Hello all! Now that I'm back from volunteering at the art museum and literally pounding the pavement (one foot is killing me) I'll sit and answer these!

Festivals -- have done it all.

Rain -- many, many times. I've always lived in the southeast. Nothing feels better in the summer than getting wet from a rainstorm.

Can't begin to narrow flavors down -- there are just too many.

Years -- 1991 JFK Jr. So sad to think about "John John". 1925 and the Babe's $5000 fine. Econ people -- what is that in today's dollars? 1896 Chop Suey -- haven't had that in a long, long time.

Love Eleanor's quote. How true!

Allright -- we're over halfway through the week!

Have you ever just stood in the rain, enjoying it in spite of yourself? Absolutely! I love the rain! Running in the rain, doing unmentionables in the rain , walking in the rain, rowing in the rain (although that was never done intentionally). I don't mind the rain as long as I don't have to be dolled up to go anywhere.

Bonus Question:
What is your favorite flavor combination? Chocolate and Salt.

Enjoy what's left of the day folks!!!
