Re: lesson learned. Really.

It IS truly a fun story, and glad to entertain with it. We laughed til we cried , and " we have seen the mongoose" became a euphemism for " we have good luck"!

Re: A special Forumite

We hold a special place in our hearts for those serving in harm's way. Tracy and her care packages are a wonderful way to show we remember them! We , too are part of a care pkg routine. Nice to hear it's widely enjoyed.
Thank you.

Re: That's not good...

Ummmm
Yeah
I qualify as one unfamiliar with the roads as I'll be driving for the first time on Saturday! Whereabouts is this 2 mile stretch? I was gonna take centerline from the ferry over to coral bay. I'd hate to start off by falling off the road. Might make a mark. :shock:

Re: Vacation with adult children

Well- Abacos and the surrounding waters are indeed calm and lovely - great for piddling around in your own boat. We flew into treasure cay- easy via Miami - but nothing cheap on air lately that works for us out of little rock ( stayed at the lovely Bahamas beach club) Boated over to great guana cay ...

Re: Vacation with adult children

Just returned from the Big Island. Amazing. Spent 2 nights in Volcano to hike and explore around the rainforest and volcano. What a fab place ! Such contrasts of environments there. You hike thru the fern forest and then across a crater floor ( steam rising ) all within 4 mile hike. Check out the or...

I had the impression from prior posts that ya'll were using them to call back home to mainland, too. That 2$ plan seems like the way to go! Thanks for info-this forum has been a...
