listen to the waves, let go... Hey, it's good to let go sometime.

Back from Hiatus (Interlude)

Did I say hiatus? No, I was mistaken, it was more like a pause, a break, an interlude. Yeah. I kind of like that last one. Interlude it is!!! Well, anyway, I've been poked, prodded by some our bloggin' friends to get back to the Island. *grins* A sharp blade in the back is quite persuading. So here I am, back from my interlude!!

Enjoy your drugs, er...I meant Spiders on Drugs!

FORK!!!!!

It's a fork...not a spoon or a knife..not even a spork. It's that thing right in the middle of our way that makes us stop and think...sometimes too much. It's a decision marker. Make your decision here. Take your time...it's not moving. Left, right...over or under? You decide...and remember it's only a decision. You can change your mind. It happens. You could hit another fork in the road tomorrow. You'll have to make another decision. Maybe making decisions make you uncomfortable...worrying about the unknown...worrying about how this decision will affect your life or other's lives. It's fork. It's ok...just do what you think is right for you. Go ahead....the next fork is wating.

It's true...

...they exist!! I saw one in my bathtub yesterday. hehe

Finally, scientists have found an answer....now, can we please move on? There are other chicken conundrums to solve... such as, boneless chicken, chicken lips, and the meaning behind the first joke you learned as a child..."Why did the chicken cross the road?"

The box is more nutritious??? Don't listen to Mom....

Which will it be??

Kites over Lake Michigan - Two Rivers, WI

Nashotah Beach, Two Rivers, Wisconsin - Sept. 6
Here's a great view of the kites as we walked along the shore of Lake Michigan.
Many colorful kites dancing in the air. The beach was absolutely packed with
families playing in the lake and sand. Many brought their kites and
attached them to their beach chairs and kids. heheh




Children gathered for the candy drop from a kite up high.
It was a big hit!!


A couple of people preparing the launch of a windsock/kite.


Launch of the jolly roger by a event-goer. Nice choice, mate!


Even Chinstrap (penguin ground flag) was there to enjoy the fun.


Huge flags lined the beach to celebrate the day.
The way the light shone through them was awesome.


A brightly colored garden of ground flags and windsocks fluttering
in the wind.


Someone launching a very large bird kite into the air.


There were many of unusual and fun kites flying high.....
A red octopus kite.


Bucky!!


Butterflies...


and so many more....


Food and activities galore....


Even the local nuns enjoyed Kites over Lake Michigan.
I loved when their scarves blew around in the wind like windsocks at
the lake. A very fun day all in all.... I'm going back next year!!! ~Cheers!!

A stop in Marinette...Rail House Brewpub

About a month ago we stopped in the Rail House Restaurant
and Brew Pub in Marinette Wisconsin.


This is their beer sampler railcar. So many brews here

A list of their brews.


The food was delicious...we tried the fish, and this wonder...


a New Orleans Style Muffeletta!!! This tasty sandwich is
worth the trip-let alone the good beers they brew!!

Click here for their menu and beer list. If you're up in that
area...check it out...it's really great!!! ~Cheers!!!
