Stay tuned

Todd and Cheryl planned a trip today for us to find "The Cave". It was a good ride, not too cold. Todd and Cheryl are football fans and they sacrificed watching the game to spend time with us. Somebody in the group felt sorry for them and found them a TV in the woods so they could watch the game.

The Grangers were there to see us off on our adventure. Before they left they tried to have alittle adventure for themselves, but the jeep got tippy on her side and that was the end of that!

Our jeeps are lined up and ready and ready to roll. They range from a 69 to a 90 model.

We finally found the cave and the ones that were smart enough to stay above the water posed for a pic, Tammy, Ruby, Kim, Todd, Cheryl and Paul.

I am not sure what started this argument but I'm certain it did not end well!

Paul knocked Todd out, then........

Todd knocked Paul out and............

Lost Again

WTF?

There are times when your friends should take control. A good example would be me (Janice) saying, "let's go this way, I think it goes to such and such road, I know because I marked it on my GPS". That is the perfect time for my friends to step in and say "NO"! But they were acting like it was my birthday or something today, treating me real special and letting me have my way, so off we went.

This is Debra and Tammy after we were rescued, they were looking at the woods that we had just walked with disbelief on their faces.

Deb, Tammy and I began walking behind the Tin Shed which is in the middle of f-ing nowhere to begin with. A bear has been scratching the posts that hold the old structure up. Between us and our destination are many obstacles, hunters(with guns), snakes, bear, swamp, heavy brush and hundreds of acres of forest but we were determined. I forgot, who's idea was this? Did I mention the thorns, I am still bleeding from this expedition.

This is my side of the jeep, the floor is about under water on our rescue trip out of the woods.

We called Dale and Mark once we got to the point that we could no longer wade thru the dark, murky water. We honestly could not see more than 5 feet ahead in the woods. The briers and bushes were so thick, we just hung our heads and barrelled thru like cows until the vines completely stopped us, it was a war of wills but the woods won. This is Mark and Dale trying to get us out, Mark is like, "are you kidding me?"

Deb and Tammy are riding in the back of our Jeep on the way out, just look where we were walking, is that the road or the damn river?

Mark and Joe were waiting for us, Mark lost his muffler on the rock he hit in the middle of the road/river. We had previously warned him.

Somebody got some parts wet or either the Indians are coming, cause I see smoke.

Joe was rushing us on the way home. Joe, you are invading my personal space, could you please back up alittle?....damn!

As usual, we park, everybody is safe and sound and we build a fire, god knows where, but we are warm.

You can always count on Ben to add alittle excitement to the night, first he tried to run over us then he wanted to load his truck on Duck's trailer.

Then Mark's trailer. Didn't fit. One more Friday Night In Dixie, time to have some fun.......................

We had a full weekend with Halloween parties, recuperating, trick or treating etc. Sarah spent the night with Uncle Merritt and Aunt Monica Friday night, we had Tripp Sat night. Sunday was a beautiful day and we rode down to the Aucilla River around 5:00pm. The sunset was beautiful as we were leaving and I really wished that it was Sat not Sunday.
Sunday evening leaving the Aucilla River. It was a beautiful sunset.





















A witch in the woods



Riding the broom





Tripp, Sarah and Hannah







Hannah the Pirate is soooo pretty, are you kidding me? This is not how we looked at nine.
















I love this picture because everybody looks so happy. Sarah and Uncle Merritt are messing with each other as usual. Hannah was giving her daddy a hard time about not scaring a friend of hers that lived nearby












Sarah was supposed to be a unicorn but finally decided she wanted to be something scary. She might think she is scary but she is absolutely beautiful to me.















"The Girls" Hannah had two little followers all night long, Sarah and Holly. Holly is a cutie-pie by the way. Her brother is too, but he did not want much to do with us since he doesn't know us too well, he is alittle shy.













This guy was so funny, this is the best costume I have seen in a long, long time. Thanks for making us laugh.














Hannah, Holly and Sarah
















Hannah really wanted to teach Uncle Dale how to use this modified skateboard, it is tricky. She is looking alittle bored with his progress.















still hanging on to the mailbox, hey Uncle Dale, you gotta let go at some point!

The Gerrell's annual Halloween Bash is the party of the year, one you never want to miss (Ruby). I honestly believe it get's better every year. Everyone appeared to be having a fantastic time last night. Please remember as you look at these pictures that Alcohol was a factor, don't hold it against anyone and please folks, don't try this at home!

Daniel and Hillary

We love to dress up, this is the one time of the year that we can dress as "trashy" as we want to and get away with it, not that any of us look trashy, right? Carla,Jodi, April, Janice, Deb, Lydia and Hillary

Glenn and April. She dressed up like a sexy, vixen pirate. I think she may be kin to someone named Captain Morgan. It would have been nice if Glenn would have dressed up but he just came as he was, no costume for him.

Daniel has his work cut out for him tonight.

Janice and Tammy, cat burglar and the police.

Gina frisked Joe down, he looks like he is enjoying this.

Janice had a clothing malfunction, Joe hated to help but he did out the kindness of his heart. Thanks Joe.

I'm starting to believe that Joe likes being frisked :)

Hot biker chick!

Just to show I was kidding earlier, Glenn without his costume.

Watch out, the cat burglar is on the prowl.....

Deb is a pole dancing DIVA. We all like to try but she rocks!

Halloween continued

Once the pole dancing starts, things always crank up a notch or two and you never know what you might see............

Gina and Lydia, that's pretty impressive, no one's feet are touching the floor.

This is a shot of all the voyeurs















The Man With A Can

















Mark was trying to make the pole alittle slicker with some

good ol WD-40.














Time to ditch the black boots and put on my dancing shoes.

Mark and Tammy

We have a new priest, did James confiscate that vodka from Paul or is Paul trying to corrupt James?

I love Tammy, can you tell? I also love this picture of Big Dale.

Tammy was backing it on up! Gina was warming up for her performance.

When Paul gets started, he is hard to stop, he loves to dance as long as I can find the right music. I promise I am gonna put some stuff on my Ipod just for Paul very soon. (and some Aerosmith for Kim)

See what I mean, total air!

I tried very hard to get a shot of April's face but she was alittle like Sarah and avoided the camera.

Daniel knows how to work the pole

Glenn tested it and then decided he would just watch, he just doesn't look like the pole dancing type.

Sweet little Lydia tried to talk him into it but by the look on his face I believe that is a firm "NO" or maybe "Hell No"

uh-oh, is that Bryan?...

showing off some moves for us ladies.

Is he spanking the pole?

uh, Bryan I thought you were dancing for the ladies?

Not sure but this is starting to look like a party for two.... (lol)

I think Glenn has had enough of Bryan's dancing, it looks like he is hollering for April to get him outta hear.

Me and Tammy doing what we do best

And finally it was time to go home but not before Dale tried to burn the moonshine. Speaking of moonshine, has anybody seen Mark Gerrell?
