the same way you find the subject matter boring quotes can be boring if you have no interest in reading them or what they have to say. .
Umm, I never said that exercise and photos were boring. What I DID say was that it would be nice to have more than JUST those 2 items monopolizing the thread. Quite simple really, just expanding it.
You sound angry. That is too bad.
Is it all right if I include the joke for the day? My husband that you will find I call Mr. VA on the threads because he was born in Virginia so we can't call him Mr. NCN (North Carolina Native) just peaked his head in the door and mentioned to me that maybe we should go to Flagstaff on vacation instead of Santee Cooper, South Carolina because Arizona needs the rain.
Our daughter got married in September of 1989. They went to Charleston on their honeymoon and two weeks later here comes Hugo. Next vacation was on the Outer Banks of North Carolina and shortly thereafter here comes another really bad hurricane. We started saying that maybe they could get free vacations by calling places and telling them they were planning a vacation there and maybe the place would pay them to go somewhere else so no hurricane would follow.
With us it is rain. Last September we went to Smuggler's Notch, Vermont and I have never heard such rain coming down since I grew up in the mountains of North Carolina. I have pictures of Branson with water up around picnic tables near the lake. An umbrella was so help whatsoever when we visited New Orleans earlier this year. It rained sideways four out of five days we were there. I think it rained after we got back in our room on the fifth day. We left in the rain and the sun came out the next day.
When they brought our car around for us to go home my husband asked the valet when their dry season was in New Orleans and maybe we could come back then. He said, "This is the dry season." LOL

Hope you got that. LOL
I got it!! Thanks! I think adding jokes to the thread is a great idea. One can NEVER laugh too much.
I saw a program about eagles on public TV yesterday. Their eggs weigh 1/4 lb. Are ostrich eggs bigger than that? Now watching a show like that is something I never used to have the time to do. If I sat down in front of the TV I was so tired that I usually went to sleep.
Today we are ignoring the parades around us and just doing the normal at home. I am just not in the mood for crowds today. It's Independence Day so I am being independent.

That's a good one--that you are being independent on Independence Day. When I had family around we'd always have a cookout but NEVER EVER in my life have I ever gone anywhere for the 4th. That's a day to stay put and avoid traffic at all costs. Well, actually, one time long ago we did make the mistake of driving to Cape Cod around the 4th, never found a place to stay, and drove all the way home again.

I'm being independent today too.
We live near the small town of Waxhaw, North Carolina. It has the best parade ever. It is traditional that we go to that parade. Waxhaw is a tourist town so it fills up starting at breakfast since there are so many good places to eat and so many antique shops. We were at the first Waxhaw Fourth of July parade and for years we attended it every year. The parade is so popular that it has grown into an all day event with dancing on the street into the night.
This is very unusual for us. That parade is the event of the year and we could be talking to everybody we know or ever knew. Independent is the word for the day. Sorry to be so boring about this.
Just to give you an idea... nothing like another photo op!
Yes, I believe that is bigger. Wow!
