On New Year's Day 2014 I went to San Clemente to the Ota's Open House When I arrived Nancy was out in the cul-de-sac helping her grand children make huge bubbles using a home made contraption composed of two dowels, some heavy string and a metal washer. I wish I had taken a picture of it.
There is a long skinny bubble here that shows just below the car. But the real reason I include this picture is because of the shadows - Nancy's shadow in the middle holding the bubble maker and my shadow in the lower right (with my camera shadow sticking out like a weird nose). The pan holds the Dawn detergent/glycerin mix for the bubbles. Google "Giant Bubbles" for information to make your own!
Here is an irregular bubble ready to be release when it will become more round.
Two rolling together uphill in the breeze.
It was such a fun thing to do. I would still like to try it one day!

I've never tried those big bubbles, but now that I'm about to become a grandma I'll have to brush up on it!
Sherrie - I've never used this feature,Let me know if you read this.
I believe that Nancy found instructions for this online. Maybe Google "Big Bubbles" or "Blowing big bubbles" ."Huge bubbles". something like that.. The kids enjoyed them, but the guys turned it into a competition, as guys will do... Del
