How is everyone this morning?    Seems like the rains have finally left and the nice weather will slowly move back in - 60&#39;s today, 70&#39;s tomorrow and high 80&#39;s by the weekend.    Guess it&#39;s time to really scrub all the summer furniture clean and see if we need new cushions this year.   <br /><br />Jim - love the pictures but I guess I&#39;m a cruise snob - like my ships just a little bit fancier than those.<br /><br />Ed - I&#39;m with Roe - roughing it is staying in a 2 star hotel - never out with Mother Nature.<br /><br />Steve - Hopefully by the end of this cruise you will be getting cards from many jewelers along the way.   lol <br /><br />Jackie - how&#39;s the packing coming?    When do you actually leave for Ca?  Hope your back is doing OK today.<br /><br />Martha - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Lee.   Hope you have the Spiderman cake all baked and ready for him.   Wish him a Happy day from Jim &amp; I.<br /><br />Rose - Good Luck to DS on the purchase of his first Condo.<br /><br />James - Even having no job to rush off to in the AM I feel so rushed if I oversleep.   Hope Donna had a good day after not getting up on time.<br /><br />Falina, Carmen, Shari, Joey, Debbie, Andrea, Cheryl and anyone else I may have inadvertently left off - have a great day.   Time to throw in some laundry and then perhaps work out in the yard for a bit.   The ground is still wet so hopefully I can get some weeding done (my least favorite job)<br /><br />Be back later.
