The long holiday weekend is looming, so what's everybody going to be doing?
Will you be taking your bullies on a trip or just hanging at home?

I don't have big plans except for catching up on sleep!:babysleep: . It's been a really long and tiresome work week for me.
Saturday though, a friend and I will be taking a day trip to the nearby mountain town of Wrightwood, about 50 miles from where I live. They have an annual Memorial Weekend "garage sale", where the whole town sells their stuff! I can't wait to see what "treasures" (or junk) I come home with!:sarcastic:

We happen to have a 4 day weekend!!! :2thumbs:, No real plans, just working around the house, doing some more landscaping and tomorrow having an electrician come over to add another ceiling fan in my living room. Monday probably spend it in the pool and have a little cook-out. I would LOVE to go to that garage sale with you, I love going, I have found many treasures. Joe and I both got in to it a couple of months ago. We have scored on some very cool artwork for cheap.

i think that's what i'm going to look out for--some wall art, and of course, anything bulldog related! :)

We are going to have just awful weather this weekend ( it is 34f) right now, Fri. morning) so we will probably work on a couple inside projects... One is to remove the carpeting in this room.... Amelia has made us decide we need to remove the carpetting now, and refinish the hardwood floor once she is done using it for a piddle place ;)

Actually, we have talked about doing this for years. I UNcarpetted our bedroom a few years ago and have been procrastinating on the rest of the house ever since. Amelia now has given us a reason to return to that project. This 60 year old house has wonderful hardwood under all the carpeting. :)

@Ftse 100, Memorial Day is this coming Monday (5/27). It's a day when the U.S. remembers those who served for our country and have passed on. It's also thought of as the unofficial start of summer here, though weather-wise in So Cal, it's been very mild and a little too cold for my taste! (mid 70's farenheit). I want the heat! :roasted:

It's the opening weekend for swimming pools and parades and ceremonies to remember fallen veterans. The beginning of summer too supposedly, we are 10 to 15 degrees F behind schedule especially this weekend, def not pool weather. 40's at night and 60's during daytime also raining, it's a staycation for us

We're at the lake in Pueblo West. Today we're just chilling at the campsite which was a good idea because it's pretty windy out right now and the lake is quite choppy. I love just hanging out.....so much more relaxing. Tonight we're going to our favorite local Mexican restaurant place for dinner. Tomorrow bbq'n some hamburgers, making some guacamole and Sunday we'll have bbq'd chicken and corn on the cob roasted on the bbq too. :drool:

Cold here too, Bruce. I think we won't be doing a lot outside this weekend.
