In Reply to: You took the gnome on vacation? lol - sm
had him sitting on the 2nd balcony railing and went down to take a picture and laugh at ourselves (of course) and SPLAT! He hit the floor!! Too bad we couldn't get a picture of OUR faces!! All the OOOHHH NOOOO looks!
We've enjoyed our little gnome, as ugly as he is with his duct-taped head!! LOL
He's still a member of the family and has his little photo album complete with sticky-note messages on the pictures proudly displayed in the back den! LOL

Help with pictures that got wet…PLEASE
I am hoping some of you who were unfortuante enough to have to deal with severe water in your homes can give me some ideas.
We had a flood in our basement a few years ago. Everything was up off the floor. Our basement is generally dry. However, when I was cleaning a week ago I came across a box of pictures that I had no idea were left down there. They had gotten stuck together. I have tried putting them in a food dehydrator, using silicone packets in the box, but so far nothing has helped. These were mostly baby pictures of our adopted daughter so it is especially heartbreaking for me.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can get these dried out and apart? I'll try anything. The negatives are long gone.
Thanks for the pictures
I hope you are doing okay. Your dogs are both beautiful! Now they are together again!
We had our pictures made before the
wedding so the ex saw it just before the wedding. (Maybe it is bad luck, lol). We didn't want to keep the guests waiting, so therefore majority of pictures were made about an hour before the ceremony.
It could be just one of those "funny" pictures
we all take. Just because she is holding a gun and her husband looks like he is smoking something other than a cigarette may not mean anything.
Speaking of pictures.....
My husband never knew his maternal GF, but was named after him. His maternal GF died long before he was born. Well, by the time my husband was in his 20s, he was the spitting image of his GF, right down to the mustache. My children used to look at the picture of their great GF and think it was daddy. They could have been twins. So, to have his mom name him after her father and then he turn out to be his spitting image, that is unbelievable! She had four other sons and none of them look like their GF.
pictures before it was painted - sm
lets see if this worked....
slides to pictures
Good one! Where did you find the pictures? nm.

Did you see the pictures of her refrigerator in the Bahamas??????
Loaded with all kinds of IV drugs! Huge bottle of liquid methadone and a bunch of other vials. Oh, and a box of TrimSpa next to it. Ay-yi-yi.
I didn't notice that in the pictures.
I think she actually looks like ZsaZsa Gabor's husband, the prince. lol. I don't think it is Larry B's baby, for some reason I just don't. And if not, I'd really feel bad for him but he should not be jumping the gun considering how many men she supposedly slept with.
On the toolbar, there should be little pictures or icons
and there is one symbol looks sort of like a backwards P - if you run mouse over it, says show/hide. Try clicking that ;)
Just wanted to thank everyone who shares pictures SM
of their precious pets! I just love seeing them and hearing their names and stories. It makes me happy to hear so many of you have rescued these precious animals and are providing loving homes!  Thanks for all you do for our aminal friends! 
photoshopped pictures of the stars
These are really, really funny!

My daughter took all her friends' pictures
She has a 35-mm SLR film camera, nothing fancy. Her friends paid for the film, developing at a good camera store,and gas for her car. They brought different outfits and accessories and drove around town one day taking pictures in different locations. One of them used her camera and took her picture. They ended up being some of the best photos in the yearbook. Very different from all the rest of the posed pictures taken at the beach. Didn't cost me anything, so I gave her the $65 for her yearbook.
Finally pictures of Bear available.
Introducing Bear - our new black spitz mystery dog (possibly chow mix, Belgian mix, or my favorite, Swedish Lapphund!).
Thanks to all that post their furries pictures
I have 3 furkids but would not know how to post in the first place. Just to let everyone know what a pleasure it is to see all these babies.
It's not hard if you have pictures saved
on your computer. There are many sites that make it harder to post than this one because here you just click the line that says "Click here to Upload Image" and then search on your computer, usually under Pictures, and choose the thumbnail you want to post and click on it.

Bummer the pictures don't blow up more.
I'd love to see all the little details on them...must be just amazing to look at. I sure do love sparkly things!
I think I've seen replicas for sale, like on QVC or even E-Bay if you ever wanted to start collecting. Have no clue how much even fake stuff would go for. Even if they're just covered in crystals, I'll bet they're still expensive. I've always wanted to collect those silly little crystal animals and things you see in Hallmark stores. Oh the way they catch those lights! I visited a Swarovsky crystal place in some mall once and I was just mesmorized....oh the sparklies!
how do you print pictures from webshots
My daughter sent me a link to her webshots account. I save as to my desk top and then when I print the they came very grainy. She claims it is because they do not want people stealing pictures and you have to pay for them. They are her pictures and she cannot even print them out. I think we are missing something there.
So cute! Could you send more pictures? n/m

changing 35 mm slides to pictures?
Has anyone recently changed 35 mm slides into pictures? Do you know who can do it? I just found loads of slides from my honeymoon 28 years ago. I forgot my husband and I used to take slides.
TIA
No offense, but she needs a more explicit book. With pictures, for SM
her and her husband to try, eh, different things. We are not talking specifically romance here, but nitty. gritty, spark flying stuff.
I posed for pictures...which means they're out there somewhere!! LOL nm

You could try Craig's list. Are you including pictures with your ads?
That always gets people too. Pictures of sweet little puppies.... AWWWW.
My family takes pictures of the open
casket. When my dad was still living and someone was showing these pictures, he would go through and take them out for me because he knew I could not stand looking at them. When he died, my mom had pictures made and had a copy made for me. That was 12 yeras ago and to this day she still has those copies, I really don't want them. She even had us stand by the casket and had pictures made (her, my sister, and me).
Are the Palin/Johnston baby pictures worth
$300,000? I just heard where certain magazines might pay this price. Whatca think about this? Lets see, this baby is Tripp- then there is Trig, Trap, all those cutesy names.
My vacation and yours?
I am this year planning on taking myself out to the wild west visiting Yellowstone, Montana, Wyoming and the like. My family does not like to travel so this year, as last when I went to Alaska, I will be traveling by myself there only to meet up with a tour and it is loads of fun! Hopefully as in Alaska there will be not only the beautiful scenery but also loads of animals. I am in 7th heaven just drooling about this all. Everything planned out for you, all you have to do is pay your money and meet up with their start point. Could not be easier... I will send you postcards!
vacation
If you haven't seen your brother and family for years, I say go for the pricier condo with more room. The last thing you want is to be on top of each other, getting on each other's nerves. 8 days can be a long time! Go for it and celebrate spending time with your loved ones. After all, it's just money!
Vacation
My kids start back to school this month.
Why did you vacation with them?
And why did SIL agree to vacation with you? If I had a family member who did not like me or vice versa, no way would I spend the time or money to vacation with them. I find your brother to be at fault also. If you two are so close, why did he not speak to wife and especially daughters and tell them to act civilly at least for the one week? He is the parent too, and to allow them to behave like that, especially to his sister, is wrong.
Vacation
When you have plenty of time you should continue where Skyline Drive changes into the Blue Ridge parkway and goes down into North Carolina. The spring or fall would be the best times. There are miles and miles of beautiful mountains. The highest mountains are at the lower part of the Blue Ridge parkway. Some things you could see along the way would be the Mabry Mill, Biltmore House at Asheville, and the viaduct.
You need a vacation.
dd
at least you got a vacation!!

Vacation? What's that
Oh yes, that's what you take when you don't owe the IRS thousands in dollars because they didn't take out enough last year and this year your taxes double (and I had a hard enough time surviving on what was left after sending in taxes last year).
A vacation isn't a vacation when
Your in-laws wake up at 6:00 a.m. when you want to sleep till 9:00.
Your houseguest mistakes your guest room for a hotel with maid service.
Your hostess has a Doberman with an anal gland issue.
I'm with you - give me a hotel!!!!
You took the gnome on vacation? lol
Getting a kick out of this thread! Thanks ladies. lol
According to my vacation planner
where I go Wyoming, Utah and the like is west, leaving from Denver-have been to California but am sure will enjoy wherever it is. Going solo, my family do not want to join me in my vacations. Oh well, I will send them a postcard.
Florida vacation
There are several things to consider when planning your vacation to the theme parks: If you stay in Kissimmee you'll have to drive to the parks. There has been a lot of road construction on southwest side or Orlando. I don't know if it's completed or not. The hotels associated with the parks have a lot of extras for the kids so you can relax while they watch movies in the pool, ect. The rooms are often suites with murals and fun beds for the kids. There are some that are close to the parks, with shuttles, that might be a bit more affordable than the big ones on the parks. While you certainly have to go to the Magic Kingdom, especially for the younger kids, if you love the big rides Universal's Islands of Adventure is a must too. Our kids are into the bigger thrill rides so they prefer Universal. There's also a nice area for the younger kids at Islands of Adventure that has a Dr Suess theme. October will still be hot down here, but if you want to take a day trip over to the beach it's best to come before December. December temperatures are typically fall-like, but it can get down into the 40s on occasion.
I would never vacation in Mexico
They are sucking the blood out of this country. They come here by the thousands everyday because people like you will hire them.
They pop out babies every year at the American taxpayer's expense, and then we pay for their health care and education.
They sneak into this country, keep wages down, crime and the birth rate up, overcrowd our schools and our jails, then have the nerve to march in our streets and DEMAND citizenship.
On their side, they do not respect our laws, will not extradite criminals wanted in the U.S.
I would never give them one penny of my vacation money. They are NICE to you when you are there because they want your money.
OP says nothing about vacation just camping.

Please Please enjoy your vacation. sm
I just went on vacation with my family and had something (nothing compared to your worry) that I just had to put on the back burner and enjoy every second I possibly could. I hope you have faith, because God does not give us anything that we truely can not handle. I will pray that your worries are unfounded. You have been given some wonderful advice above and just believe in that. Happy vacationing.
vacation from husband
Don't divorce him, it's a hard life out here without a husband and there's no prince charming to ride up and save you from being destitute. Doesn't matter if you love him, if you don't like to do the same things, just do your own thing and let him pick up your bills. Don't even really have to like him, just tolerate him. I had one who made 75k+ and paid all the bills, my money was just that, my money, and now I'm supporting myself and my older sister and cranking it out for this bloody bonus.
Take a cruise or go on a vacation by yourself (sm)
give him a taste of what it is like without you there! And if he doesn't change - then leave. Even if you just leave temporarily....
Vacation ideas
Am looking for somewhere not real expensive but interesting, with either malls or shopping areas, for my daughter and myself to travel to on vacation, distance does not really matter - have been to Mall of America and the Sawgrass Mills in Florida, looking for something similiar, - any suggestions would be appreciated.
Vegas Vacation
"haven't seen a beatin' like that since somebody stuck a banana in my pants and turned a monkey loose."
I'm on vacation this week, so ...
brought some movies along to catch up on. I watched 27 Dresses, which was just okay. I loved PS I Love You. Also been watching The Office with my sister and DS, and Emergency!, which aren't exactly movies, but lots of fun. It's been a great week with my family. Almost hate going back to work on Monday!
Jamaican vacation
...anyone planning on going to Jamaica to Couples Negril - save your money. My fiance and I returned from there after 2 weeks vacation. We frequently visited the "Couples" message boards and were very excited to go. Now I find out that they only allow "positive" postings about their resorts. If we had known the truth, we could have saved a few thousand dollars. In a nutshell - bad service, chunks of glass on the beach, employees mocking visitors (although if you don't speak the lingo you wouldn't know this) and "get your own drink because I can't get a tip" attitude. We were thinking about planning our wedding there but have changed our minds. The mgmt. hoards all tips and the employees never see the "pool" of tips that they "allow" vacationers to give.
For my vacation I have a lady
who comes over once a day to feed and water my 3 cats. I would rather have them here at home where they are comfortable than leaving and going to be caged up while I am gone. This is on trips hubby and I take. On trips I made alone hubby is here every other day and he gives extra food and water in between the days he is home. Of course he always gets calls most every day wanting to know how they ate, did they have their "treats," etc. They give me so much pleasure and I want them to have the necessities (and a few treats, their toys, etc., etc.)
Summer Vacation
We plan on going to either the Jersey Shore or Maine for a week this Summer. I've never been to either place even though we live in NY State and it's within a reasonable driving distance. Also, my daughter's friend is visiting from Florida, and we'll also take a lot of day trips that week to keep her entertained.
Wanting a vacation now
My husband never wanted to go on any vacations. So, when the kids were young, my kids and I went on a vacation every year. We either drove or one time took the train to the Grand Canyon from Chicago. Not once did my husband go with us. We went twice to Disney and had such a wonderful time. My kids are now grown, and I really miss those vacations. My husband missed out a lot.
