Happy Tuesday! My husband and I have a chance at fame. They are filming a Christmas movie in Gettysburg, which is close by us and they are looking for people willing to be cast as extras. You know, the people who are walking the streets or in restaurant, etc.We read how one of the spots they are filming at is a historical restaurant that we have been to before. It is a really good restaurant and it was a part of the underground railroad. You can explore the part of the building where they hid the slaves, after or before your meal. Anyway IF, which is a big if, we get to participate as “extras”, I will be sure to let you know and don’t worry, I won’t let the fame go to my head. I hope your week is going well and that you enjoy the following quotes. That they bring a smile and a bounce to your step.

We enjoyed it when we had them. They all had their own characters and we had over 1200 eggs in the time we had them. Nothing like fresh eggs for baking cake!

I absolutely love the seagull with the french fry, and the Bugs Bunny (crazy mind — that’s ME) ones. I can relate to the crazy chicken lady one, after just seeing the price of eggs as I was placing my weekly grocery order! But of course you know which is my favourite … that final one, a quote I use often enough. So true … MLK was a wise and compassionate man. I miss him still. So, Happy Wednesday, dear friend!

Thanks! I look forward to the movie because of recognizing the town and the places in it. And being an extra would make it even more special. 🙂 But thinking the ones who actually live in Gettysburg will be more likely to be chosen.

Tip #1 for the Audition ~> ACT as if YOU are doing THEM a FAVOR by deigning to be in their movie.
Tip #2 ~> IF Tip #1 doesn’t work, bounce up and down on your toes, waving your arms, singing, “Pick Me! Pick Me!”
Tip #3 ~> WHEN you get the part, ACT as happy as a Seagull eating a French Fry and march around saying “Mine. Mine. Mine.”
Good Luck!

Honestly, I have good, solid thoughts to share about your post, but by the time I read through all of the other comments (especially those by those whose names will remain anonymous at this point in time), I get caught up in the silliness and forget what I was thinking. I have always had an interest in the underground railroad, and thought it would be fabulous is some travel company would plot out trip from west to east with stops at EVERY place where one can see the sights where those people had to travel. Might be a 2 or 3 day trip, considering a straight drive back across the state to return, but I’d love to take it!

That would be a fun trip to make, I agree! If you ever come to Gettysburg I will take you to Dobbins house. 🙂
I can see how you get distracted with the comments. LOL! Scroll down to the bottom first to post your comment, then read all the comments. I have to do that on the blogs of the certain people whose names you didn’t mention. 😂
