Celebration Moments

Chief Ladiga Trail

This is part of a 100 mile rail trail that runs from Anniston, Alabama to Smyrna, Georgia.

We picked the trail up in Piedmont, AL and road east to the Georgia state line. The trailhead at Piedmont is at the Eubanks Welcome Center. You can park here I a nice large lot. You can get trail and state maps inside the Welcome Center. We also picked up a couple of sorvener shirts - they also sell hats. The trail was paved the entire section that we rode with the scenery changing at every turn. It's an uphill ride leaving Piedmont and then mostly downhill heading back. We highly recommend a ride on this well done rail trail.

Good Start To The Day

After breakfast we packed up and moved to a much nicer site. I'll share some pics of the campground later. The Three Black Labs are all settled and we are off. Headed to the Eubanks Welcome Center to start our bike ride on the Chief Ladiga Rail Trail. I've loaded a bunch of caches into my GPS to find along the way. Almost to Piedmont. Gotta run.

Traveling With The Three Black Labs

First, I have to say how much I love technology!! I'm creating this blog entry away from my desk in my office - while we are driving down the road with my IPhone. Way too cool!! It's probably not cool to use the word "cool" but what the hey it's cool!

This all is probably just for my own amusement except for the few family members that might be following me.

Lex (our RV), Stella (our GPS) and the Three Black Labs are with Tom and me and we are all headed to Alabama. This will be our first time in Alabama.

I'll be updating our whereabouts on Twitter. If you Twitter you can follow us - our Twitter name is Three Black Labs. If you don't Twitter just checkout the right sidebar on this blog (scroll down a bit) and our Twitter updates will be there.

Going to run. The road is extemely bumpy and it's making it very difficult to type on this tiny key pad.

Catch you later.....

This is a scanned image of the Frame from a recent Workshop. If you are assembling this from home you can click on the photo and it will enlarge for a closer look.  Please feel free to call me with any questions. 

 

Some pointers: (remove the clear film from photo section while working on the frame)

1.  Pierce the yellow flower and one peach flower with a piercing tool. 

2.  One peach flower has a vellum flower, a glitter center and a clear bead.  The other peach flower has a peach punched flower center, a yellow punched flower, clear shiny tiny flower and a bead

3.  The chocolate flower is glued onto the chipboard flower with a glue stick.  The inside of the yellow flower petals are glued onto the chocolate flower and then the beaded center is glued on.

4.  What's on 3D foam squares: two glitter birds, blessed tag, all the flowers and the butterfly.

5.  All papers are glued to the frame with a glue stick and then carefully rubbed with a bone folder.

Adam Lambert American Idol, Mad World, ITune Downloads - Who Knew!!!

I have a link to ITunes on my left sidebar and didn't realize you could download videos from current American Idol Shows.  My DRV didn't tape Adam Lambert singing Mad World the other night on American Idol - I was so mad - searched all over the internet that night trying to find it out what song Adam had sung.  Finally found the Adam Lambert Mad World Video the next day - wow was it fantastic!!

Well - I clicked on my own link tonight and downloaded the video to my ITunes.  It's loading right now - as I'm typing this.  Tomorrow I'll get it on my IPhone then I can play it on the TV - it will be like I never missed it.  So Fun!!!!!  Just had to share!!  OK - I just watched it - he is REALLY GOOD!!

Belize, Vacation Package, Ebay Auction, Chan Chich Jungle Lodge, Ecotourism

My dear hubby and I won this trip on an auction we bid on and paid $817.00 for it.  We are not able to go - we'll be traveling in our RV with our Three Black Labs instead.  I just wanted to put this out there for everyone to see just incase you wanted an opportunity to take an incredible trip at a great price. 

Just click here  to see how beautiful the Chan Chich Jungle Lodge is in Belize, Central America.  If you have any questions let me know.  This auction will run until Sunday evening until approximately 8:30 PM.  I have the starting bid set at a no reserve of $100.00.  That means if no one bids on it there is a chance it could go for just $100.  All the details are listed on the Ebay Auction page.

       

Supply List Is Posted & Updated - Left Sidebar - Classes!

I have glue sticks and 3D foam squares on the "for sale" table.  Also, if you don't have some of the tools I also have those.  Bringing your own tools just makes it for less to share but not to worry - please DO NOT go out and buy tools for crafting.  Please call or email with any questions. 

Looking forward to helping everyone create this very "Blingy - Springy" Frame.
