    Queen of Heaven Cemetery. To visit your Mom's grave on her 92nd Birthday

  • 9 years ago

    Amy....Our FIRST STOP....Queen of Heaven, not a bad guess but no banana. And My Mom is here in Orange County, not in Los Angeles County......Amy, that was good guess....but wrong!!

    Do you remember my rhyme clues from several days ago? That was probably my favorite clue...LOL! But then I am kind of weird.....................Possibly a capital C might assist you in some way.


  • 9 years ago

    Annie, I can't find anything that rhymes with "king" or "date".

  • 9 years ago

    Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park...to visit Marilyn Monroe's grave.

  • 9 years ago

    Shirley......you are a pretty sharp gal! All of you FOTESSERS are.....Read how I wrote the ENTIRE CLUE about rhymes with "king" or "date", to name a few.....and I will add another rhyme...rhymes with "bed"..........I know I am strange!!


  • 9 years ago
    last modified: 9 years ago

    Emily...No on Pierce......

  • 9 years ago

    I feel like someone is going to get both parts of Our FIRST STOP very soon....come on FUN GIRLS....You can do it! Make me proud!

  • 9 years ago

    I love the Princess Pouch! What girl can resist the princess theme? Our company had their picnic this weekend and it went well. The pressure is off now! Heidi

    Forest Lawn Memorial Park..to visit graves of famous people

  • 9 years ago


    The Zulu Tatoo - to get a tattoo or just check out the art?

  • 9 years ago
    last modified: 9 years ago

    Emily and Shirley....NO and NO...I am confused!! How did we go from a cemetery to a Tatoo Place????? My goodness, i think we are going backwards!!!

    a clue.....gilda....................LOL!

  • 9 years ago

    Somewhere in here, Anne, you mentioned that one of these might not be considered appropriate and that your husband would not do this, and because I still can't get anything to rhyme, I thought I'd toss that out there.

    I'm so confused!

    But I don't have a problem with tattoos.

    AGGGGGHHH!

  • 9 years ago

    Was it the Holy Cross Cemetery to see where RIta Hayworth who played in the movie GIlda was buried?

  • 9 years ago

    Amy, you are absoloutley correct on the place.....DING....DING....DING....HOLY CROSS CEMETARY.........but you need to be more specific regarding the other part....pretty please!!

  • 9 years ago

    Holy Cross Cemetery contains the graves of many of Hollywood's biggest stars, including Bing Crosby, Loretta Young, Ray Bolger, Jimmy Durante, Fred MacMurray, Rosalind Russell,Lawrence Welk, Charles Boyer, Bela Lugosi, Rita Hayworth, Jack Haley, Jackie Coogan, Pat O'Brien, Dennis Day,Louella Parsons, Spike Jones, Sharon Tate, Joan Davis, Edmond O'Brien, Mary Astor, ZaSu Pitts, John Ford, Mario Lanza, Joe Flynn, Richard Arlen, MacDonald Carey, comic actor John Candy, and more recently, Mary Frann,Vince Edwards and Audrey Meadows.

  • 9 years ago

    Maybe the Two that rhyme are Bing Crosby, Sharon Tate

  • 9 years ago
    last modified: 9 years ago

    So Amy, Our fellow Fotesser Shirley (sjc) often goes Cemetary
    Chasing, what kind of Chasing were we doing??????? LOL!
    ________________ Chasing

    And there is "bed"...rhymes with Fred (MacMurray)

    Yes,
    "king" rhymes with Bing (Crosby)......"date" rhymes with Tate
    (Sharon)....her marker was Sharon Tate Pulanski and her unborn child.

    Clue candy was for John Candy.

  • 9 years ago

    oh and I forgot above...I loved this clue....surely (Shirley), you would have a good time with us (or something like that)

    Good work Amy...you win! But complete this______________ Chasing!!!

    Happy Evening!

    Annie

  • 9 years ago

    I feel like such a ninny.

  • 9 years ago

    Shirley, you are not a ninny....but I am surprised you did not figure out, our FIRST STOP, the cemetery...HOLY CROSS CEMETERY and what we were doing their. After all...you are Shirley and you are a cemetery chaser!!!
    I love visiting cemeteries.......I failed to mention, that we only hit five or six "persons of interest". Time was of the essence!
    How about a guess on the last one we said hello to? __________ ____________ hint....she had quite the habit

    But Amy, in order to win your prize, you must complete what our purpose was at Holy Cross Cemetery _____________ Chasing!
    Thanks for playing FUN GIRLS....You are FUN GIRLS!

    Happy Evening!

    Loretta Young

  • 9 years ago

    I got my lovely package from Beth today. She really packed a flat rate bubble envelope full. I would not have thought it could hold all that. Thank you so much! Those magazines look really interesting. Looking forward to reading them. I have never used poultry seasoning so that should be a fun item to try.


  • 9 years ago

    Gloria Vanderbilt?

  • 9 years ago

    Amy, I am very impressed with your puzzle solving skills. Congratulations!

  • 9 years ago

    Holy Cross Cemetery Celebrity Chasing!

  • 9 years ago

  • 9 years ago

    Hey, Everyone!

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I am going to be without internet service for about a week, starting Oct. 28th. I'll get back into the swaps as soon as I can.

    Good job, Amy!

    Have a great day, All!

    Shirley!

  • 9 years ago

    AMY....DING A LING...DING A LING....DING....DING...DING....Yes, we were CELEBRITY CHASING.................Well done Amy!!

    My sister had chosen some people we really enjoy like Bing and Rita prior to our visit. By accident we did see Bela Lugosi too...he was close to Bing.

    I need three more words for bingo :)

    Happy Tuesday and hoping everyone is having a Terrific TUESDAY.

    my guess which is probably wrong because I am NOT doing well in this game:

    Rosalind Russell?

  • 9 years ago

    Ann Miller

  • 9 years ago

    Nicole....you got it....Rosalind Russell wore quite the habit in "The Trouble With Angels" and "Where Angels Go Trouble Follows".....These flicks were done in 1966 and 1968. Nicole, I would make a good guess that you were not even born yet....Love Roz!

    and us before we journied on to out Second Stop.......

    I received Ruth's wonderful package yesterday. Sorry not to have posted then. I had errands to run and then came home and took a nap! I'll be more specific about what she sent in her fabulous package the next time I post. This afternoon I have to go through the booklets and paperwork to decide on health insurance for next year. Did I ever say how much I dislike going through anything insurance related?

    Jeanne

  • 9 years ago

    OMG!!! I can't believe I got one answer right. Your game was very challenging, its like finding waldo in Los Angeles County!! What a cute pic of you all!! You know how to have FUN FUN FUN!!!

  • 9 years ago

    what a fun sibs pic! WHO'S excited for the world series!? Maybe no one but me...but I AM SO EXCITED. GO CUBBIES GO!

  • 9 years ago

    Also, Emily I also have that candle it is delicious!

  • 9 years ago

    Breanne, I am impressed you could tell what it is. My picture taking abilities are not the best so it was a bit fuzzy.

  • 9 years ago

    Great picture Annie! SO cute of you three! Super fun game! I have never been to California and learned quite a few interesting things. I would love to visit CA someday! I never realized how much there was to do in CA.

  • 9 years ago

    Thanks for sharing the picture, Annie! You all look like you were having a FUN day!

  • 9 years ago

    Breanne, I am excited for the World Series.........and I am pulling for the Cubs. And I am in quite a few of those "FUN POOLS", you know the ones for real $$$$.....LOL!

    Amy, I am always a bit surprised to hear when someone says they have not been to CA......not sure why that is. There is lots to do but I find that regardless of what state I travel to...I always find lots to do. To be perfectly honest, I am not a LOS ANGELES lover by any means. In fact, I really do not like it. But sometimes you just gotta go their.

    Good Evening!! Have FUN! And be Happy!

    Annie

  • 9 years ago

    My Mom was a rabid baseball fan. I have never been, SO........Breanne or Annie, or whoever else follows baseball - How many games are played in the WS?

    And to show support and solidarity with my fellow FUN GIRLS, I will cheer for the Cubs too!.

    Tonight is the opening night for the NBA 2016. Part of me is really happy; part of me thinks "oh no, not again! I'm too old for this!"

    I have to find a way not to get so excited, or angry at the refs.

    it's just a game, right?

    Shirley!

  • 9 years ago

    Shirley - IT's never JUST a GAME! lol. J/K...The world series consists of 7 games. Best out of wins the whole kit and caboodle. Cubs did not have a good showing last night...stinky Indians. OH WELL...here's to the next 4!

    Annie - I just visited California for the 1st time ever last May and I loved it. I wish I'd had so much more time. It was a whirlwind. I had to go to San Francisco on business but managed to see the ocean, the bay, the GG bridge, Alcatraz, The Giant Redwoods, the Bay Bridge, The Fisherman's Wharf, the Sea Lions on Pier 39, China Town, and Coit Tower all while we were there! I had such a lovely time. Cannot wait to visit again! Now only 4 states left for me to see!

  • 9 years ago

    I cheered as hard as I could, Breanne, better luck on the next game!

    Cold and rainy here today, good day to snuggle in and read!

    Shirley!

  • 9 years ago

    Shirley--wanted to show you the card I made today with your gift! What fun! Heidi

  • 9 years ago

    Breanne, you can have the next game where we guess which 4 states you've never visited! When you say whirlwind you mean it. You saw so much--and so exciting. Heidi

  • 9 years ago

    So pretty, Heidi. Shirley, I also received your gift and will post under the other thread. I'm not sure you will see it there. Thanks so much. Playing as a team was fun.

    And here are the lovely birdhouses that were part of the package I received from Ruth. Aren't they cute? Ruth, did you make them? Other things included were a candy bar (gone at this point - LOL), some packets of morning glory seeds, a little mushroom to put in fairy garden, and on the "girlie side", body wash, skin lotion, and sun shades lip balm with the flavor "Pumpkin Spice". How perfect - it has joined the pumpkin hand sanitizer that I carry in my purse!

    Thank you so much, Ruth!

    Jeanne

  • 9 years ago

    Jeanne, I saw the post, glad you liked the prizes!

    Heidi, that is just beautiful! You are so good at this! Thanks for sharing, and once again, inspiring me - to use all that ribbon I've collected - thanks!

    Ruth, love the little trees!

    The Dubs lost their opener - there goes the perfect season! Oh Well.

    Shirley!

  • 9 years ago

    Heidi - beautiful card (as always) I'm still using the ones you sent me a few months ago! I think that game would be fun, but then I know all the answers! HAHA :)
