I've been thinking about Tuscany...that is a topic for another post, but Rob doesn't think I'd move that far from my family. If I moved to Cape Town, my sister would probably want to come with us. We think Dema was stung by a jellyfish today and he dealt with it quite well...he has surfing in his blood. :-)VeganLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07265250979613207539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-5678595284460498862008-08-01T14:12:00.000-05:002008-08-01T14:12:00.000-05:00lol! my comment is forever long! seriously, we ne...lol! my comment is forever long! seriously, we need to get together when you get back in town. we're clearly long overdue for some good conversations! :)Lorettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04408300840672725188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-67050365963139470432008-08-01T14:10:00.000-05:002008-08-01T14:10:00.000-05:00You might just want to chalk the difference in pro...You might just want to chalk the difference in pronunciation up to it being a southern thing?? The town I grew up in is spelled Staunton, but it's pronounced "Stan-ton." Apparently, during the Civil War, any yankee spies traveling south on the railway were dead giveaways when they tried pronouncing it. I could give you a hundred other mis(or, "different")pronunciations I've heard over the course of my life... :) <BR/><BR/>I hear your love of the ocean/beach, I miss the beach so much. I am definitely a beach gal. I think I posted about this a bit ago when the kids and I were there with my family. I really want to live closer to the ocean, David is a mountain lover. We both agree that if San Diego weren't so darn far away (or so darn expensive!!) it would be a great place to live. That, or Cape Town. Yeah, I'd move to Cape Town in a heartbeat, too. Beautiful mountains, beautiful beaches, beautiful countryside, beautiful people. Too bad that it's halfway across the world. Although, that would solve the in-law problem... ;) <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I *totally* see Dema becoming a surfer. That would totally fit his personality! :)Lorettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04408300840672725188noreply@blogger.com
