Too long for me but they don’t get to do this often so making the most of it . I totally agree! She was awesome. 13 minutes ago, Luckynana said: I always loved going to a Drive-in movie. The last time we've gone was when we used to stay at the Cabin in Smallwood, N.Y. when our daughters were younger. I guess it's been well over 35 years or more since going. Happy 18th Birthday to your grandson!!!🎈 The last time I was in a drive-in was before I was married. Whitestone drive-in, in the Bronx. No more comment is necessary 😇 @ValerieJo Happy Birthday to your grandson from me too! Such an exciting time in a young man's life. May all his birthday wishes come true. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily you got your Hallmark movie in prior to your dermatology procedure! They asked me if I was open next week and I said yes knowing full well my procedure was that week and if they called me back I would postpone the surgery.

At the beginning we were very impressed by the "innovative" approach of the delegates sailing along the Seine and the various performances at the same time. After a while, it started to be quite confusing -- too much going on at the same time. It might be us, but we gave up at the letter N 😕 I so wanted to watch this live but live here was 3am and that wasn’t going to happen Hoping I can find a full replay. Interesting that the surfing events are being held in Tahiti and due to there being no hotel at the small village at the surfing location, competitors and officials will be accommodated on board the cargo/cruise ship Arunai 5. This ship offers cruises to the remote islands of Tahiti and I am keen to experience this cruise with my daughter in the future.

NHProud Posted July 26 #126505 Share Posted July 26 @Sea Dog Greg , I hope you heal quickly . Take care of yourself. @FromSea2ShiningSea Beautiful photos . You certainly get around . That midnight sun is hard to get used to. We spent a week in Kiruna Sweden and it never got dark. Reindeer was on the menu every single day at that meeting. Didn’t appreciate it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be celebrating on Sunday. Doug and I are thinking of going to the movies tonight. We haven’t been since before Covid. I keep hearing how great the new “Twisters” movie is. Some friends saw it yesterday and loved it. I looked up showtimes and it’s actually playing at the Drive in theater. I went and bought car snacks, so I think we’re good if we decide to go. Just not sure we can stay up that late anymore. 😂 Hope everyone has a great weekend. I loved the original Twister. Twisters was only on the cinemas here for 2 weeks then it went straight to the streaming platform that we don’t have. Enjoy the drive-in - gosh that’s a throwback. Happy Birthday 18th Birthday to your grandson 🎉🎂. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted July 26 #126508 Share Posted July 26 After a week of warmer temperatures and with all the wattles blooming in Sydney it almost felt like spring this week but it’s back to winter this weekend and for the next week with snow possible a couple of hours from Sydney.

Evidently, they had to make some minor modifications. Maybe they needed a third concrete block! That is one of our favorite rides there. Is it bad that I am not surprised at all? 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any time my husband goes in the master bath Elmer jumps on the counter and demands a wet combing. He would probably take a shower with a little encouragement. Our Eva loves watching the shower than licking the water. Sometimes she will sit under the shower bench while I shower. She stays mostly dry unless I turn on the shower head on that side. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted July 27 #126514 Share Posted July 27 We had our granddaughter all day, today. We took the kids out for a short hike. and a healthy lunch. I think this is her evil look as she gets her s’mores desert. Took them to a different trampoline park. This one had a rock wall, so she worked on her climbing skills. She made it almost to the top on the second try. And where was her brother? He went to Cleveland today for the National Sports Card show. He met one of the YouTube celebrities he follows. My daughter and son-in-law said there was an insane amount of money being thrown around at the show. I guess it must be a really big deal. And the most expensive thing they saw? The Jersey that Babe Ruth wore for the Called Shot home run. Thirty million $. This article talks about the show’s five most mind blowing items. https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/pro/2024/07/25/the-national-card-show-cleveland/74543160007/ He enjoyed it so much, he is headed back tomorrow. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helen haywood Posted July 27 #126517 Share Posted July 27 Alas, I only got the one private shower. My DH feels I should accept his help when he’s here to help me. So I get to maneuver in and out by myself…but under his watchful eye. Sigh. This is like having your spouse watch you struggle to get pantyhose on or off…hard to maintain the feminine mystique… 5 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky1987 Posted July 27 #126518 Share Posted July 27 (edited) Old fashioned Friday after a tough week with one of my favorite rye mixers. Things a little bit slower at work over the past couple of months so we had to let a few people go. I always lose sleep for a couple days before and afterwhen I have to sit across a table from someone and do that, whether they deserve to be let go or not….it’s always someone with a family and a rent or mortgage to pay. Anyway, it’s Friday. Cheers my friends! Edited July 27 by Husky1987 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But currently sipping a Johnny Walker Gold which is my favorite scotch. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Happy Hour food was generally very good- chicken wings, vegetable egg rolls, pot stickers, spicy salmon sushi rolls…We hardly get to go in there though because we had early dining. The most we could spend in there was 15 minutes. I hope you have a great cruise with your family! Should be coming up soon? We also had early dining for the first time which meant we didn't visit CL during happy hour at all. Compared to last September Serenade cruise when we went nearly every day. Your photos are wonderful. We must book another Northern Europe cruise, we've only been on one and that was Celebrity. Which ship are you on ?
