clappy- Anyhow he had a small hole drilled in it big enough to put the diamond engagement ring. He plugged it up with a cork and presented her with it. what a romantic fellow - your cousin is one lucky girl me thinks. the beaches of oregon and vancouver island and the queen charlottes used to be littered with these floats. beachcombers would take their wheelbarrows with them in order to carry their loot back. apparently there is a "necklace" of glass balls floating in one area of the pacific (sailors often come upon them in the doldrums) just waiting for a storm to carry them to shore. i've got a few that i bought at junk stores and garage sales - the sellers not realizing their value now. but the one i found, is the best. that's a barbecue behind me on the boat. it comes in really handy when we're anchored - especially if we're lucky enough to catch a low tide and pick up some oysters. just throw them on the barbie till they pop open, add a little hot sauce - hmmhmmm! how was the wake clappy? where there lots of good stories and memories about uncle jerry? lots of laughs? laughter is important at wakes don't you think? rose He could have presented it to her while wearing his new found thong. ...they take a bit of getting used to. he probably would have found it irritating <g>
