Happy Birthday Belle!!

Is that right that you're 102 years old, it can't be, you look so young!
Hopefully Miss Tina will let you take some pics on your birthday and you'll get to do something fun!
(maybe Mitch won't complain about YOUR birthday cake)

We've missed you Belle. Come out, come out, wherever you are.

"Happy Birthday Hannah"??? Who's Hannah?

[BarbaraRose]

Maybe her name was originally Hanna Belle and was shortened to Belle???

What is her background anyways? Where did she come from? When? Just curious

She started with Lori, I think, and then was passed to Liz here: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=942
and then on from there, now she's with Tina.

I need to quit multi-tasking today!
(Today, I already made a Fresh Apple Cake, baked it, and took it out of the oven. It was more like apple pudding. I forgot to put in the flour...)

So, everyone JUST SHUT UP!

When Carolyn and I visited Appalachacola she met with one of Belle's cousins. Thought you would enjoy this piccture.

Wow Belle, I hope you don't grow that tall, Herschel might have to strap you on top of the short bus to take adventures!

Thank you, thank you for my birthday wishes. I would have posted earlier but.... but Izzy said she wanted to show me a birthday adventure. She took me kayaking. She felt very special because Herschel trusted her to keep an eye on the girls and make sure they didn't try to throw me off in the middle of the lake.


Izzy kept trying to find out who was expected to use the paddles. Li' M and Li' V were no help. They kept complaining about fading in the sunshine! I see them needing a spa day with a bright new Sharpe marker...



The girls just were not paddling their weight. They just wanted to stare out at the big boats.


Izzy tried to get us all to swim with her. But I liked my perch better.


Izzy found the trip more exciting than I but then after 102 years I have been around a lot longer than she has. And face it I am not that into anything that requires that much work. I much more enjoy the sun bathing watching the water float by.



Well now I need to shower and get my sun screen and bug spray rinsed off. I hear that some wonderful folks are planning to attend the GTG in AK. I can hardly wait to meet everyone You never know what part of the country I might decide to run off to next. This Ohio place is rather boring...but it is the hinterlands of America. Hope everyone enjoyed the 4th of July and please please take some of this cake with you.

Hannah Belle......

Good to see you out enjoying the water and sunshine, Belle. Happy Birthday!

I love when your "keeper" posts, Belle.
And it's good to know your first name is Hannah.
Must be a name popular in your birthyear, 1908...

Belle, Nan and I thought about you on several occasions when we were at St George. We figured these were some of your kin folk and when you grow up you can take flight and learn a lot from the Pink Ladies. Many more happy Birthdays and happy travels.

Belle started with Sprinter (Sharon, where are you - long time no see?) who brought her to a gtg in PA and passed her on to Lori. She's been traveling with one of us ever since - and hopefully forever. She loves rving and the women from our forum.

And I'm sure she had a great time kayaking with her current siblings. She sure learns to adapt well to all the different families she's had to travel with.

Watch out, Belle!!
I see Lil'V is being nice and staying with Izzy, but looks like mean Lil'M is trying to sneak up by you and try to throw you in the water!
