Nice pictures Leslie!  Quite the Lobsterfest! 

This is the whole crew, getting ready to cook the lobsters. The kid with the grey eyes is the one wearing the hat. (Click on the picture for a bigger view)

And of course, the kid with the grey eyes has got to be the only one looking down at his lobster ...  You could've gotten him to look up Leslie...  Look UP Brian! 


Hehe ...guess what I cooked for supper tonight?  Yap, chili!  and guess who I was thinking about the entire time ... uh huh! ...   *sigh*

Louise?  I confessed to being 3 chapters behind the other day, and now you think I haven't even started this volume?!  And after I gave you feedback on Chapter 55  (including a spoiler warning, I might add)  Huuuummm.  There ain't another LoveEmBoys round here, is there?

sorry sorry sorry... I thought it was you over on davecullen because of a similarity in avatars.  I didn't realize till long after that it was TwistsBitch who hadn't started LfA!!!

I love the bar boys David!!!!!

Okay, back to work for a while today... sorry things have dropped off again but... we started a new project phase and... we're pushing.

The Lobster event looked like it was a big success.  Did you serve coffee and Cherry cake afterwards?     

No, strawberry shortcake. It is strawberry season here in Maine!

I am still waiting for someone to identify the Disney kid. Anyone?

I was going to say Tim Considine but I guess that looks more like Tim standing behind him. (I'm thinking "Spin and Marty" here - anyone remember that series on Mickey Mouse Club? It had horses in it so I never missed it!)

I think you are right on both counts...Tim to the left and yes, a pic from Spin and Marty. I loved that too...remember the when one of them teaches the other how to catch snipes?

Since no one has guessed the other kid, I'll give the answer: Tommy Kirk. Star of Ol'Yeller and various other films, had a long term contract with Disney but was immediately released from it in 1964 when they found out he was gay. He was 23 at the time. More info at IMDb:

I read and shared your very ncie tribute on Davecullen, but of course CityGirl came back with guns blazing.

I swear, I wouldn't want to live in the world that CityGirl et al. live in, where people can only have one love in their lives and after that, are doomed to a life of misery and loneliness.

I am reminded of an episode of Seinfeld where George Constanza says to Jerry, "There is more to that Newman than meets the eye," and Jerry replies "Oh no, there's less.  Much less."

Tommy Kirk?    

 Geeez!   I'll never be able to watch Swiss Family Robinson the same way again!

I always thought those two sons on the island were getting into more mischief than we saw!

Thanks Louise. My powder isn't dry just yet.
