Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
They know. This is funny. Hysterical even. You made yourselves laugh and that was what you needed to pull it off. Moving day is upon be. A grueling 5 hours there and 5 hours back. Then they will park the truck at her house and be back sunday morning to unload.
Unpacking and arranging and rearranging, and giving more stuff away. It is going to be hard. Wish me good luck and safe travels please, Karen

Thank you for the very nice review.
Yes indeed, the bare bottoms did the trick. And as long as I let my wife crop the photo instantly!, all was good.
(I hate moving. My last one just about killed me.)

well, today is hurry up and wait. I need to relax. I guess I will write! :-)
Writing Prompt
***Invent 5 DAFFYNITIONS. List them and their new definitions, and use them in a sentence.***
Daffynitions came from a game played on the BBC Radio 4 comedy quiz show I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue. Redefine an existing word.
Here are some examples from the program:
*antelope, to run off with your mother?s sister
*brouhaha, a jolly tea party
*coffee, someone who is coughed on
*diphthong, to wash an undergarment
*fecund, the one before fird
*gladiator, an unrepentant cannibal
*kindred, fear of one's own family
*relief, what trees do in spring
*scandal, footwear you should be ashamed of
They are hysterical. I must have hit the wrong button. Or you rate only fives and
sixes. It has been corrected. :-)

I once accidentally gave a well-respected writer a one. Grrrr at myself.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Hah! A cunning plan! But probably best you're not a professional photographer! I must admit, I didn't know where this was going but quite relieved that it stayed decent and you even cropped the photograph. Great image too, vividly evoking the setting. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Thank you very much. It was great fun.
(I'm glad this was a blind contest - pun intended - which helped me not post that particular photo.)

Well at least it would have been cropped, even if it was a bit of a give-away!

I think it would have caused far too much 'imagining' of what should not be imagined at all. 8-)
Comment from Begin Again
Oh good heavens! She definitely must have been a brave sort or really wanted an great picture regardless of the effort it took. I for one would have be satisfied with less of a smile. Great story though.
Smiles, Carol

Thank you for your very nice review.
My wife is a very good sport!
Comment from Crystal A Castaneda
A smile is so important in my eyes. This is a good way to make someone giggle forever every time they see that picture because only you both know the truth. I love it.

Comment from Dr. Nad
This is funny. I don't know if this was the day that you removed your pants or not but it looks like pants in the distance. When we were young we all do wild and crazy things and chalk it up to youth. When we get old we too often look back and chid our old self for our innocent fun. Sometimes I think we should just forget that we're adults and enjoy life!
