GR&DF how really wonderful you all are!!! I just read through the comments and am now all verklept!! Such sweet words about my own sadness. Dale has been a dear friend for more than 27 years and I am sure we will still stay in contact - phone , email, Blog..... He is moving back home, but once his life settles out and he finds his own place a visit to NC will certainly happen.... maybe next Fall when it is beautifully cool and lovely. BTW I remembered what he calls that iguana - Octavia - that was driving me crazy trying to recall the name!!

Not very much else going on. I will be away from the computer tomorrow so there will be no wrapping up the week post. I'll be back on Monday.
That's about it for today sports fans - thanks again for all the kind comments!! Do stop by again.
Take care,
edgar
Isn't it amazing how something can drive us absolutely bonkers until we can remember it? Just the other day I was trying to think of the name of a show and it drove my nuts because I couldn't think of it and I knew that I knew it well! It was "The Real McCoys" of all things!
ReplyDeleteHave a great Thursday!
I meant "me nuts" of course. Blushing now.
ReplyDeleteI just read about him moving home. He is the one you estate sale, right? Think of all the estate sales you two could do in NC, and that's not too far from that big yardsale in Kentucky. But I am sorry to see a friend move out of your daily circle. That's hard. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend - we'll miss you!
ReplyDeleteWhen my daughter was very little she was obsessed with a Sesame Street book all about the Count and his pet octopus Octavia. LOL!
ReplyDeleteSuch a shame for you and Rico that Dale is moving back to NC but as you say there's no need to lose touch with the internet and phone etc and I agree with Rachel S there will be lots of estate sales in NC for you to visit when you go to visit him!
ReplyDeleteOh that cake looks so yummy. Mmmmmmm And after all the snow shoveling I have been doing it sure would hit the spot. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
Octavia--lol! I know how that is for sure. I'm the personality that has a hard time letting those things slide. :D
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I know you will miss Dale - but at least with technology you'll be able to stay in close contact!
ReplyDeleteYour cake looks yummy!
Have a great weekend Edgar. The cake looks yummy!!! thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteOh that cake looks wonderful. Too bad we don't have scratch and sniff computers.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't forget SKYPE....feels like you're right there with them. Cake looks so YUMMY!
ReplyDeleteI had a friend in NC and I loved to visit with her. Out for breakfast and hunting around the antique markets etc. Special times. Hope you get down there and enjoy your special times to come. All the best to Dale on his move and don't be too sad.
ReplyDeleteThat cake looks yummy!
