MAMMOTH LAKES

These are the photos that were taken on the trip to Mammoth Lakes, CA when Mark, Adam and James went for 3 night starting on August 8th. They had a wonderful time and I'm so happy for them. 








They didn't catch any fish.











James can't wait to go back.

WEDNESDAY HODGEPODGE #666


Thank you Joyce.

1. I saw a meme on Instagram that went like this-'The movie Dirty Dancing came out in 1987 and was set in 1963, so if remade in 2026 it would be set in 2002. Now I need a little lie down in a dark room for a while." 

Time is crazy isn't it? So...what were you up to in the year 2002? 

I love that movie. 

This is a tough one for me to answer. I know we were living in our other house in Fontana, CA. Adam would have been 23 and Amber was 21. Mark was still working. I'm not sure what I was up to. I might have been working part time at the Hallmark store at that time. 

2. "Me? I'm scared of everything..." What's something that scares you that you'd like to try anyway? 

Gosh, this is a hard one to answer. I think I might want to go up in a hot air balloon, or maybe try a parachute. I never will, that much I know for sure. 

3. Watermelon-yay or nay? Which melon is your favorite-watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew. Of the watermelon food/beverages listed which would you say yes to...

watermelon salsa~watermelon feta salad~watermelon sorbet~
a watermelon Jolly Rancher~a watermelon margarita 

Yes I like watermelon and cantaloupe. I definitely like a watermelon Jolly Rancher but haven't had one in years. I wouldn't mind trying a watermelon margarita.

4. August 12th is National Middle Child Day. Are you a middle child? If not, where do you fall in the birth order in your family of origin? Do you think this has influenced your personality? Elaborate. 

No I am not a middle child. My brother was the first born, my sister was the second born and I was the last one born. It probably had an influence, I'm sure I was spoiled. 

5. Would you rather talk to everyone at a crowded party for a short time, or have a significant conversation with two people? Explain. 

Interesting question. We seldom, if ever, go to parties so I'm really not sure how to answer this one. Maybe I would try to talk to everyone. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

Mark, Adam and James drove up to Mammoth Lakes on Saturday. When you read this they will already be home. Short trip. They stayed in a hotel the first night and then 2 nights in a camper at a campground. 

We used to rent a cabin in Mammoth Lakes for about 18 years. Adam and Amber would come with us until they got older. We haven't been up in a long time because we are not sure if I can handle the elevation with my COPD. When I get more pictures I will share them. 

Saturday....left for Mammoth Lakes

James brought me this picture before they left on the trip. It's the lake with them fishing from a boat and up to the left is a cabin.

(I am having a procedure today at a surgery center for my sciatica so I may not be around to read posts)
