Oh my gosh.....I WON:-) YAHOO, WOOHOO, YIPPY SKIPPY and it's about time!! (only kidding on the last one) If ya know me personally then you know this...I NEVER win nada, nothing, zilch, zero, etc...etc...I used to live in Lake Tahoe and maybe on occasion would try my hand at gambling..HAH...never won a jackpot!!! When my kids were young they attended Parochial schools and we constantly had fund raisers. I purchased more raffle tickets than anyone I know, mainly cause I did not want my kids bothering others when selling them. I also bought ALL the Girl Scout cookies so my daughter would not pester the neighbors..go figure!...I digress...... Point is I have never won a prize. Well, my day has ARRIVED....I won the "caption" quote contest from Lallees Cottage:) This little bee was a photo she snapped and asked us to offer a caption for him:) I think LALLEE should win a prize for the photo!!!! I offered this....."Float like a Butterfly, Sting Like a Bee"....can't take the credit...it is from the Greatest Boxer that ever lived, Muhammad Ali:-) Thanks so much Lallee....this is such fun:)
Hug Life
Peace,
Marylou

Marylou, so sorry about the email address! Let me give it to you correctly this time. I left an 'a' out. Good grief.

I'm so happy you won. I thought your captions was delightful and fit the picture just right. I'll look forward to hearing from you. Gonna run--having awful lightening storm!
Marylou, Yippee! Whoray! Yeah! Yahoo! Glad you won.. You are just the very best!! You sure have a way with words. I loved the caption.. yep I thought of Ali right away. Hope you are having a wonderful day :-} ~Mary~ aka Bella
PS I NEVER win anything too!
Hi Marylou... just stopped by to visit and had to read all through your blog. Your son and nephew are handsome! Congrats on the Captain Bee contest! Have a fabulous week!
Oh gosh ... meant to say I never win anything either! Though once I won a stuffed unicorn... come to think of it! Okay ... one thing!
Hi Marylou, I just found your blog through Lallee's and I've enjoyed visiting. I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area...it looks like you might also be??? Loved looking at your son's wedding pictures and knew they must be at a winery as I read further I saw they were indeed in Napa! I loved your story about the wine and sailing. I went out on sailboat a few years ago and watched the fireworks in SF Bay...wow, it was really wonderful. Also, I liked your wedding pics...you give me hope, I'm 46 and single and hope to get married again one day.
