A Long Way to Momma’s Mailbox

Saturday, February 4th 2006

“Why, hello Blog Friends. Momma said you might be stopping by.
She wanted me to show you our merry, merry long drimeway. ”

d1

“It starts up here where there is really no place to turn around. Those guys in the brown mans sure do get mad when they see that and then they get real scared when they see me running down the hill.”

d2

“Then it goes way, way down past my little girly there playing hide and seek by Momma’s car. I can’t go any further or the inmisible fence will zap me but you go ahead and I’ll tell you the rest from here.”

d3

“Keep going up the hill. This is where Momma’s car gets stuck in the snow. She sure does cuss a lot when that happens. I could tell you some of the cuss words but she said she’s wash my mouth out with soap if she emer caught me saying them again. Lil don’t like soap.”

d4

“Keep going…”

d5

“This here is what the girly-girls call the Circle of Life. They climb up there on the rocks and pretend to be Simba from the Lion King. This rock formation sits on the right side of the drimeway if you are leaming the house.”

“This is also where we hame our drimeway alarm – otherwise known as the “Dun-dun-du-dun”. When a car drimes past it, it sounds off in the house so me and Kasey can bark our fool heads off. Momma sure does lome when we do that.”

d6

“Here is where the drimeway meets the road. This is where the mailbox is and where Momma walks the girly-girls out emery morning in her pajamas to get on that big yellow truck. I always yell out Momma! Momma! Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma!!!! Come back!…”

d

“…and she usually does.”

“Thanks for coming omer to misit with us in Petromille. My Momma always says what nice people you are. Now if you could just do me a famor and come a little closer, I’d like to sniff your primates and gime you a big kiss.”

You love me.  You really love me.

  • :giggle: well, then, I’M not coming any closer!


  • After I read this post I told Tim that I wanted a driveway alarm system, too. And since he loves tinkering with anything that’s electronic, maybe I’ll get one. It would be nice, when I’m home alone, to get a little warning before the doorbell rings.


  • I didn’ think you were ever going to get to the end of that road. Do you plow that?


  • How pretty! I bet it looks awesome in the spring.


  • :rofl:

    Why was I visualizing Lil talking? I love the Circle of Life Rocks – I do remember the girls calling them that. Maybe next time Lil can take us for a walk down by the creek (it’s actually very interesting BEFORE bug season) or up in the snarled sticker bushes!


  • Who needs a gym when you have that driveway to walk every morning? I want the alarm thingy, too!


  • Thanks, Lil, but I already had lunch.

    (Momma: So where is the airport runway? Other side of the house?)


  • Sherry

    Lil’s tounge looks like an arrow for Valentine’s day!


  • Lil is such a beauty! I’d give let her kiss me! Bring her on. I’m so jealous. Your property looks gorgeous.


  • you live in the middle of nowhere!!!
    i hope you don’t get snow and if you do, i hope you have your own plow.


  • that looks just like what we have to drive around to get to my in-laws’ house in the NC hills. where do you live again?


  • Ohhh, it’s pretty and quiet and private. I love it.


  • Wow thanks for sharing!!!! Lomely pictures, mery cool. And thanks emer so much for the smooch!!! XX


  • I have to admit, I’m envious. I love your driveway. Mine can barely fit two cars. And now the garage is off limits to them because of a certain husband who shall remain nameless….


  • Response from Michele’s cat:

    Pshaw. That is nothing. My driveway is over one hundred miles long. I sit at the window and watch lots of cars and stare at the pretty yellow and white lines and…..oh wait, that is not a driveway it is the street that Michele lives on. Nevermind.

    Your driveway is long! And there seems to be lots of beautiful trees to climb. Lovely. It really is the cat’s meow….oh wait, no that is me.

    Now I am going back to cat-related activities. Don’t you bark at me. I said…..hissssss.


  • WHat a relaxing, lovely sight to see every day, MommaK! LUCKY WOMAN! (beats the burbs any ole’ day!)


  • Lil, ask your mom about speech therapy. It sounds like you’re having some sinus trouble, it could be from that bigass tongue you try to keep in your mouth, but I’d ask the doc just to be sure.

    Nice yard ya got there! Talk about long windy roads. For a driveway though? Sheeesh!


  • “sniff your primates”
    *giggle*
    :rofl:


  • Lil has a unique perspective, eh? Thanks for leaving out the butt-sniffing and tree marking.


  • aweee I love Doggy kisses…I think mine are gonna be jealous though..lol

    Thanks for taking us on a lil tour ..that is some driveway you have there ..I am so jealous.I would love to live in the woods. :yahoo:


  • You really are in the woods! Do you have skis for your car? Or 4WD?

    Very nice of Lil to give us the tour! :cool:


  • Your driveway is about as long as Pecan Lane here. Only MUCH hillier!


  • I hate you and your beautiful driveway and your lovely trees and your not a glimpse of a stupid neighbor in site! Looks like you have plenty of room for ME to put a house there!

    *goes to window to pout and stare at stupid neighbors*


  • Raggedy

    :wave: 2-05-06 FTS sent me. Wow that is a very long driveway. Hope you don’t have to shovel it. Thank you for the post.


  • You want to sniff my monkey? Well hot damn!!! :giggle:


  • Okay, now I know why you guys won’t move next door to me.

    That’s okay. I’ll move next door to you.

    Where’s the party? No one’s here?


  • WOW! what an awesome Driveway! I would love to be out in the woods like that.

    Take care


  • Good lord, that is the longest driveway ever. Thanks for the great description Lil, now c’mon over and give me a kiss.


  • Funny post and great pictures. Lil is awesome! Clyde and April would love her. Or be terrified of her, I’m not sure which. I’m glad you have a driveway alarm AND a huge dog.



  • Talk to me, Goose.
