To the Beach

Back to work now, but was able to spend a lovely day at the beach last Friday. Got some sun, rode the carousel, and dined at Spice of Life...as Mimi put it...we were "Ladies Who Lunched". It was much fun!!!! Here's a few shots of the day. Sorry, but I didn't get any of the food shots, as I was so hungry. LOL!

Here's an article I found.
It reminded me of the Boobsie Twins who like to show off their cleavage.

WIFE BITES HUSBAND AT MUSIC FESTIVAL OVER CLEAVAGE CLICKING
Fri Jul 13, 2:00 AM

MERRITT, B.C. (CP) - Police bracing for trouble at the Merritt Mountain Music Festival got it even before the musicians took the stage.
RCMP say they responded to a reported domestic assault early Thursday morning. What they found was a man who said his wife had bitten him after becoming upset that he was taking pictures of women's cleavage at the festival. Both were unco-operative with police and both had been drinking. Police confiscated the camera, and found the following two photos, corroborating the wife's claim:

The women in the photos have not yet been identified, however, the RCMP indicate that they are wanted for questioning with respect to their role in contributing to the domestic assault.
RCMP issued a warning reminding people that video cameras, audio recorders and camera-equipped cell phones can be used to capture unauthorized images of anyone.

Police and highways officials have been gearing up for the annual music event, which draws thousands of country music fans to the small community in B.C.'s southern Interior.
In addition to the music, the heat-drenched festival often features a lot of partying and drinking and the RCMP are warning people about their zero-tolerance policy toward liquor violations.
Const. Annie Linteau says the police want people to have a good time, but they won't allow impaired driving, public drunkenness or open liquor, or excessive cleavage.

Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood, Creedence Clearwater Revisited and Tanya Tucker are among this year's performers at the festival.

Guess What? I took the quiz, and lo and behold, I AM ITALIAN.

Along with the above, part of being Italian means attending celebrations. In the past two weeks, I have attended one bridal shower, two high school graduations, a high school reunion, a going away party for a foreign exchange student, two birthday parties. In the next few months, there's a stag & doe, another birthday party or two, and two weddings. This really is not all that bad, as one year, there were 12 weddings to attend.

So I've not been able to be too attentive to maintaining posts on blogger. :(
