That weekend getaway looks gorgeous! And best of luck to the plumber. You hear so many stories of folks winning the lottery and then going bankrupt after mismanagement.
ReplyDeleteI love that weekend getaway! The perfect retreat if you're looking to truly relax.
ReplyDeleteCertainly made my weekend!
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous little frog...and that getaway looks absolutely amazing!
Have a Great Weekend.:))
I want the getaway mood like that. The glass house in the forest would be nice!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a lot of dough. A nice getaway too.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd be willing to settle for 30%, for sure. What an incredibly small frog. We saw one hop off into oblivion a few days ago that was almost imperceptible in size. The tree house getaway is pretty awesome.
ReplyDelete@Just Keepin It Real, Folks!: Very true, hope he can invest his winnings wisely. Thank you for stopping by!

Thanks for stopping by my site!
ReplyDeleteJust when it is thought that all species have been discovered, a tiny tiny frog proves them wrong.
That delightful vacation home would become a permanent home for me. We are preparing to move, downsize, and would love a green home.

WOW! That sure was a lucky win! I bet he won't keep working long, though. He'll be working with a ton of jealous people, I fear.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy for the plumber and his son.
ReplyDeleteI hope they manage the money well.
The getaway has my name written all over it!
It's just perfect.
Thanks for the constant support my dear.
Have a wonderful weekend.
