They fly overhead when we're out on the bedroom deck at night. I'm thankful for them. Don't know if I'd want them in my chimney though... I guess their droppings aren't plentiful enough to bring an odor in your chimney.<br /><br />I think it's fantastic that your dad revived an old tradition! I think the derbies were pretty much fizzled out by the time I came along.<br /><br />The most experience I have with them is through the movies and old TV shows. The grands have been watching 'Our Gang' over and over. (the new one) Of course, their racers are a bit above the soapbox style!Lillian Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13488638666900705015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684449415664473404.post-4517632009893529062010-05-25T20:41:16.433-04:002010-05-25T20:41:16.433-04:00MY goodness,,,, you did have a busy weekend.... lo...MY goodness,,,, you did have a busy weekend.... love the photo of all the soap box cars,, how fun... good for your Dad to bring it back... have a great week,,, hope you find some time to relax.....<br /> Hugs;<br />AlauraCottage Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13232333807529818159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684449415664473404.post-52750528185917235522010-05-25T19:56:46.026-04:002010-05-25T19:56:46.026-04:00I don't know, just reading about your weekend ...I don't know, just reading about your weekend kinda made me tired! Getting dressed up, making conversation...it's all fun at the time, but it takes energy. Unless you're a natural extrovert, in which case you GAIN energy from being with other people. Looks like the wedding was beautiful, which is always a good thing.Nancy/BLissed-Out Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17223278142557533175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684449415664473404.post-60598238433441407262010-05-25T14:54:46.961-04:002010-05-25T14:54:46.961-04:00I think you accomplish an amazing amount, every da...I think you accomplish an amazing amount, every day. And that soap box derby sure looks like fun! I look forward to the pictures. There's nothing wrong with just lounging around with a book, but I'll bet you don't allow yourself to do that much! Have a great week, Nina! :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.com
