We, mostly Sharon, have been babysitting her weekdays since the beginning of the year while DD works. I know that it is hard to leave pets behind while cruising but starting Monday we will not be babysitting for a month! Finnly's DD will be off the next two weeks then we leave for Hawaii for the two weeks. I bet she will grow in that time. She’s adorable. Beautiful outfit, beautiful mat & I love the sequence of photos ending up with the lovely dog too. @sgmn how lovely that your precious grandchild has the same mat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonTexasNY Posted April 14, 2023 #90877 Share Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) Speaking of Dolphins, we usually see them as our ship departs Galveston. Such a nice sight. On another note, can anyone help with the comfort of those zero gravity loungers? Are they comfy for reading with my legs up? The following is just an example of the type of lounger I mean: I went to my favorite food store Central Market today. They sell crisp NY Macintosh apples in season, in addition to real NYC pastrami. The pastrami name is Carnegie even though the famous deli in the theater district closed. The most authentic I've had in the Dallas area. Tonight's dinner will be pastrami sandwiches on crusty sourdough rye, potato salad, cole slaw, all from Central Market. NOT your usual store bought salads or bread. Trust me on this. I also bought something I had never seen before; dark chocolate covered pistachios. Unbelievably delicious. .

Lol, Jaws was filmed on Martha's Vineyard, an island off the coast of Massachusetts. You can see it when flying out of Providence when the planes are taking off in the right direction. I usually go there several times during the summer. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockland County/NJ diners are the best!! I'm not surprised at the portion size you were served. Restaurant was in Allen called numero 28, I prefer lamberti in valley ranch . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t comment on the zero gravity aspect of your chair but I use a similar type chair to read in the garden. I wish I had that click on tray for my tea etc. can’t read without a cup of tea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reviews look good. It's time we got one of these pool cleaners..we're not getting any younger😜 I can't speak about the Barracuda but for our pool in Cincinnati, we had a Dolphin Nautilus pool cleaner. It worked great. Throw it in and press a button. No suction hose needed. It was very good at getting itself unstuck from stairs and corners, and would climb the walls to clean the tiles at water level. We use a pool service here. Everyone seems to just hire a service for their pool and their lawn. The previous owners had an automatic cleaner that's on a shelf in our garage, but I've never tried it. Edit: FWIW...the unused pool cleaner in our garage is a Polaris Vac-Sweep 360. Edited April 14, 2023 by bobmacliberty 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a transplated northerner and therefore far from a grits expert, but basic grits seem to be white. They change color depending on what you put in them. The shrimp and grits recipes that I've had often use a brown sauce or gravy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do you and Andy head to Venice and then Barcelona for your Mediterranean Cruise? Not until late September. We have our family Disney trip the third week of August and are taking the two oldest grandsons on a 3 night cruise out of PC on Independence the weekend prior. It’s their first cruise (Mom & Dad have zero interest), I’m not sure who’s more excited - them or us! As far as pool cleaners, at our previous house we had a Polaris which was fine but it had a little mesh bag that collected debris but if you left the bag out, squirrels would eat through it. This pool we have a Hayward. I know nothing about them, but my ‘pool boy’ says he loves it; does a great job cleaning and doesn’t get stuck in corners, stairs, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
