JMQ, you are making me want to plan a trip to Kauai! We really liked it too. You're pictures are stunning!

Terry, that is horrible. Mexico is tempting because it is beautiful and cheap. But Mexico is too out of control and there is too much going on recently in the "tourist" areas. I am not going either, darn it!

Terry, my sympathies and prayers for your friend.

P-600 and Loria, can you tell me more about post card inn?? I am just starting to research it. It looks like it will be a lot less hectic and crowded. I LOVE that.

I love the way they decorate!

I need a second--and 3rd opinion and, . . . . all opinions are appreciated!

can you look at this property on VRBO. Without knowing the area I really don't know if the location is ok. There aren't any reviews and that concerns me a little.

VRBO Listing #409616

Thank you Loria, INfamily, and Iprof for the help!! AND, thank you, Iprof for the welcome. That means a lot. I tried getting a reservation at Don CeSar and they are booked but the have a sister property that has a suite open. I really do put a lot of weight on the way reservations are handled. I rea...

Thank you, Loria.

I am sorta thinking (gasp!!) about going to trade winds. That is probably stupid considering we don't like the touristy places and trade winds screams touristy. I need to make a decision soon.

I will check out Don Cesar's. I haven't found a lot of help on TA.

TY!

I know a lot of you like Key West and wondered if there is anyone on our forum who goes to Saint Pete beach. You know we LOVE St. John. But, we can only get away for 3 days and the flights are too spendy and too long to go to St. John for 3 days. ): So, does anyone go? Will we be happy? Is it crowde...

Carolyn, I am so sorry. You are in my thoughts and prayers. My heart is breaking for you.

Right, Janet. I guess I am always breaking forum rules. I saw the new thread but few, if any, of these recipes were included. I thought people would be interested. Specifically, people who did not know about the old cookie thread. My bad. Thank you Lindy for posting.

Bumping for newbies

It is that time of year so I searched for the old cookie thread. I love Lindy's tips for freezing! Last year I froze a few and baked them on Christmas Day. My family loves them fresh out of the oven.

Happy baking!

That's beautiful! I am looking forward to seeing the pictures but I can't help because I don't post pictures very often either. I think you have to get the picture description then press img and paste the pictures address between img and (img).

Loria, I don't have any answers. I just wanted to tell you to "ramble" away! It is understandably scary and stressful. Stay safe. Please keep us posted.

Ron, I love getting the cups and refilling. Can I refill with anything other than pop? I would love water refills and I have read there aren't any water fountains. Also, Ron, or anyone who has gone with Stuarts . . . how is the ride to their location. The reviews all say it is a 30+ minute drive. Is...

It is so hard to see someone we love have any type of problem. I hope the tests give you good news! Stay positive!! I have said a prayer for your Mom.

Wow! Great tips! The advice you gave is exactly what I was looking for. I was going to stop at the store for water and pop but I will just get a cup at the self serve place and use that. I will still want water for the room but I won't lug the bottles along to the pool. I was worried about the imper...
