How is Italy? Thank you for coming by and taking a peek at my mermaid. The weather, this time of year, is often some of Vancouver’s best. As I write this we are in a mini heatwave that will last another day or two. <br /><br />BlackLOG - My you have been a busy little beaver...shooting up a storm. I’m hoping it’s the “aim, focus, click and print” kind of shooting since I’ve seen your (camera) equipment. <br /><br />I imagine the walls of Chateau BlackLOG would be enhanced with a shot of a mermaid photoshopped in between lions and cheetahs! <br /><br />If The Beast (you and your camera) and his lovely assistant (Mrs. B) ever find themselves in this part of the world then most definitely a mermaid hunt would be arranged! <br /><br />The Bronze Beach is the Best. The Silver, really can stay as Second Beach, but the Gold Beach really needs to be down graded - it’s currently called English Bay! <br /> A mermaid would much rather swim up to the shore of Third Beach any day - better beach, cuter sunbathers, tastier hotdogs! <br /><br />kneesandpaws - Thank you for your lovely comment!<br /> I am very proud of my daughter for finding a way to speak out on issues concerning our oceans and their inhabitants; presenting herself as a mermaid helps make the connection, particularly with the younger folks - although adults seem quite intrigued as well.<br /><br /> As to your question about swimming in the tail fin - she has no problem with it...I will be doing another post with her so that she may answer this and other questions in more detail. <br /><br />THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR DROPPING BY AND LEAVING YOUR COMMENTS - You rock!<br /><br /> Cheers, JennyPearson Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422640826640133140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9889100.post-87996800938133797392011-09-11T04:15:22.430-07:002011-09-11T04:15:22.430-07:00Your little mermaid is beautiful!

How old is your daughter? If you want you should take her over to www.vancouvermermaid.com, my daughter's site, where there are photos of many different mermaids we saw on our trip to Vegas in August, at the Mermaid Awards Convention.<br /><br />Also, if your daughter has any tail related question Courtney is more than happy to answer them for her!<br /><br />I think it's every girl's secret wish to be a mermaid like Ariel...one of the fairy princesses!<br /><br />Oh...I thought you should know my mom, Inge, an avid reader, is hooked on Before Ever After...she's very impressed with your writing and the story. I'm next, I can hardly wait!<br /><br />Cheers, JennyPearson Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422640826640133140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9889100.post-46210720941093913862011-09-07T15:38:36.190-07:002011-09-07T15:38:36.190-07:00So cool!!!

I have replied to your comment over there, but, just in case you didn't look at it again, yes, of course, you may use that poem. I thought that it was rather special.

She keeps goading me to make a tail too, but right now I think one mermaid in the family is enough.<br /><br />I'll extend your greetings to mom - I call her Inge too! <br />She's Austrian and has this great accent, which I mimic perfectly. <br /><br />I used to do stand up comedy and did a bit on my heritage - dare I say...even I laughed! Every time I broke into the Inge accent the crowds went wild - too funny!<br /><br />My clients crack up when I do my Inge impersonation. Now, bear in mind, I do it lovingly and without degradation - purely light and fun. <br /><br />I'm chuckling just thinking about it...hmmm...I really ought to get back into it. It was fun, but being a comic is very stressful, the prep is the hardest part and very time consuming.<br /><br />There you have it...confusion alleviated, hopefully!<br /><br />Thanks for dropping by Dezz, I always appreciate your comments.<br />Cheers, JennyPearson Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422640826640133140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9889100.post-70788859364366239462011-09-07T06:26:04.997-07:002011-09-07T06:26:04.997-07:00Now, I'm confused, is that mermaid you or some...Now, I'm confused, is that mermaid you or someone related to you?

Welcome to Pearson Report!...Creepy Query Girl - HI! Welcome to Pearson Report! I’m very happy to ‘meet’ you too! That was a great BBQ and I’m impressed you flew all the way over from France! <br />I hope you enjoy your visit here and take a moment to look around.<br /><br />Rob-bear - What a great avatar! We do see a few of those critters (brown bears mostly) around here lately...a little closer to home than one might like.<br />Also welcome to Pearson Report - I’m pleased you found the post appealing!<br />I too wish you a ‘grand’ September...is there any other kind?<br /><br />Tracy Jo - Welcome to Pearson Report! How exciting it is to ‘meet’ new bloggers. <br />That BBQ was something alright...I’m still full from all the wonderful dishes brought from all corners of the globe. <br />Thanks for dropping by and taking a look around.<br /><br />Ruth - It’s always a pleasure seeing your avatar...love the smile! <br />So sorry to read that you are landlocked...I don’t think that would work for me; I need water and mountains to exist. <br />I’m glad you could at least see a mermaid this way!<br /><br />KarenG - Hey Party Girl! That was some BBQ - it’s on my “must attend again next year” list. I met some very interesting people. What a clever idea that was!<br /><br />And, as to that pic in the water...well, I got big brownie points from my “little mermaid” for taking that shot! Sometimes it just comes together...that was one of those moments.<br /><br />Becca - Hey sweetie...how are you doing? I’m so glad to have you drop by and check out my girl. <br />Yes...the kids do go wild for her, that’s for sure. (even the boys)<br /><br />Life 101 - Hi! Welcome to Pearson Report. You’re right, beaches and mermaids...there is nothing better (well, maybe a nice glass of wine while sitting on the beach enjoying the sight of a mermaid sunning herself on the rocks! - Yes, I think that might be a wee bit better!)<br /><br />Carole - Hey Miss Traveller - you back, settled in and busy painting up a storm...hmm?<br />Did all those wonderful Island sights/sites stir your creative juices into a magical potion...to be consumed while wielding your brush? I can’t wait to see what’s happening over at your place.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to pop over and see my mermaid in action.<br /><br />Mynx - Hey girlfriend! Awww, so sweet, thanks for throwing ‘stunning’ in the mix...as a mom I do think the camera is kind to her - and somehow she doesn’t mind me taking a couple hundred photos in one shoot.<br />As for magical, how can a mermaid be anything but - yes...it’s lots of fun, that’s for sure!<br /><br />Al - Are we saving the best for last, Al...YES, we are! <br />I’m tickled that you popped by to take yet another look at my fishy gal! Lord knows I’ve been milking this little package for quite a while now...I wonder if she’s cottoned on! Great blogging fodder, eh!<br /><br />Alrighty, you’ve got me, what the heck is a ‘Yuenglings” huh? <br />No pink elephants...hmmm, you’re not hanging with the right peeps...I’m seeing those babies everywhere I go lately! <br /><br />HEY YOU WONDERFUL BLOGGERS - THANKS TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO DROP BY AND SAY HI...AND EVERYTHING ELSE YOU SAID TOO!<br /><br />Cheers, JennyPearson Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422640826640133140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9889100.post-22725772453076293042011-09-06T12:47:59.621-07:002011-09-06T12:47:59.621-07:00My weekend was nowhere as beautiful as yours!
