I was going to build an "annex" behind the house - decided to wait 'til the economy improves, if I'm not overtaken with old age....<br /><br />Katt - I know you're a pet lover, I'm more of a 'pet liker', better when the pet is owned by someone other than me. Honestly, I've got the whole OCD thing goin' on, & dog & cat hair makes my eyes itch & water - meaning our cat Nubber has limits on where he can hang out. He's a good old boy (16) & will no doubt live another 20 years just to spite me.David Ebrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037059701518103541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860392162017699273.post-46462202762691958412009-12-19T21:42:32.200-05:002009-12-19T21:42:32.200-05:00Dave, I'm just now reading this!

Someday... <br />I, too, have visited Hemingway's home in Key West. Jacked after reading "Indian Camp," I was looking forward to it. The cats kinda freaked me out.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474579865656349848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860392162017699273.post-83721735876533051402009-12-02T22:58:06.268-05:002009-12-02T22:58:06.268-05:00The pics showed up.

There will be markers noting the dates when certain orange trees were planted. Nubber the cat will be stuffed & gently placed on the laundry room windowsill. The writing room will feature the great literature created by my blogging friends. Visitors will raise their hands & question the reason behind 3 distinctly different writing chairs. The tour guide will explain the back troubles going nto great detail about L4 & L5....<br /><br />Joylene - We've got Hemingway beat by a mile. For starters - he's dead, we're not. I liked his books but his titles were a bit overdone. "Farewell To Arms" - I mean, that sounds like the story of a farm equipment tragedy to me. But hey, what do I know. 44 six toed cats - That's 1056 toes & a whole lotta you know what.David Ebrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037059701518103541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860392162017699273.post-85930281255863331212009-11-18T10:03:36.597-05:002009-11-18T10:03:36.597-05:00the pics look interesting.

They'll probably never know that my favourite writing spots are on the couch or out on the deck, and they'll be manufacturing stories about our pristine desks. Hah!!Carol J.

The formatting on Blogger is tough when you're including lots of pictures. Cuts off words w/o hyphenating etc. Makes ya look illiterate. Not good for a writer's blog. <br /><br />I was psyched about Hemingway's house - it was a cool adventure. I panned it a little 'cause the guide was such a grubby little dork & the cat "aroma" was annoying. Still glad I got to visit. <br /><br />Speaking of driving - It wasn't a well-planned trip. Delray to St Augustine (Friday PM) back to Delray (Saturday AM) then south to Key West & back to Delray (all on Sunday). That's almost 1000 miles of driving, while, in between, taking care of chores @ home & checking out the sights in a 48 hour period. Even the bank put a "hold" one of my cards because of the ground being covered in that timeframe. They thought it looked suspicious. Only a NUT would travel like that. Right? Hah! It Was Way Too Much!!! I ain't gettin' any younger.David Ebrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037059701518103541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860392162017699273.post-89289786626887561082009-11-16T21:33:50.834-05:002009-11-16T21:33:50.834-05:00I definitely need help; not all your pics are visi...I definitely need help; not all your pics are visible to me. What is that about? Weird, eh? I asked for help with this and other problems, but as soon as I mentioned I live an hour away, nobody was interested in driving out here. <br /><br />Glad you got to see the house tho. I'd have been psyched.Joylene Nowell Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04497637513532136615noreply@blogger.com
