I've done a lot of the same things too.

Although I haven't actually done #94 four times, I did do it virtually yesterday, 6 times. It was hard! ;)

Kristina, Kristina...you kill me! I just remembered I hitchhiked to a concert at Salt Aire when our car brokedown! Love the #94 deal. So glad you did it four times...especially the 4th (oh wait, maybe I should let you say that :)

I think that covered the tag. I think you should tell Bill to take care of number 63 for you.

Of course the pictures are great and the story very funny. i love your blog, dont get sick of looking at it. It makes me want to start one too but I know all my home work will be way behind. Actually it is already but I haven't a good excuse for that, like working on a great blog like yours. Who cares about laundry, home work and dinner when we have theese great pictures and stories anyway ;)
