POLL: the final step before ninth_wave reveals all!

This spider's surprising even herself. Like that web, do ya?

That sounds sooo wonderful Miss M. Even the rain.
Okay, I have a thing for rain too, moreso than snow.

Miss M. Be gentle with Ninth now

Right Ninth, another whack I'm never gentle...

Oh geez Miss S,

You must be spoiled by all that sun! A thing for rain & snow????????

You really HAVE to move to Chicago

It'll work out fine Taz, not to worry.

Absolutely Taz. Good luck!

Eh Miss M, Ninth may not want ya to be gentle.

Geez I am being a dreadful bore aren't I?
OK time for fun-loving Smart-A$$ Taz to come back.
Over-analyzing things is making Taz a boring puppy!
But thanks for the support all. I am not use to being in a quandry like this.

It's not all sunshine here. lol A decent amount of rain, snow and it's actually windier on average than Chicago (not that I'm crazy about that part).

I've been seriously considering going close to my girls. Desert. I don't know.

edit- We'd just choose a little different path to hook up on our way to Reno.

edit/edit- No Taz, you're not. There ya go, thinkin' again!

I live in the desert. (I'm so subtle)

It's where I grew up. I just don't like it there because it drains the life from you... I think it's the oil (seriously) or I'd already be back.

edit- Is there oil there? (talk about subtle lol)
edit/edit- Chicago would be taking me in the opposite direction from them.

Just kidding, Reno isn't really the desert, no oil either. Where in the desert are you from? You mean Texas? I lived in Austin, nothing but bugs and scorpions.

OK no-one has posted a joke for awhile!

"It was a May-December marriage, and as the old man climbed in to bed for the first time with his new bride, he asked, "Did your mother tell you what to do on your wedding night?"

"Yes," she cooed, kissing him lightly, "She told me everything."

"Good," said the elderly gentleman as he turned out the light, "because I've forgotten."

Edit: Having some horrible PC problems ! I think I may have picked up a virus or a trojan somewhere!
Gotta run a system scan before this piece of crap decides to go South on me!
Talk to you all later if I can get this fixed. Took me almost 15 minutes to get this post through.

When I lived in Arizona I got so sick of it. Sun & heat every day (the 2 things I love most), you could plan a picnic or something a year from now and know that the weather would be perfect. I grew up in Chgo and I really missed the changing seasons and weather, even if I don't like it. No one had lawns either, too expensive to irrigate. To this day I hate landscaping.

Guess I'll just stay here (Until the time comes to go to Reno, right Miss S?)

Taz will you once & for all stop with the mind reading

Taz.

I thought Reno would have trees. I don't know and am pretty dumb about geography, is it? lol
Yes, Texas... Permian Basin. Ohhh it smells soooo bad.

edit- OMG and scorpions, yes! And bugs. And rattlesnakes, though we have those here, just smaller.

Miss S,
How far are you from Dallas? (my geography stinks too)

Birds and rain (not like Oregon), that's what I want to see.

edit- I think it's about 10 hours or so from here. Haven't been in a really long time and don't remember. lol I'll go look it up.

Reno is not what you think of as desert, no cactus for example. It's the 'high desert', 4500 ft, with sagebrush. Reno is in the Truckee Meadows, with the Truckee River running through it (sounds like a movie with Brad Pitt) and LOTS of trees and very mild weather in comparison to other places. NO bad smells, either. Very clear air usually, surrounded by mountains.

That sounds so gorgeous Ninth. lol I love driving through the Guadalupe Mountains. Spent a lot of time as a kid in the Davis Mountains. That's desert, I guess like parts of New Mexico.
Those pics I posted are the Cimarron Canyon in NM on the way to Red River.

Miss M, to head to Reno, we'll want to meet out of TX somewhere I'm thinking.

edit- Isn't Dallas too far South? It's East for me anyway. I can't find a good map to see it all.
edit/edit- Where's Reno from Las Vegas? Dallas is way too South. Maybe meet up in Denver or thereabouts? That looks like a straighter shot.

Hey guys, we have 11,265 views!
I'll bet Auctiva has a surge of new members

Reno is about 300 miles north of Vegas, straight west from Denver.

Just went back and read Taz' edit. He might have a virus and is working on it.

1000 hits just since last night.
