edna Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 A small village on the mountain. There is plenty of them near Madrid (some 70 km) and many people have houses there with swimming pools and fireplaces. My husband' s family had a big house in one of those small villages, they used to go there in summer or weekends, and now his sisters and brothers have houses too. Some years ago we even used to spend a whole week or more in the big house. Plus I have many friends who left Madrid and now are living in other small places, so we only have to decide which way we' re heading It' s quite a cool way to live, I must say. I love to live in the city but I love those weekends and summer nights in the woods...
_Laurie_ Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Posted August 7, 2009 Oh Edna, that sounds soooooo nice...I wanna go to the mountain!
Levis Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 I wasn't looking for a mountain There was a mountain It was was a big f*cking mountain So I climbed the mountain It was no ordinary mountain It was a strange looking mountain But when I got to the top it was two foot tall it was oh-so-small
edna Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 Oh Edna, that sounds soooooo nice...I wanna go to the mountain! I must say that it' s a real break from routine... we need to go from time to time. Yesterday we were at a friend' s place, 40 minutes from home. We were planning to go to see another friend this weekend, on the North side... or we might go to the village and just have lunch with the family or watch the landscape or smell the air... It' s so near that we can come back home... or stay there, if we feel like. Laurie, I'm taking you with me...
pinkstones Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 Speaking of mountains, there are some really nice mountains a couple hours west of where I live. Once you get past Asheville and toward the Blue Ridges.....gorgeous.

Shawna Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 well, I headed for Las Vegas only made it out to Needles.
pinkstones Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 I sang that in the same meter as the Three Dog Night song and it worked.
pinkstones Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 What do you mean? I said it worked - that means it fit the meter.
Shawna Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 if you're referring to my post, PS, it is actually from the same 3 Dog Night song...
