My trip to "Mt Rainier" and BB Eviction

Well, the news is Chima has been evicted by the PRODUCERS! Hey, couldn't happen to a more annoying immature person. I am dying to hear what house rules she broke to get herself kicked.


AND I was delighted to see Jessie the narcissist go home finally!


In other news, my trip to Mt Rainier: Ah yes, well that was the most misrepresented thing in recent memory. Kind of like Sarah Palin. All talk and no substance.



This was billed as a train ride to Mt Rainier. What it was? A BUS ride to the small town of Mineral, before you ever get to Mt Rainier. Then a ride on a very old clunker of a train going 15 mph and a Bar BQ. Uh huh. The train went into the woods by trees and more trees and a stream appeared now and then, and then it went backward to where we started. Never got within shouting distance of Mt Rainier. Never saw it. There was total cloud cover so not a chance of seeing it anyway but we didn't go to Paradise or Sunset or anywhere on the mountain. I have been there many times, camping, hiking and just driving around and there are gorgeous vistas and lakes to be seen. I was truly looking forward to a "train ride to Mt Rainier."





Well, everyone I talked to was heartily disappointed and felt, as I did, that our day could have been better spent. We were supposed to be home by 7:30pm but we were home after 9:30pm exhausted. It seems no allowance was made for loading and unloading 80 or so seniors with various disabilities, 8 walkers and one wheel chair and an oxygen tank on wheels (I counted them). See photo.




We did stop at a small church in Elbe with a nice history. A wedding had just happened and all were coming out of the church.




We did see some pretty trees.

I swear I am just not THAT old. I feel I don't belong in this crowd. Not yet and hopefully never. I did meet a nice lady who went with me to the first outing to Frost/Nixon play at the Paramount which I truly enjoyed. We decided we would go today to the Taste of Edmonds. But she called this morning and said she was not prepared to leave her apt, still recovering from yesterday. I am determined to do something fun today.

When I spent the day with Lucy, Max and Joe a couple days ago Lucy was so delighted I was there and wants ALL my attention ALL the time. She is such a poser and is so fun to watch and play with. I just adore her. Max was cooing and laughing and reaching out to grasp things.











Joe was out playing with his friends most of the time. Here he is making cookies with Momikins.

One of my favorite summer shows, So You Think You Can Dance ended last night and Janine won. It was between Janine and Brandon and I was hoping for Brandon, he is soooo gorgeous, what a body, but Janine deserved to win too, a great dancer, as were both. So what now, only Big Brother 11 which is fascinating to watch the interaction between these people. One girl is so weird, she is covered with tattoos and is Latina but has bleached blonde hair, black eyes and wore a mask like think over her eyes, with her eyes shining out of eye holes. Very weird. There are only two or three people I care about at all.

I find myself looking forward to the fall shows coming up.
