Happy Birthday to our favorite purple flamingo!

What a surprise!
I didn't know that I had put my birthday info anywhere, here.
But I must say, that I'm glad I did!
 
:doublebeer:  I enjoyed a Saranac Ginger Pale Ale with my grilled London Broil and will now enjoy a little ice cream.....
So, thank you everyone, & I hope to someday meet some of you in person!

While reading through the fabulous trip reports everyone is doing, I started to notice that everyone always has pictures of sunsets.  Now, I know I've not done a trip report myself, so this will be my contribution.
Sunset photos from various places.
Please add yours!
 
First, Lewes, Delaware, on the canal.

Thanks everybody for a fun night!
I look forward to seeing more photos and videos of the epic fireworks tomorrow.....

Oh wow, well, you need to.
 
And for those already a fan of the movie, read the book, if you can find a copy.  Lots of backstory that the author left out of the movie. (He wrote the screenplay)

LOVE IT !

Well, let's see if this works.  (Most of my good pictures are on facebook, but last time I tried to do this it didn't work....)
 
Here's our new 4 man tent when it's just DH & me: at Little Pine State Park, PA

 
Then when the kids are with us, we use the 8 man (for all 4 for us, lol): at Cook Forest State Park, PA

Did you see?  Good Morning America & Ginger Zee got to ride the Mine Train (with her hands up, lol) and meet the Frozen sisters.  Funny....they didn't say or show how long the line was..... :)  They did mention May 28th, so I think that means we scooped GMA.

We stayed in tents on the hill a few years ago.  Yes, the trains roll on by.  But we heard just as much noise from the plant (mining operation?) that is just on the other side of the creek.  But, it's a great campground anyway.  Loved the shuttle to the park.  Have a great time.
We may try to get there again sometime.  
And some year get to the Gettysburg GG, too. :)

Oh yes, the Hipster.
I have it in Plum petals (I think that's what it's called.)  We have an outlet one exit up I-79 from my in-laws permanent camp, so we get there as often as we can.  Like the day before Memorial Day.  When everything in the store is 50% off of their outlet price.  This year I got the Little Flap Hipster in Portobello Road. (and there goes that song in my head again...)  That makes 5 purses a wallet and a couple of other misc items of Vera.....  Never pay retail price. Always outlet or at least from the website.  They have sales all the time online.
 
I love your pictures so far!   Although it looks like you could have probably used a 4th for riding.  I'll gladly stow away next time to join you!     

If you still have the old sets, you might be interested in this website that my DS discovered:
brickset.com
He opened an account and started marking how many sets he has. I think he said he stopped around 55......

Thanks for doing a super trip report!
Love all the lessons learned and wide variety of photos.
Your 2 DDs are super cute. :heartsmiley:
And finally, thanks for being music teachers. (From the mom of 2 band nerd kids-- trumpets and trombones rule!)
