What to do in the rain...

[kevorama]

I love big cats! Always wanted an Ocelot or a Geoffrey's Cat. Those are small compared to the big boys, but none the less, still wild. After my 14 yr. old orange (Morris the cat) tabby goes, I'm all in for a Maine Coon. That's the largest that I'll ever be able to get.

The reason that they went to Waffle House is because of the lard and grease. After you've handled any of the food there, you are already protected against water.

Raining here for days and we're just 3.5 hours away from Springfield towards STL. Flying out to (hopefully) sunny San Diego on Tuesday. My middle son graduates from the Marine Corp's. basic training next Friday. I'm a proud papa, for sure!

We're hoping for better weather next year. Like Bruiser said, it was 33° in Springfield today, and they actually got an inch of snow, as well. And it is May, people. This was just a freaky year all around for weather.
April is generally very nice here.

See you next year!

T.I.G.E.R.S. (The Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species) is located in Myrtle Beach. At the location at Barefoot Landing you can have your picture taken with a tiger cub or an ape. You can also do a tour of their 50 acre preserve located 17 miles south of Barefoot Landing but it's not cheap ($239.00 per person)!!! They have all kinds of critters at the preserve, including a liger - lion father and tiger mother. Check out their web site. Pretty cool!!!

Bass Pro

I didn't know the Waffle House sold gloves... :dontknow:

Recently on a program on TV, the Bass Pro Shop in Missouri was listed as the most popular tourist destination in the state. It must really be a nice one. We have one in Islamorida that I love to visit on rain days. They even have rocking chairs on the back porch overlooking the bay.

Fin, it's 333,000 sq.ft. and 4 stories. It's the world wide hq. for Bass Pro. I didn't get to spend as much time as I would have liked.

SDM, I have been to MB and have seen their shop at Barefoot. They do take very good care of their animals. I haven't been to the preserve. It is expensive.

I just strip down to my "skivies" and ride on. I always carry a bar of ivory soap with me for those occasions.:yikes:

Oh great! :gaah: My "mind's eye" needs poking out; AGAIN! :shocked: :roflblack:

If you are looking for waterproof gloves..... I got a pair of those Kitchen gloves.... put under them just a light glove and I was good to go. Carry them with me all the time. Of course I was able to find them in PURPLE:hun::yikes:. Took me a while, but I got them.
