Is that price for a suite? It's when you put that 3rd person in the room, they almost double the price of the room. This was the lowest priced room for 3 people they listed........May 28th through May 30th. Queen Junior Suite with Executive Benefits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arzeena Posted July 24, 2023 #99056 Share Posted July 24, 2023 As I was reading about Greg's new pet bat, a guy was working on screening my patio/lanai. A little frog managed to hop into the lanai while the guy was still working😨. DH had to coax and shoo him out of the door. The frog looked really cute riding on the broom and jumping out into the grass. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly it was not. Even when we first went it, it didn't have that momentarily chill. Maybe it's a shallow lake that warms up quickly?

We have those little tree frogs also and they're VERY noisy at night. I assume it's some sort of mating call as we've captured them at night by our pool and put them into the wooded area next to us, and some were in a "compromising position". 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted July 24, 2023 #99071 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Subaru outback battery died yesterday. 60mins for roadside assist. Then told that the battery in our model Subaru is not standard so it couldn’t be replaced by roadside assist battery service. Roadside assist re-started car and told me to drive straight to my mechanic, making sure that the engine is not turned off. Mechanic advised that he stocks batteries just for my car model and that of my work colleague’s Diesel Subaru outback model. For some reason, Subaru designed these models with battery placements in a different position and different size to standard. Battery life is 5 years.

I am watching the women's world cup football where it is Germany 2 Morocco 0 at half time. I hope everyone is safe and well. Fabulous to see the media coverage and the massive crowds for the two WOMEN’S World Cup soccer games being held here in Sydney. Glad you are finally seeing sun Graham after all that rain. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted July 24, 2023 #99073 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Been trying to keep up with this thread and Andrew’s, but haven’t posted for the last couple days. We were out to a festival Saturday, and I forgot to put grandson’s hat in the car. Fortunately, I found one in that car. I hadn’t seen that hat for some time. Desert was delicious. Of course, PGA Junior grandson had a match, and his team won. He played really well. I finally let Susan back out in public, so we were walking to get her strength built back up. Saw this family. And finally, we had to do a little cat sitting yesterday. I think we are somewhat reliable, at least where Ricky is concerned. Tomorrow, we are off to Kennywood Amusement park again, just because Susan missed out last week. 26 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been very helpful to everyone I have referred to contact. I’m probably one of the few people left who requests brochures and maps from the Con Vis bureau of the city I’m going to visit. The NYC office used to be across the street from the Sheraton. I’ve received brochures from Cocoa Beach , Fla.

It will start moving around when the sun goes down. Aside from some rabies issues, bats are not bad creatures. They eat loads of misquitos. If you were in the same room as a bat while you were asleep, the default assumption is that you were bitten (bat bites can be so small that they don't leave any visible mark on the skin), and rabies treatment plus rabies vaccination gets started in the Emergency Department. Because the treatment is weight-based, the bigger the person, the more shots they get. My record is seven shots in one visit, and I've only been working there for three months. Stay away from bats, folks! 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
