September 5, 1999 - 1:36pm: The Adventure Begins!
NOTE: The folks where home when we took him,(notice the car in the driveway *S*) and Tracey waited for the kid in the driveway to make a shot and miss, before grabbing him.... I sat in the get-a-way car on the side of the house... thank GOD it was on a corner :)......it took us an hour and a half and three bathroom trips to find the PERFECT little guy :)

NOTE:The kid at the Go-Cart place was cracking up....he tried to tell us that it was his gnome - but we didn't buy it :) Then we thought "Wouldn't it be funny, if we DO end up meeting the owners????? hahahhaah"

September 5, 1999 - 4:10 pm: Going Shopping!
NOTE: When we got in here - a lot of people looked confused, it was hilarious.... we told a clerk what we were doing and he was all for it - while we were taking the picture - another clerk came up and said "Why is there a gnome on our counter?", the guy explained that we stole it and was going around town with it.... and in a snotty little voice she says "And, you're buying it clothes?", the clerk told her to shut-up and that he would explain later :) *shaking my head*

September 5, 1999 - 4:28 pm: Munchin on some Grindage!
NOTE:This trip was uneventful, we were actually late to go sailing - so we just took the picture - without explanation and left :)

September 5, 1999 - 5:00 pm: Going to the Movies!
NOTE:This one cracks me UP!!! We go there and there are no empty theatre so we are told to come back in 20 minutes. When we get back, the manager comes up and says "You must be the ladies with the gnome?" and he smiles and takes us to an empty theatre.....we sit there and he says "hey, want some more people?" we all start laughing and he runs in the hall and gathers people and takes the pic hahhahaahah
SIDE NOTE: It gets even better, or worse.... however you want to look at it :) After the "movie" pic, we were driving and I saw a cop car stopped along the sidewalk. I
said "wouldn't it be funny to get a pic in back of a cop car?" Tracey just shook her head and told me not to do it...... but I did! *LMAO*.... I walked up to the car and
said "Excuse me, I was wondering if you could do me a favor?". "Depends." he mutters..... "Well, we are playing a trick on a friend of ours. We stole his gnome and
we are going around town taking pictures with it. I was wondering if we could take a pic with it in back of the car?" he looks at me for a second and says, "What's your
friend's name?", and non-chalently, I make up a name and a place of residence..... he thinks about it for a minute... and says..... OK! So, I run to the car and tell Tracey
to bring him.....and we took a picture.....Hindsight, we should have taken the pic with him in the window and of the whole car - but at the time - I was so nervous that I
really didn't have time to think :) The policeman did, however, put a police cap on him ...... all you can see are the bars a bit LMAO... man where we nervous after that :)

September 5, 1999 - 7:45 pm: Bar Hoppin!

minding my own business.... when these two beautiful women drive by in a fancy sports car... and asked if I wanted to go for a drive, but I was hesitant - being that I had never left the comforts of my home in years.... my folks were home and my brother was playing basketball in the driveway.... would they even know that I was missing? "Probably not", I thought..... so I motioned for them to come and get me...... and off we went!........
Of course I was scared at first....(as you can see, I had me a little accident and the bumper kinda fell off) but after a few laps - I felt the need for speed.. and I even kicked their asses! Jeff Gordon.... eat my dust! 
It was fun, I even made what they call a whole in one... THREE TIMES! I don't really know what that means but it made me feel very excited, especially when the girls would jump up and down and hug me.... I tried to get more, but the game is a lot harder than it looks.... but, the fun was over when I bent down to pick up my ball, and I ripped my knickers. I was so embarrassed.. my cheeks turned red.... The girls smiled and said that they had a solution.....
some new knickers..... the staff was very friendly, accept for one girl who wasn't very nice to me - but I put a curse on her *teehee*... It was tough finding pants my size, but we did! A brand spanking new pair of Oshkosh for kids! I felt so spoiled.... and hungry!
I had a Chicken Parmesan Ranch Wrap..... I know what you're thinking - such a big sandwich for such a little lad.... but trust me folks - this stuff is goooooooood! 
I told them that I wanted to see The Wizard of Oz When we got there, I was still hungry, so they bought me some popcorn and a drink. During the movie, I noticed that one of the little elves looked awfully familiar.... and upon a closer look.... I saw it was Cousin Vinny!!!! Wow, I was so proud! and he looked so BIG on that screen.....after the movie, I started to get a soar tummy, so one of the girls rubbed my belly for me, and I felt better *wink* 
They gave me this stuff called "beer".. I didn't really like the taste, but it made me feel all funny inside, and the next thing I knew - I was dancing on the tables... everyone was clapping and having a good time..... then I started to feel something and tried to explain it to the girls. They took my hand and escorted me to a room called BathRoom, and that's where I learnt what little Willie was for :)
Then, I started playing this game called "Slots"... I figured, being that I have the luck of the Irish, I couldn't lose, and I was right. I won my Pot of Gold and then some... all the girls where hanging all over me.... but I had my eye on this particular chick. She was bald but had the bluest eyes and the longest eyelashes......
I found that to be a GREAT idea since I had a pretty long day and I was getting awfully tired. I don't know if it was the beer or what - but I don't remember much after that - the next thing I remember, is being back home, on the lawn with a plastic bag over my head???? I will surely miss those girls.... but they assured me, that they will be back next year.... for a whole new adventure!!!! Yipppeeeeee!
