I need the people above to verify with me whether or not they are still on with participating in Larry Around the World. Please post here with a yeah or Nay or alternatively PM me. :)
I'm still on. but maybe I'll be living in England by the time it's my turn to host Larry :) depends on how long he gets stuck on the Indian subcontinent :)
:lol: Yes especially considering hes been on the North American continent for the best part of a year!:D
It would also be nice to get a few more people involved. :nod:
I'm still game.
I know that I am still pretty new to lit-net, but if you get larry to me by January, I can take him to the Middle East
You off with the army then? well, if he has gone up north and other let me know they are still in, and hes finished america by then, i'll stick him in, but it cant be garunteed. Especially as he has a tendency to not want to budge from some places. :D
Larry now has his own group!
If you love following the Larry around the world Thread, why not join?
Larry Appreciation Society
Larry packed his bags and is now on his way to Shalot!
I am still in :)
Oh, cool. What day did you send it? My mail people are weird. They come every other day or something.Quote:

I am still mulling it over, Niamh! :)
But what is this thing about CDs? Sorry I sound like I just got off the turnip truck, but really, what is this thing about CDs? :blush:
Guys, have I missed something interesting? :(
Boy, I didn't write that very well did I!!! :lol:Larry owns a CD that everybody has saved pictures too, somehow I mixed up this CD with my own personal CDs Shalot asked me to put Lar in the mail by friday so she could take him somewhere and I didn't have time to go through everything before I sent him off so the CD will follow.Quote:

Actually, I am glad that you did that because I wasn't real sure about what I was supposed to do with Larry. I knew I was supposed to take some pictures and post him, but I didn't know the specifics of the CD and all that jazz.Quote:

Thanks for clearing that up! :)Quote:

If you want to join up, and have Larry stay with you, then I believe that it is Niamh that you will want to contact, or just make your wishes known here? Hope this helps. :)
Thanks Kiz :D
I`ll definitely try to manage having Larry here. When i`m ready i`ll you guys know.
Larry made it just in time to join us on our trip to Surfside Beach. We were actually going to North Myrtle Beach, but the place we rented was filthy so we found ourselves an open room at Surfside Beach, which only a few miles away. Here's what Larry has been up to:
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...thebalcony.jpg
Larry looks at the Atlantic Ocean from the balcony of our sixth floor room at the Holiday Inn. We would have gone down to the beach, but blow-off from tropical storm Fay was stirring up some major wind at the South Carolina beaches. Some people seemed oblivious to the sand storm, but I didn't like having sand blowing into my eyes and skin so we decided to take our party up to the balcony instead. Larry was fine that.
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...watertaffy.jpg
On our last full day at Surfside, it rained on and off all day (more on than off), so we sat in the hotel room for a while trying to figure out what we should do instead of lazing on the beach. Larry finds the Souvenir Salt Water Taffy purchased from one of the many souvenir/beach gear shops that line highway 17 from Garden City to Myrtle Beach, and he is eager to give it a try. Larry agrees that the taffy is not that great, but out of boredom he eats piece after piece of the wretched stuff.
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...sandcastle.jpg
After eating way too much taffy, Larry is bouncing off the wall and desperately wants to go down to the beach. I was reluctant to take him down the beach because I knew that as soon as we got down there it would start to rain again, since the rain showers were lasting longer than the rain-free intermissions. Instead we venture out to the balcony again to do some serious people watching. Unfortunately, there is no one on the beach except the lifeguard, who apparently is required to stay at his post even when no one is in the water. To pass the time, the lifeguard builds a sandcastle, and hyperactive Larry sneaks into the photo as I try to snap the picture of the lifeguard and his sandcastle. That little speck there that you can barely see is the lifeguard (I forgot to turn on the Zoom function :goof:).
great pics, shalot. Too bad the weather wasn't very favorable for ya.
Yeay Larry is with Shal!!! :banana:
I'm sorry the weather is so crappy. It seems to be a problem all over the world at the moment!
And great pics! Love the last one.
That's great Shalot. :D But I would keep a watchful eye if Larry goes into the water. I'm not sure Leprchauns can swim and he may get sucked under. :lol: Have a great time on vacation. :)
Great pics Shal!
Larry celebrated Labor Day with me today in downtown Knox Vegas, Tennessee. We visited the Downtown Grill and Brewery and we had a Downtown Blonde Ale:

Larry liked the home brew a little too much I'm afraid:
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...toomuchale.jpg
But, he got a second wind and thought it would be fun to goof off with this guy rowing his boat in the concrete:
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...inconcrete.jpg
And here's just another shot of Larry and the statue in downtown Knoxville in front of the bank:
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...dthestatue.jpg
:lol: i just pissed myself laughing at Larry on top of the Beer!:lol:
That statue must be huge! Larry looks tiny!
Thanks for the great pics Shal. Hope you both are having a great time!
Do you think he might have grown by the time he reaches Europe, or has he passed his maturing years?
:lol: Glad to see Larry's out enjoying himself. That pic. of him with the beer is classic Larry!
so what's up with Larry now? Am I next?
yeah, you're next as far as I know. He's pretty bored with me now since I've kind of been wrapped up with school and I'm behind with that anyway so I guess go ahead and PM me your address.Quote:

I might come up with some Larry activities to make up for the boredom of the past week and I'll get some new pictures up even if they are just lameness around my house with homework and stuff.
Hey I missed your pictures Shalot. They're great!! :lol:
Well, it really does look like Larry has been to some great places!! I love all the pictures!
I already talked to Niamh and told her that I have to take my name off the list. Some things are going on in my life right now that wouldn't make me the best hostess for him. So, Weisinheimer, I believe I was after you, but you will have to skip me and go to the next on the list. OK?
I do look forward to seeing what he has been up to with everyone else, though. :)
Crap!!!! I took the CD all the way to Wyoming so I could send it last week and it never made it out of my bag. I'll post it tomorrow.
Larry is ready to go see Sarah W. but we were waiting around on the CD and I just thought I'd show you what he's been up to for the last few days (weeks):
Larry has been a good and patient houseguest while I work on my school stuff. He trys to get interested in Basic Calculus:

http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...rrylimits1.jpg
But, don't let that smile fool ya. Larry is totally bored with the subject after a while:
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...larrymath2.jpg
So, he decides to see what Kate is up to:

And then to reward Larry for his patience, I took him to the Smoky Mountains yesterday and we went wading in this stream:
http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...swebbcreek.jpg
Larry was happy:

Those pictures are great Shal! The calculus brings memories of shivers down my spine. ;) But the smoky mountains look great. So Larry has played with my dog and your cat and Petrarch's bird. What's next? :lol:
The pictures are really great :D
thats just awesome!!!:lol:
Great pics Shal!
:lol: Guess it's a good thing Larry's a literary forum leprechaun rather than a mathematics forum. Love the pics of him with the cat and stuck to the tree. He looks very much like a leprechaun in his natural state in those tree pics: as though he had magically popped up about half way up the trunk. Classic.
