Re: Happy Birthday Ming
Indeed, Anita - waterfalls always remind me of The Valley of Adventure, and I am so lucky to live in Ithaca which has over a hundred waterfalls quite close by, and I think at least 10 of them are right on campus.
My journey to class every morning takes me over waterfall - in fact, my dorm overlooks a gorge hike trail.
If anyone ever gets the chance to visit New York, a little town at the top of the state really is very "gorges"!

Re: Happy Birthday Ming
Happy Birthday for tomorrow, Ming.
Apologies for being a day early, Ming, but I just wanted to be first, again. Like last year.
*Takes Ming to a really expensive restaurant, in a gold plated, luxury appointed, Chauffeur driven, stretched Limo, and then to a show of Ming's choice, to celebrate her Birthday*

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)
