Solarium pool is currently closed on Mariner due to stowaways. Mmmm...bring on the honey!! Found this situation at a gas station once. The separate RV pump station had a huge, very active hive that pretty much developed overnight, supposedly. Had to go in and point it out to the employees inside....who were clueless. Naturally no one was fueling up there. 😮 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of my exNY friends and those I meet originally from NY, tawwk just like me. 😁 Jack is in the USA over 50 years and still sounds like an Israeli in Tel Aviv. He introduces himself as "Jock" and people think he's French. 🤣 Do you remember Katz’ Furniture from Orchard Street ? I just ordered furniture from them . Remember when I asked if you remembered my cousins store,Harris Levy Linens.They were at 278 Grand St.from 1894 to about 10 years ago.They are now on Forsyth St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a headliner from a few years ago. I think he was the lead singer for Foreigner, if my memory is correct. If that's true, it may have been Kelly Hansen. I remember that he sang a few classic rock songs but his act covered a variety of music types and I think he even played an instrument...maybe the clarinet?? We thought he was talented and his act was OK, but I was hoping for more classic rock. Anyone else remember this and can refresh my memory? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Momof3gurlz Posted October 13, 2021 #33825 Share Posted October 13, 2021 @DaniDanielle so glad to hear the MRI results were good news. I think I’ll have a glass of wine for you tonight! Good progress being made on the new deck. We head to Cooperstown NY on Friday with middle DD, SIL and 2 granddaughters. DD & SIL have a wedding there Saturday night, we’re the traveling babysitters LOL. We rented a house thru the “air” place ( wasn’t sure I could say it here). The weather doesn’t look great but it should be a pretty drive out there. I was surprised but happy my Red Sox beat out Tampa Bay in the division series. Seems like maybe Tampa Bay’s over confidence that they’d take it may have lit a fire under the Sox. I don’t see them beating Houston, but I said the same about TB 🤷🏻♀️. We are having a gorgeous stretch of weather here in RI this week. Mid 70’s and the trees are starting to turn. Very belated Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrated Monday. @A&L_Ont that meal looked fantastic & makes me want to roast a turkey. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
