Gnorm takes on Miami

Gnorm and I went to Miami late last week and managed to hit the beach for a few minutes....
He was very excited to find a ant-filled coconut and two pineapples laying on the beach. He also really liked the salt water until disaster struck....






































Gnorm wanted to be a lifeguard, but they said he was too small.






















Best friends, traveling companions.....






























































Well, there was a near fatal accident on the beach when Gnorm got too close to the water.... I lost a lens cap to the ocean while racing to save him. Small price to pay.

Gnorm and the Girlie Weekend

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I took Gnorm along on a girlie weekend in Madison with my friends Megan and Dani, and he had a blast. It was pretty hard to get him to behave, especially since it was St Patrick's Day weekend.....
My gorgeous friends were willing to play model for me, too...I'll post some of those to my business blog

Gnorm the Ice Man

Gnorm and I flew into Cleveland this week into a big ice storm.

Much time was spent in airports....
near the much needed de-icers....












































Because our flight was so delayed we didn't get into our room until after 11pm and we were getting picked up at 6:30am for our meeting we had a short night.
I took a photo of Gnorm of the time we got in....and then in the morning when we got up I tried to take another....but no matter what angle I shot at or what settings I used, I could not get the numbers to show up in the photo. It was bizarre....... and I must say it freaked me out a bit :)





































And Gnorm wanted me to show you the ice on the hotel room window when we got in that night...








































My daughter did not tell me that she owned a bar and restaurant...... Not happy about her stashing the money and not sharing....





















Lastly, the view out of my hotel room of the icy airport the morning we left.....

Gnorm hits the motor city

Gnorm admitted to me that he was a bit nervous about going to Detroit. It was his first time, after all. He was a litle worried that he might encounter Eminem or Kid Rock.....

Turns out he was fine and didn't see anything tooooo scary, and he actually got to stay in his best hotel to date. He told me that he really didn't want to do any photos out in the city because he thought it was too scary, but begged me to take his photo in his fancy schmancy hotel room.













































Gnorm has never been in such a large shower. He told me that if I brought in a nice comfy blanket and a toaster he would just live in there. I thought it was not such a bad idea, might make his smell a little better.






































Gnorm thought it was pretty cool that he could call his boo from the can

















































































Gnorm enjoyed the cd that they left in the room for our listening enjoyment...some nice indie acoustic rock....




























































On the way home we went through Chicago.



















...Thank God he was not too big to take as a carry on.....



















and to make all of my warm weather friends jealous.....my front yard yesterday morning.
