Big Balls - Not Golden but We Are Getting Closer

 Diane has made a suggestion for a bravery award: There should be a BIG PAIR OF GOLDEN NUTS award!

Because we are all one big happy family. We have a suggestion....

LunaKris is trying to help us out with locating just the right kind of Nuts for our bravery award.

"Back in May, you posted something about Fred Johnson and his giant bronzed ball. I thought you might like to see these pictures of stone balls from Costa Rica. A few myths about these balls include their Atlantis origin, a special potion to soften rock invented by the locals, and the amazing notion that a single coffee bean is in the center of each ball. Juan Valdez got around! One picture is a ball taking a vacation at a New Zealand beach. Fred Johnson would be proud."
 
a possibility...
good choices...

this one is appealing and romantic in the surf

This might be the one... I wonder what it would cost to gild it?

  1. I asked Z to pose for the BIG BALLS award.
    He said " not on a cold day " umm, perhaps that was..

    " ON A COLD DAY IN HELL " lol

    Also when I said "gilded " he thought I said " gelded "
    He is now weeping in the corner , rocking back and forth in the fetal position.

    PS tomorrow is his birthday. The big 70. I shall be kinder !!!

  2. I say, go with the sensual one in the surf. If that ball could speak, I bet he'd have a Latin accent!

  3. Kristi, poor Z. Don't tease a man about gelding it ruins their day. Happy Birthday Z.

  4. Oh, I think I'm gonna leave the ball comments right where they belong--in my dirty mind. Although the one in the surf is lovely.

    I featured you on the Duck and Wheel today. After telling the pallies about your blog, they insisted I post the link. It's more fun when everyone plays along, right? ;)

  7. Wow -- lh, I'd be careful of that VanillaSeven offer, you don't know WHAT you'll get!!

    Now snickering envisioning future conversations gone wrong:

    "Hey, can I send you my giant nut pictures?"

    "Why certainly, I'll feature them on my....NOOO OMG MY EYES!!!"

  8. eventer79, we bloggers take our lives into our own hands every day. But if I get a really good nut picture, you will be the first one I copy.
