Slainte57 Posted January 12 #26 Share Posted January 12 Hopping onboard🎉 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BohJang Posted January 12 #27 Share Posted January 12 I'm here. Leaving work at noon to drop my dog off at the vet for boarding. Then packing begins. But it's supposed to be a hard freeze here in Bryan, TX starting Sunday and I'm trying to figure out what to do about the pipes and the tankless hot water heater. I'm feeling a bit stressed about this. Our flight leaves Houston Hobby tomorrow at 11:00 AM to Miami. My brother will be picking us up at the airport and he made reservations at some swanky Italian restaurant in Palm Beach for dinner tomorrow night. We will stay at his house for the night and he will drive us to the pier Sunday morning! Can't wait. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommapadraig Posted January 12 #28 Share Posted January 12 @BohJang safe travels. I’d love to go to a swanky Italian restaurant! We are in Mission and also expecting a freeze. Our neighbors are still in Iowa so we picked their oranges for them today. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TravelE Posted January 12 #32 Share Posted January 12 @BohJang you can let a few faucets barely drip and make sure you open cabinet doors where pipes are located along exterior walls OR you can turn off the main water supply to the house and then open all faucets to drain them. Thanks for the reminder, I need to drain my landscape sprinkler pipes!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or cutting power to the hot water heater and turning off your water at the meter and draining the pipes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyJA Posted January 12 #38 Share Posted January 12 (edited) All checked into my flight for tomorrow with Alaska. Usually people grab the exit rows seats now because the prices go down after check in time starts. But for some reason only one out of six exit seats have been purchased.😉 Edited January 12 by AmyJA 8 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember the good 'ol days of writing in cursive. the good news is that if we don't want the kids to know what we're writing, we can just write in "code" (ie: in cursive!) 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum " Friends of Cruise Critic" Topic - "The Tribe" A guy from Atlanta, nicknamed sid_9169, writes fun reviews, developed a following. The friendships survived COVID, etc. This is the first time a bunch of them are cruising together. Lots of us couldn't come on the cruise but feel connected. Really neat group of people. Welcome!
