I agree, it would be awesome! But NOT in February, when there are three hours of light in a day, and it averages -40....gad. I can't even imagine going outside for my mail, let alone flying along on a dogsled, in this kind of winter. We hope to head up there this summer and we'll have them take us out. Michelle and Ed live in Tagish, which is a community in the bush, about 100 miles from Whitehorse. They have seventy to eighty dogs on their property, all with their own dog houses. It's quite something!

I totally agree about waiting till summer--3 hours of light and such extreme cold

Sounds like an awsome property, though.

[dlp252]

I think you've convinced me to wait til summer! Burrr!!! I start complaining when the temps reach the 30s here.

I hope you're writin' a book, Susie . . . 'cause you got some splainin' to do. . .

How's Mr. Bass? We know he didn't come down with the stomach flu . . .

OH MY SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just spent ONE HOUR reading, w/ many quotes and posts to address, started writing, they are ALL GONE NOW................ <insert angry face>

I tried and TRIED to invoke the powers of this elusive so-called magic triangle............

alas, Susie is too dingo-brained and stricken w/ delirium to be angry over the failings of the triangle and the lost words and thoughts.

GOOD GAWD??????????? Where to start?

AMANDA - congrats on baby Lydia!!!!!!! And your Wegman's shoot - you are FAMOUS!!!!! You WILL post the link, right?

Tom - - ABSINTHE????????????????????? OMG - how IS it? does it taste normal and real? Susie is pleased.........

Bev - I was NOT licked to death by Chinese Crested dogs......and I was also in T-R-O-U-B-L-E and also am T-R-O-U-B-L-E itself, as Nicola mentioned.

I have NOT been with that Dastardly Dave (was taht his name? ) of the Yukon quest....insofar as I know...I was NOT overcome by large pointy-eared dogs w/ black noses (only at Dog Park on Saturday).......but there WAS a David here..........

OMG Janet that "lost cat" - - - sure as hell was the chubacabra, was it not?????

Bev - LIttle Britain - GOOD GAWD!!!!!!!! What in hell IS that show?

ALEX - so glad you're better!

EMILY!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!! what is the LATEST w/ MIchelle? does it end today? GOOD LORD!!!!!!!!!!! a silly relative in third? <Susie is delirious and can't completely follow> but OUT OF MY MIND taht Will is emailing friends of the sillies' avid interest <and somefin' >

Patti, how is Allo?

Still no sign of Sarah?

what else? oh I forgot everything else......

OMG - thread-shattering news of my weekend???????????

WOULDN"T YOU LIKE TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It did NOT involve finding nuggets or caramels in the trash....it did NOT involve inheriting the cabin or getting a brand new Toyota ForeRunner......it did NOT involve laying hardwood <oh gawd stop me before I go any further with that> It did NOT involve the flower mart......

It DID involve major sleep deprivation, laughter, romping w/ Annie in various spots, movies, shopping, talking, reading, music, cooking, laughing, smooching, more talking, laughing, walking in the gentle spring sun, wine, flowers, chocolate.......and it DID end up being about the most fun weekend that I"ve had in my...........whole life. [but gitcher minds out of the gutter, peeps, because it was wholesome and proper also, just so you understand - Susie has to take her time wif things, you know, and wasn't just SHAGGING all weekend )

Sillies.......I"m not making any major announcements at this time but........let's just say this - - Susie is not going to have as much time for the silly thread any more and...........also this

<------ 'tis a hint

And now I must catch up with real life.

What in hell did I miss w/ the avs? Saw Janet's BRILLIANT Bev-picking av.....missed something about Angus in Winehouse's hair? oh - - this I MUST see............

LOVE YOU SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any Pets? . . . if yes, then follow-up with . . . what kind? name(s)?

Does he like musicals?

Is he going to install hardwood flooring for you?

Susie, this is how I feel about it----------->

Ask you shall receive, or is it if you build it He will come??

Do you suppose it was the pilgramages to the sacred rivers of wee that brought this forth??

[Mtndog]

Congratulations Auntie Amanda!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG- I wrote that 2 hours ago....just getting back to the computer know. Holy s*$t!

Ooh--Bev's in rare form tonight!

:lol:

Susie snogging with sexy sailors, sounds like a tongue twister

Methinks Susie ran off on holiday with Jude Law, or to the Hamptons to that beach house....some kind of adventure.

Nuggets could also be involved Beverly said "skank"

I must admit I have made several trips to the Yukon Quest website.

Look what you started Emily, we are obsessed with all things mush, mushers, mushing!

OMG- I think you might be onto something. What if it's Jude Law AND his nuggets!! Or...could Susie have gone to the Yukon to pet the pups!!!!!!!!!!!

I want the puppies!!!!!!! When Kurt and I went to Denali in 2001, we hung out with their sled dogs who had just had puppies- I wanted them ALL!!!!!!!

I taught Angus to push last winter....Open Original Shared Link

New Av . . .

If it wasn't for the freaking frigid temps, I think Susie would move to the Yukon for the dogs!!

Woof woof!!!!!!!!

Emily I didn't know that Michelle is your DH's SIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!VERY COOL!

[Mtndog]

I hope you're writin' a book, Susie . . . 'cause you got some splainin' to do. . .

How's Mr. Bass? We know he didn't come down with the stomach flu . . .

See...I told you it was 2 hours to post that from start to finish!

Ahem...methinks the Dingy doth protest too much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:P :P :P :P

It was CLEARLY George Clooney's hardwood at her house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Patti gave permission ONLY because she, like myself, can be objective about Senor Clooney. We FORGOT that Susie can't!!!!!!!!

[blueeyedmanda]

We understand you leaving our Silly Vortex, but always remember we will be there with you everywhere! Details please.

[jerseyangel]

What if it's Jude Law AND his nuggets!!

[Green12]

I forgot to say congrats Auntie Amanda, I being an Auntie!

What if it's Jude Law AND his nuggets!!

Jude Law's Nuggets, now that's quite a twist in the scenario and quite a lovely vision in my mind

Brings a whole new meaning to Nugget obsession, if you know what I mean

I want a husky pup too!!! I would totally take him skijorking

Angus is quite the talented fella.

It was CLEARLY George Clooney's hardwood at her house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will never look at hardwood floors, and the laying of them, the same again

Gadzooks! I just about snorted Tootsie roll out my nose

Patti, you said gadzooks

That sounds painful, are you ok?
