Welcome to my page

This is a picture of the Naperville Riverwalk in the fall of 2008 on a early Sunday morning. I love to walk along the Dupage River early morning and even in the Winter. Just up around the bend is a bridge with rapids running underneath it - you can listen to the water - very nice.

Thanks for the welcome Julie - I'm afraid I'm still in kindergarten (preschool maybe) when it comes to the website set ups - Well, this should be a good learning experience. Sorry for the clutter - but I'm be taking it one day at a time. My goal for today: take down my Easter/spring items in the house. I have more to do but lets start with one. Blessing to all you enter.

Does mymare refer only to the name Mary or could there possibly be a mare that's a horse in your life??? Good luck on setting up your page. There is definitely lots to be learned here on this site. Please stop by & see me on my page someday. Welcome to our world. Enjoy!!

Hi Mary! Thanks for visiting my page. I'm trying to make my way around everyone's pages. It's really nice meeting new people and talking to everyone! Is your son doing a summer session at college? My daughter just got home from college on Monday. We still haven't organized all of her stuff. Come by and visit anytime. Enjoy your planting.

Mary,
I generally use andouille (ahn-du-ee)unless a friend has brought me some fresh deer sausage...certainly wouldn't pass that up...lol

What your friend gave you was probably some andouille...we have some awesome meat packers/sausage makers down here. In fact it seems that EVERYONE is a good cook down here...we do love to party and eat..combine that with the perfectly seasoned seafood and fresh game and got good food indeed! You'll have to come on down, chere and see for yourself!

Hello Mary! It was nice of you to drop in for a visit. I must apologize, as I thought I had already welcomed you to your page, but I see I didn't. I'll leave my traditional double chocolate fudge beavertail pastry for you to enjoy, and a small bottle of Canadian maple syrup. Cheers!

for dropping by today and checking out my youtube.
Robert Flack - 'killing me softly with his song' I believe was written about Don McLean if my memory serves me correctly. Not sure which song of his she was refering to, but all in all its a great song, regardless of the who, how and why.
Have a great day/night and I will pop back in again soon.

Hi Mary, and so nice to have you stop by for a visit. Arthur continues to do well and keep us entertained as do our other two cats. We've been busy gardening, having a street sale (never again!) and are on some crazy social whirl this week--why does everything happen at once? So, like you, I got sustenance from a slice of key lime pie. That Cyndi can sure bake! Have a great day!

Hi, Mary! Thanks for stopping by. Coastal Georgia is lovely though most folks traveling through on I-95 don't even realize we're here! I used to live in Illinois. I was born in Oak Park, grew up in Crystal Lake and then worked and lived in Chicago for several years before moving East.

Mary - thanks for dropping in a couple of days ago! Wil graduated in three years with a degree in physics. He has moved back home for a year to get some job experience (he started today on a 90-day trial job doing some very challenging programming - if that doesn't work out there are some other places locally he can fall back to).
Our youngest has decided to move back home after two years of college and go to the local junior college. It will be a MUCH cheaper place for her to make some decisions than the private university she was attending.
So we have gone from empty house to two back at home!!
We also are sort of . In general we are glad at this point in time.

Hello Mary - I thought I had visited your page but I can't see my calling card anywhere. I haven't been on the site too much lately so have some visiting to catch up on.
Thanks for visiting my place recently. I hope you enjoyed your visit. Call again when you've got time and we'll share a bottle of our local Goundry Unwooded Chardonnay.

Hi Mary. Welcome to Sudoku Land. I'm SURE you'll enjoy.

It Seems as if I'm not alone in thinking I had been here before now to wish you a very warm , only to find out I hadn't! Although I'm late I'm sure glad you are here and hope you enjoy being here as much as we do. You have plenty of company being challenged with all there is do learn, but relax and ask for help....somebody usually has some helpful answers. I'm leaving a taste of Philadelphia as my page warming gift to you. The basket contains goodies that have made Philly famous, cheese steak sandwiches, Franks Orange soda, soft pretzels, Tastycakes and of course scrapple. Hope you enjoy. Please drop by my page when you find time, and we can chat awhile!

Gday Mymare, to be honest, the reason I loved school holidays the most was because I didn't have to get up early and try to drag 4 very reluctant children out of bed. Funny thing is it seemed to be easier when I was working full time, they had no choice but do it to a schedule, now that I'm back to being an 'at home' mum we can never get to school on time! Go figure???

Hi Mary,
Pretzel city is the nickname for Freeport, IL. It is the mascot for the high school team 'Pretzels'. One of a kind. We are 20 miles south of Monroe Wisconsin and 22 miles west of Rockford. Hunkering down for a storm tonight. Getting windy here already. Have a good day

Hi Mary
Thanks for dropping in for a visit.
I hope you get a chance to see Tassie and the 'North Island' as I heard some Tasmanians refer to the mainland. It's such a diverse country with surprises at every turn.
Be careful with the treadmill antics, they can be scarey!! (Just watch funniest home videos!)
