Re: TEST YOUR MEMORY
 

Fun! Thought I missed two also, but it was only one. Where the heck is 'Lions and tigers and bears, oh my' from? And is it really snowing in Brooklyn? Sorry 'bout that....

Re: TEST YOUR MEMORY
 

Missed one. The one about lions and tigers? Do not recognize that.
Made me smile :) and "thanks for the memories" Who said that?

Re: TEST YOUR MEMORY

HB,
I wish this snow was a memory...

Re: TEST YOUR MEMORY
 

Donna by August it will be just a memory. You will have to look at pictures to see what snow feels like, put your hand in the freezer to feel the cold.

Ah, 'The Wizard of Oz'; know the story but just didn't remember 'lions and tigers.' We live near the Poconos, and when our youngest son drove with us to Clearwater for Thanksgiving and then to TV for our house closing there, he (a former long-haul commercial driver) took us on a route that involved the Poconos that was a little longer to FL but allowed us to avoid New Jersey, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington D.C., and so forth--that whole I-95 corridor which we really dislike. Beautiful ride! We'll be leaving this Tuesday driving to our home in TV; this time he's suggesting to skip the Poconos (snow...) and instead take I-287 to I-78 and so on. Still beats all the I-95 traffic! Oh yes, thanks again for 'Test Your Memory'; I'd already forgotten.... '-)
