Buddy reunion in Maine

Hardy travelers
Gunter, Sanjay, and Margaret
Fly in from Frisco

*****

Tightly packed auto
Amy joins the tall trio
More groceries, too!

*****

Marie and Gene
Pick up Darcy in Boston
Wish Ryan could come!

*****

A long day's journey
Cozy home away from home
The Smith house in Maine

*****

Non-stop fun ensues
Kayaking and volleyball
Playing games at night

*****

Great charades player
Sanjay mimes "Willie Nelson"
Frighteningly well


*****

Beautiful beach day
Some bump around in the surf
Others play bocce

*****


Fueled by scrumptious fare
Maine seafood and Gourmet Treats
Freshly picked sweet fruit

*****

Small annoyances
Hungry bugs, soaked camera
Did not spoil the fun

*****

Snapped a few photos
Gunter's waffle, frisbee tricks
Click here to see them

Harry Haiku

I've finished at last!
Read the last bit during lunch
Wednesday afternoon

*****

My only problem
Too long since I read the books
Preceding this one

*****

Couldn't remember
What items in the book were
Had to look them up

*****

Enjoyed the story
Though the horcrux search was slow
And depressing, too

*****

Mustn't give away
The long-awaited ending
I found it fitting

*****

Harry must decide
Seek Hallows or Horcruxes
For the greater good

*****

Hermione shines
A skillful caster of spells
Keeps Harry grounded

*****

Ron, the everyman
The most human of the three
Good comic relief

*****

Friends and elves return
Ginny, Luna, and Neville
Dobby and Kreacher

*****

Love the beaded bag
Looks so small, yet holds so much
I wish I had one!

*****

One question I have
Harry can enter V's mind
But not vice versa?

Reading feverishly

Blog interrupted
Engrossed in HP7
About halfway through!

False alarm


Alarm bells ringing
I rush to leave my office
No danger is found

ExtraordinarWii

Marie says:
Wii-motes are waving
Had more fun tackling

Gene says:
Strikers ain't soccer
It is more like clobberball
Fun brutality
