But in the larger scheme of things, you might be right. What?! You too! Beginning to look like April 54 was the fun time to be around.

I cannot manage my luggage on the train. Avoiding Uber, etc. While Crystal is paused, a close-to-home Great Lakes cruise became an option. Thank you. No need to turn this into a "research project". Once you clear Customs and Immigration and are out in the Arrivals area of the terminal, just follow the signs to Taxi/Limo. They are a flat rate to anywhere in the city, and they are clean and reliable. We use them every time we come home by air and have never had a problem.

He burst on the American scene as Hans Gruber in Diehard (the villains are always more interesting.) Ergo: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mariners Posted August 11, 2022 #2839 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Roy, I’ve been reading your old blogs and travel history to try and figure out some trips for the future.

KenzSailing Posted August 12, 2022 #2841 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Finally we are getting a break from the absolutely yucky weather we're been stuck in for the past 2-3 weeks. At 4PM it's 83Fand NO HUMIDITY, and it's forecast to stay that way throughout the weekend. So my plan is to grill my pants off (or maybe not, as the town's vice-mayor lives next door, and I don't think that's the kind of vice she would appreciate.) Tonight, something easy: it's Burger Night in America. Yes, I do call it that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a Martin’s potato roll? You weren’t kidding about the weather…. I opened the door this morning and started to panic at just how many weeks I must have been asleep last night. I forgot what it felt like to have air that didn’t feel like you’re swimming through jello as you walk. (The Maryland Office of Tourism Development obviously couldn’t sponsor me enough to make up nice things about summers here.)
