Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 17, 2021 #5876 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Sadly we would have been boarding Freedom today in San Juan. I starting about it on Friday, and yesterday. Yesterday would have been fly day. Oh well, at least we have hockey and football to watch. Laundry as well. I wonder what would Lisa do if I threw the towels on the floor?🤪 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted January 17, 2021 #5877 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) It has been a nice sunny morning. It was 34f and frost on the car windscreen at 9am which I cleared before we went to church. Afterwards we got a veggie wrap,a spicy chicken wrap and a coffee from McDonald's then drove a mile to the beach car park to eat them then get some exercise. It is 44f now and sunny.

Even on a cold day I love to walk on/near a beach. That sounds like a wonderful day. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a cold weather fan. Yeah, but still like having a change of season. Hot, hot..and more hot with all the humidity in the summer year round...not for me. 😉 Bucky, however is a true "sun lizard" and loves the heat. I am guessing you are from the Panhandle? We love...love the Panhandle. Would adore to live there, but agree, bit too cold for us. And too far from the cruise ports...though that is definitely not an issue right now. 😞 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son lives and hour and a half from us which is why we moved here. He lives by the water but we needed more land so moved to a more rural area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Panhandle has hands down the most beautiful beaches anywhere! We are once again scheduled to enjoy the state parks there, my favorite being Grayton Beach. Pure white powdered sugar sand, clear aqua marine water, and gorgeous walks down the beach. Other plus is kayaking...some of the best fresh water springs anywhere. Blackwater river one of our favorite state parks as well. Love those pretty sand sides for pull out along the river for picnics. 🤗 My baby..."Miss Scarlet" (she is a sweet and sassy southern Belle) and has a great front compartment for picnic cooler. 😉 Edited January 17, 2021 by island lady 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the sadness. Eric BD cruise for march 28th was cancelled so next one to hope for is oasis on may 23rd. Then alaska end of june. Not feeling good about either of them, but one can hope and dream. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine3601 Posted January 17, 2021 #5891 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Good news, yesterday I was able to register for his jab of vaccine. I'm not available till phase 3 and that will be sometime between march and june is what our dept of health is saying. I was hoping since I am married to a high risk person I could get sooner but nothing being said about that. He cannot drive due to broken arm so when I take him I'll ask them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High 90's low 100's doesn't bother me. I'm always outside doing something. But it's a dry heat as we have very low humidity. This morning it was 19 degrees. Burrr.

dani negreanu Posted January 17, 2021 Author #5894 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) We're celebrating today (4th lock down...) our 48th wedding anniversary, and DH b'day 😁 The boys sent me flowers and for DH, who likes to cook, a weird "contraption", meant to "house" different herbs (drill, basil, coriander, mint), while worms, fed by us from leftovers, will provide the compost....

Hate it!! 🤬 Yup, agree..I think you are indeed brothers. 😉 Bucky is a big whimpy baby when it gets cold though. 🥶 He is also always outside, working away in the yard or garage in even the worst heat and humidity. We spent most of this last summer here due to Covid, versus going to Maine as usual. Normally I like to get out of the summer heat...so I was queen of the house, doing my chores inside the A/C. Plus having been cut on four times due to "El Sol" shining on me a bit too much when I was young...I am not a sun goddess. 😮 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaniDanielle Posted January 17, 2021 #5897 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I love the heat, don’t know how I got stuck in New York. This past summer was great for me, my daughters also, as we love to outside.🌞 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could always borrow Bucky's "bonnie hat". He'll know what I'm talking about. I still have mine. Kathy is a blonde with fair skin. She has high blood pressure (that's what she gets for hooking up with me 🤣) so being in the direct heat and sun for any length of time wears her out. Escaping to the A/C is always a reward for sure. Well that and having a couple of cold ones🍻 sitting under the covered patio on the patio chilling out. And speaking of Sol, I do like that beer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I think about moving back there someday since my family are all still up the the NE , but right now I am freezing and it's 61 degrees so don't know that I could do that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to sell that Beer when I worked for the wine/beer and liquor distributor. 😉 Bucky hates Corona...calls it "Mexican monkey piss". LOL...(eeek...flames are coming at me for that one..need fireproof suit!) 😜 He loves Sol, and almost all the other brands though. Me too, like Kathy...fair skinned green eyed blonde...and ditto on taking the dreaded high blood pressure meds. I love my big floppy hats! Wear them all the time in ports we visit. 😄 Bucky's hat blew off right into the river in St. Lucia. Bummer...sank right away. He doesn't wear them often. Speaking of hats...he still has a Vietnam hard hat...the one made of straw I think it is. And yes...he knows about the Boonie hats. 😁 Edited January 17, 2021 by island lady 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
