Put your cursor on the screen and right click. You will get a menu that includes size. Put your cursor on Size, and it will pull up a secondary menu. One of the options will be Full Screen.

Then to drive all the roads stated in Hawaii, then KAYAK to Japan, then take the roads stated in Japan, then KAYAK to Brisbane. WE all thought that was funny!

I can't believe they wouldn't let you at least take the Chunnel part way!!!!
Have you been to Australia before? If you can, 2 of the things I really enjoyed when I visited my sister there were going to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, (http://www.koala.net/index.htm) and taking the paddle boat cruise down the Brisbane River (http://www.kookaburrariverqueens.com/). Both of those are in Brisbane.
So.....STILL no baby!!! Humph! Well, will check back in after I get to work.
Kay, at 17, Kyle SHOULD be able to work all day, eat, take a short nap & stay up all night!!!! (see, I "let" him take a nap!)
Catch y'all later....looks like I'm gonna be late to work. Oh well...

I've been to Sydney, Canberra, Lithonia and the Blue Mountains. It was a REALLY good trip that Machel and I took together. We had a B L A S T ! !
I dragged her into the Minus 5 Vodka Bar. That was a pretty cool place, it's now named something different. We did a tour of Sydney Harbor, went up to Bondi Beach and walked the walk there. It was really a nice trip.
The people we stayed with in Canberra....the lady has a friend who works with the Koala Bears. I'm thinking she works or has something to do with Lone Pine, not sure. Shot an e-mail out to her to ask her. Would be really cool if she DOES work there and we can get "behind the scenes" tours.

Here it is morning again and I'm checkin'
only to see still no action!!!! Just what
is she waiting for???????

Kay, you poor thing---you're going to need
a week trip to a Spa if Patches ever gets
around to foaling! (Do they ever induce
horses?)

And, Terri, just think of the upper body
strength you will have after all that kayaking!
What a hoot! Take plenty of pictures....lol

Sharon B.--hope your son is feeling better, poor
baby (there always our babies even when they are
grown up)

We can only hope............ :roll:

Goodnight Terri!

No they rarely induce labor in mares as that usually ends in a foal death


That is Joanne in the stall we are finishing up clipping her for the show this weekend. She is looking great!

Ughh im so covered in sweat. Came in to cool off and take a break.

Thank you! I was beginning to wonder how the others could have possibly seen enough to BELIEVE! <g> Now, I know. And, of course, I went immediately to see if it would work for me - -and, it did. WOW! That is a heck of a nice device.
