HEY! It's ME, Travelin' Charmin', still here in Savannah, Georgia

Charmie & Teresa
Hi Everyone! Here I am PLAYing in an electronic book in a MEDIA store that requested we not take pictures of their logo or show their name...

Charmie & Teresa
This nice gal helped me, as Cousin Nicki did not wish to be photographed!! This is the store where Nicki works. Gee, thanks for the big welcome; I can't mention the store's name AND Nicki didn't want her pic made!!******* I am wearing the great weekender outfit that Aunt Nancy made just for me!!

Last week, the family went to one of the Applebee's in Savannah; Their foyer is full of Armstrong stuff and Girl Scout stuff, too. We are standing under a picture map of down town Savannah, but you can't see that in the pic above.

Charmie & Teresa

Okay, we are standing on Cousin Shawn's head in this picture!!! But we wanted you to see us in front of the picture of the old timey Cadette or Senior Girlscout Sash and the picture of GS Founder Juliette Low. This was fun. Shawn didn't fuss at all!! And Donna took the picture!!! NEXT......the aquarium.....


Letter #8 - Monday, May 3, 2004 :

Charmie & Teresa

Okay, here we are at Aquarium on that SKID AWAY ISLAND I told you about before. We did not SKID-away, I am so- o o o o oo happy to say....

Charmie & Teresa

Man, Teresa got lost behind the overgrowth of flowers beneath this prettier sign at the Aquarium. But you can SEE ME!!

Charmie & Teresa

Here I am peering over an outside holding tank with Turtles in it. But you can barely even see even one. There is one on top of the brown log, just below the fountain part. REALLY! It is there. It's aturtle and I saw it!! REALLY!!


Letter #9 - Monday, May 3, 2004 :

Charmie & Teresa

Nope, I am not doing push ups. I am just peering in at turtles.... Teresa was a bit more leary than me. She was scared. But I am not scared of anything!!

Charmie & Teresa

Okay, finally, HERE is a TURTLE that YOU ALL CAN SEE, TOO!!

Charmie & Teresa

Okay, here's what you all have been waiting for!! Here is a picture of Aunt Donna~~Aunt Donna's HAND holding me up next to the sign!! GOTCHA, didn't we??? HA HA.

Charmie & Teresa

This was taken inside. We sat down on the floor to look into the fish tank room, but they didn't show up in this picture.....Sorry. They were pretty, though.

Charmie & Teresa

You can barely see us in the shadows here, either. This was taken outside behind the aquarium, in a shaded picnic table area; bordering on the Atlantic Ocean. And we did NOT fall off into the ocean, either. I am so glad about that, too!!! It IS a lovely view.


Letter #10 - Monday, May 10, 2004 :

Charmie playing Army

Hey, again! Here I am dressed in the BDU's Aunt Nancy got for me to wear!

Charmie playing Army

Here is little ole me NEXT to a static display on HAAF. I am the tiny speck of flesh/pink just behind the mouth!! Don't my camoflauge clothes work great????

Charmie playing Army

Okay, this is much better. Cousin Matthew chose this helicopter for me to pose with. There was also a Huey helicopter besides this one..... But Matthew liked the teeth. This is a Cobra, which was an attack helicopter. Many more helicopter pix to come. This was fun!! I didn't sit in a real one because Aunt Donna and Cousin Shawn didn't think we should go take pictures next to the currently used American military equipment~~whatever.

Current?

Does that mean electricity??

Shawn said something about someone somewhere got in trouble for taking pics that got put on the internet and she didn't want US in trouble. So we just played on this one. It's like a giant yard ornament. So cool!!
