Steve_in_PA Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hi All, This is the journey of Thelma the Bear as she travels around the U.S. & Canada visiting friends. She left sunny San Diego, CA & arrived safe and sound here in cold Marietta,PA. She spent most of yesterday just lounging around & checking out all the dollhouses here at Steve & Madeline's. Later today we will send some pics to Teresa to put on her web page. We hoped to wait until tomorrow & shoot a video of Thelma going to the Amish Farmer's Market, but they are calling for a serious snow storm, so we may do it today & just go around town & out to the country store. For those who asked , Thelma is 3 3/4" tall, on her tippy-toes. And you can see the guidlines for her visit at http://www.flickr.com/photos/smb900 Later today we will post more about her adventures in Marietta,PA Steve & Madeline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniMadWoman Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I'm glad I'm further up on the list with this one!! With the 'Twins' it was like being picked last for the baseball team! Really though, I don't mind where I'm at . . . I'm just happy to participate in all the fun!! No spring blossoms here . . . we're getting snow, snow and more snow!

Esther Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 If my figuring is correct, I should be seeing her about the last week of March, or possibly the first week in April...hmmm that would be the week of Easter. Sounds great to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_in_PA Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 We just got home!! Steve put me in a safety travel container & we did a video all over Marietta. I even went down to see the Susquehanna River. After that we rode out to the country store to stock up on some homemade goodies before the snow hits here tomorrow. I had a lot of stuff I never heard of before! I had some broccoli salad & a red beet egg, & some homemade cheese & finished it off with some chocolate eclair cake!!! I must take a nap now. Later we are going to take pics of Steve's dollhouses. I will write more later. love , Thelma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esther Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Steve, if you keep feeding her like that, she's not going to fit into her tutu anymore! Make sure she practices her ballet, so she stays in shape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missymew Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Steve, if you keep feeding her like that, she's not going to fit into her tutu anymore! Make sure she practices her ballet, so she stays in shape! Uh oh, Missymew is looking forward to having Thelma spend time with her enjoying her favourite activities: eating, sleeping and cuddling!! I'll let Missymew know that Thelma must also practice her ballet. -Susanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grynche Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 3 3/4" tall. That's fine. I was worried she'd be something and 15/32nds or 19/64ths and I just can't count all those little black lines to save my soul. Quarter inches, piece of cake. Which reminds me, add "cake" to list of things to get for Thelma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_in_PA Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Well, I finally got her up! She went to the restaurant for breakfast. (I'd hate to have to feed her all the time!) Then she went to Bob's Barber Shop to primp up a bit. Then to visit 'Fireman Steve' at the fire house. She says she's tired already, but later she is going out to the shop to help me work. I'll let her rest a little, I have to make a run to the real firehouse. Then back home to work! Pics have been sent to teresa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_in_PA Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Well....We had a busy day! Shoveling snow & working in the shop. Right now we are burning copies of Thelma's DVD. It will be included in her box, so that all can see her adventures. We will take the last of her pics tonight & get them out to Teresa. Then tomorrow morning she will be on her way to Canada!! We had fun during her visit here, but I'd hate to have to feed her all the time!! We tried to get her to practice her dance & exercise, but she has a mind of her own!!
