FromSea2ShiningSea Posted May 11, 2023 #93377 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Well, it’s over. All good things must come to an end. We said our goodbyes with our CC friends that we enjoyed meeting so much. We now have great memories of them until we meet again. This morning’s sunrise in Vancouver Cruising under Lion’s Gate Bridge How fun it was to run into Pat @taznremmy,. We are now sitting at our gate ready to board for flight home. 22 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love real estate so I'll be following what you see and decide. I considered northern calif but decided too far from airports etc. I looked around before I decided cape Canaveral or cocoa beach. I love Hawaii and the ocean and mountains..lived there 10 years. So also know the downside. No place is perfect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree nothing is perfect, I like a lot of the things about Dallas weather is nice real estate was really cheap when we bought, but as a fairly liberal person, dislike all politicians at the state level, nobody believes in gun control even with more mass killings all the time and most are racist. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJSailors Posted May 12, 2023 #93388 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Graham-You have a lovely place to relax. I do understand about family divisions. I can’t understand when they happen and, I admit to being envious (a little bit) of families that have strong bonds, being happy with each other. When DH’s father passed in 2007, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law made it clear to us that they wanted to sever familial ties with us. MIL severed ties with her brother and sister many years before she did the same to us. So, she had the pattern of having hardness of heart. My DH has a forgiving nature, so he has forgiven his mother ( who passed in 2009) and his sister. However,sometimes I have difficulty with their actions as I know they hurt my husband. Thankfully, we have lifelong friends who are family and we go on with our days. I think that you and Pauline have found consolation with the relationship with Sara, and she finds comfort from the love and support you give her. While I realize no one has a perfect life, it seems that you and Pauline have a good life filled with love. I can say the same for DH and myself. Take care MJ🙋🏻♀️ 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJSailors Posted May 12, 2023 #93389 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Dani-I am saddened to hear that violence has erupted near your home again. Absolutely nothing can be gained by such actions, yet there are people in our world that continue to cause devastating harm. I am hoping that issues can be resolved and that you, your DH and family and friends can have peaceful days soon. I think everyone on this thread appreciates hearing from you. Maybe it is a consolation for you to know that so many people from different countries and different walks of life have you all in our thoughts and all wish relief for you. Take care MJ🙋🏻♀️ 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was perfect weather. As soon as we turned off ship wifi we couldn't get cellular. Our plane was delayed 25 minutes, Delta. We are about to fly out of Houston. It was really a very long walk/run from Gate E to B. Just made it! The trip was a perfect time though it seems like yesterday with left our house April 27th. Fun time. I loved all the people we got to meet on the cruise. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lunch took like 2 hours. We had a Crew Connection Show to go to that was at 2:30 and we hadn’t even served dessert yet. We were sitting there waiting for so long so we just asked for it to-go. And that was the only time I saw Apple Blossom on the menu. Other times it was apple crumble which is not the same We went there for lunch just for the apple blossom. Should’ve just ordered that, I guess. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Idaho might be the answer but this turned into a big waste of time. I'm leaving tomorrow. The search continues... Good luck. Like most other New Yorker's, I've considered moving someplace cheaper and warmer. But then I go thru my list of attributes as well. I like 4 seasons of equal length which eliminates the southern half of the county. I would like to be within a one day drive of an ocean which eliminates the entire mid-west. I like to hike with some elevation so there needs to be decent sized hills, not necessarily mountains but more than gentle rolling hills. That eliminates a lot of flat states that have already been eliminated. Nothing against West Coast but it is far from my family here on the East Coast. So I think I'm down to staying in NY, or moving to Pennsylvanian, New Hampshire, Virginia or Tennessee. That last one surprised me. Apparently depending on where in the state you live, the ocean is within a one day drive. Well, at least the Gulf of Mexico which is the ocean with smaller waves And Nashville Predators are my 2nd favorite team after the Rangers.😉 Edited May 12, 2023 by HBE4 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
