My mouth is already watering. Here, as you know, there's construction all over the place. So many changes and growth here. I love how when I go back "home" nothing has changed. It's always the same happy place I grew up and got to know until our move to TX. Having said that, both my husband and I now love living in a place where we usually have to wear heavy winter coats only once every 10 years. 🤣 I just hope we don't have another freezing spell like the one we had in February. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend that has two of them. He stacks a couple convertibles above other cars, and is able to fit 6 vehicles in a 4 car garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted July 15, 2021 #22832 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I found a little bit of local whiskey rivalry. There's a restaurant on Amelia Island called The Sandbar that claims to have the largest whiskey selection in Northeast Florida. When golfing in the Ponte Vedra Beach area a couple of days ago, we ate at a place called V Pizza. They had a very impressive 2 story wall of whiskey (wish I had taken a picture). When the waiter heard us talking about The Sandbar having the largest selection, he immediately called BS, saying that The Sandbar includes things like Fireball and Crown Apple that he said are definitely NOT whiskey. For pure whiskey, THEY have the largest selection. He was very adamant. That shows you how popular whiskey has become. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted July 15, 2021 #22833 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Part 1 of our day is finished, and gearing up for more fun tonight. Today, we went to a relatively new animal park called Keystone Safari. First stop was in the butterfly house. Lots of Monarchs in there. They will land in your hand Or on the back of granddaughter’s shirt. The advantage of getting there early is the place is empty. These little cutouts to feed the goats were hilarious Part of the course to the zip line, which we didn’t do today. They did have some bounce houses that the kids used, as if they didn’t get enough bounces yesterday. And granddaughter had to have a pony ride. One nice thing is you can get a wristband that lets them replenish feed for the animals. Feeding some reindeer. And feeding giraffes Getting close to the lion The boys loved the animated bugs they have. IMG_0487.MOV And to finish part 1 off, there is a Primanti Brothers less than 2 miles from the park. The first one of these I have had in over a year. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then packed up 3 coolers of cookies that had to be kept cool. And 3 bins of other cookies. Packed up car. Off to twinsburg. Needed 4 tables to have then nicely set up. ready to put on tables Saturday when they come out of cooler. Organized centerpieces for florist on Saturday. Then I had to P So as I am in a private moment my cell phone goes off loud noise like a tornado warning. And it is counting down 10 9 8 and the phone announced that all my emergency contacts will be notified when count down complete. Now I am fumbling trying to turn it off when the phone rings. It is the 911 call center in twinsburg Ohio. I had to verify I was ok. They were very thorough in there questions and realized it was a mistake. They told me to be more careful in future. I don’t know how it happened. Turned my phone off till I got home. Time for 🍷 Stay safe. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were stuck and I was holding half the weight of the sofa. I couldn't let go of the sofa. I must have bumped my Apple Watch hard enough that it thought I had fallen and was counting down to a 911 call. My daughter scrambled under the sofa to press the button to cancel the call just in time. I wondered what would have happened if she had not cancelled the call in time. Now I know. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have grandkids yet, but I know the idea as a grandparent is to spoil your grandchildren and then hand them back to their parents. If I was your grandkid (I'm still available for adoption), I don't think I'd want to leave. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love their wood fired pizzas, and their flour, tomatoes, cheeses, etc come from Italy. They also make a pretty good Italian Roast Beef. Not quite as good as in Chicago, but good.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted July 16, 2021 #22850 Share Posted July 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Sea Dog said: Storm coming? It just missed us. We got the game in though with a 5-2 loss. The league is “messed up” this year, thanks to Covid, so teams are playing other teams that are comparable but not equal and from centre’s we don’t usually play. Tonight’s game was against a better AA centre and kids a year older. They were exceptionally rough and pushy. By the end of the game two of their players had yellow cards, one a direct red and their coach had a direct red card too. One of our players got a yellow for pushing back. We only play them once more towards the end of the season. Happy not to see them for a while. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
