  1. Now that we are confident of Grangers' return, I will start from where I stopped reading, at chapter 27. For the rest of you I have a suggestion or two to fill in the time. GA remains my favorite site(home). However two stories I have found may appeal to some of you fellow followers of our charming Captain. http://iomfats.org/storyshelf/hosted/solsticeman/a-royal-achievement/01.html http://www.castleroland.net/library/chapter/arthur/db/db_001 sandrewn (I hope you find them as enjoyable as I have)

  11. It is not very often I come across a picture that captures my heart as this one has. Plus I didn't know where to post it. Not that many members visit this thread, but I chose here because as long as I am a member of GA this thread will remain active and this picture will remain available to any who would like to see it. Two Happy(?) Owlets sandrewn
  12. I came across this and felt I had to warn glitteryantlers of a possible pretender to her throne. Though it doesn't really look like anything to be seriously worried about. But forewarned is to be forearmed and always ever vigilant. sandrewn (a loyal palace guard)
  13. Sorry, this last one just slipped in somehow. sandrewn (no disrespect to the President Elect was intended)

  17. Up until his flight my dream was to be a Mounty(R.C.M.P.). After watching him blast off into orbit in 1962 at the age of nine, becoming an astronaut was added as an either/or to my list of one. I just checked my dust covered stamp collection, not touched in forty plus years. My pair of unused Mercury (1962) 4 cent stamps are just as I remember them. He was the last of the Mercury 7. The first to go up in to orbit, the last of his peers to leave us. I think he was my first hero and he never let me down. http://www.space.com/34964-watch-john-glenn-s-historic-friendship-7-launch-video.html Rest In Peace, John Glenn "Fair Winds and Following Seas" Semper Fi sandrewn

  20. Every winter we all have to relearn how to drive on snow and ice. Montrealers are no exception. Sometimes though it is just a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Add black ice to the mix and presto. Watch both videos in the article that follows, I can so relate to what is happening to every one involved. http://globalnews.ca/news/3107028/montreal-winter-weather-pile-up-bus-car-police/?sf44927425=1 Been there, done that sandrewn (don't you just love winter)
  21. I wonder if digital cameras/phones will have the next generation scratching their heads with this one? sandrewn (caught in between)
  22. So my question to you is. Are the people who create these, extremely talented? Or just have nothing better to do with their time? sandrewn ( I voted for extremely talented)
