: : You'll get no argument from Mama Marcia...Eric's been MY hero since Gathering Number 1, when he single-handedly pulled, pushed, shoved, cajoled and wheedled me into making it all the way to the top of Table Rock! I will never forget my astonishment and joy at finding myself on that lovely spot! And I owe it all to my "Adopted White Son," Eric! The only thing more emotional for me was being at that same spot THIS year to watch Eric propose to Sharon. *sigh* What a memory!!

: : PS...I'm not sure how this thread got buried under the Big Earring Switch topic...???...Maybe we should start over at the top of the page with some more Gathering stories. I could use a few to brighten my day. It's been a tad rainy & gloomy here, and I'm now paranoid about lightening, doncha know.

: Marcia,

: Paranoid about lightening? Paranoid about LIGHTENING? I started chuckling to myself. Pictured you with a streak of white hair down the middle of your head - like the guy in The Great Outdoors (John Candy and What's his name, remember?) who
: was struck by lightening 66 times!! Next I suppose you will be telling us the story about the gator with the bald streak on the top of his rough head, eh?

Hey MMMM!!

Wasn't that the 'gator we saw up at Kennedy Space Centre??!! We WONDERED how he got that 'white streak'!! Quite frankly, we weren't convinced it was 'natural' (well, 'colour in a box' is used by just about everyone and everyTHING these days!!!) We never even THOUGHT about it being the result of a lightning strike!!

Sheesh - you are SO SMART, Bill!! *shaking head wonderously at extend of Bill's knowledge ...*
