About This Item

KIM: "Hooray! Its Wings and Beer time again, I'm practically going through withdrawl because of missing the last one. Can't wait to see everyone. I would like to say "I will be there with bells on" but it just occurred to me that I'm not sure where I'm supposed to wear the bells?, so I'll just show up the normal way.
PS to the etymology freaks out there...I believe the origin of the bells phrase comes from a reference to sleigh bells, as in:"when we arrive you will hear us coming, we will have our bells on the sleigh" If anyone is knowledgable on this subject please let me know so that I can buy the right size!"Kim



RJ FERRET: "You aren't purporting to be an ox now are you?
If you are, then you wear the bells on your yoke...
As for size, large enough so when someone helps pull your Conestoga wagon out of the mud, giving them one of your bells will be adequate compensation for the service, and any remaining bells will be loud enough to announce your arrival at the tavern!
Looking forward to hearing your approach...(among others of course...)" --Randy

First TB for my wife. We found it on our last cache of the day (and our only success. She thought it was pretty cool. We'll send it on its way today.

So, it took us a little while to make in out on the town, but we finally did. Texas Loosey's was the bar of choice for us. We had our pictures taken with the girls working there, but unfortunately, those didn't come out. Sorry about that, I'm sure someone would have liked to have seen the scantilly clad girls. Well, you'll have to go there yourself, now. Thanks for the fun night!

Grabbed from a moving cache and will most likely put it in a cache that is not moving.

Grabbed the the Golden Cow Bell from "As the Sun Sets". Will probably take it to an event cache and see if we can move it along in a big way.

Well, what a busy day today for the ole bell. Today it has visited and pictures taken at the Americas Original Sports Bar, and with the Hooters girls at the Mall of America. Tomorrow we're going to try and get to "Prince"s' night club and get a photo op there before we drop it at another cache. The bell is sharing space right now with Darth Vader TB which is coming home to Massachusetts on Wednesday.
