10/24/2009 Bash On the Boat (I'm with BOB) - Thread #8

Matthew, I don't think they offer the bridge tour anymore, unless things have changed recently.

You can get an idea of what's planned on the cruise if you look at the navigator's. There is a link to them on the BOB site. It won't be exact but very close to what ours will be.

Thanks Cass,

Well goodnight everybody. I'm going to go upstairs and wish Beth a happy anniversary. At midnight, it will be our 19th Wedding Anniversary.

Not a huge celebration this year. (The cruise in May was justified in part as an early anniversary present. But I do have a couple of small surprises in store...

Anniversary FO!

 

[JLDSMD]

We'll be looking for family friendly beaches at both stops.

You won't have to travel far in St. Maarten. There is one right in town at the ferry pier.

In St. Thomas, go to Meghan's. BTW, St. T also has an aquarium if you wanted to take the kids there.

O.K., it is 11:00 my time and I'm still 10 pages back. I'm going to bed.

I'll try to catch up tomorrow.

We all know the UK won't post much before we wake up.

Before the UK folks get on line, very shortly, I'm jumping in to give it one last Western Hemisphere hello, good night , and a good morning . This may not be a FO but it will be the first good morning. Ok UK posters, go for it and add on some pages so JLDSMD has more than 10 pages to catch up on.

Good morning back to you Chris. I was actaully up around the time of this post, just not online. Now I'm dead tired with less than 5 hours of sleep.

Glad to see Karen posted a lot for us to read this morning.

The bridge tours now are by special invitation only. Once the gym area was enlarged, the old bridge tours were stopped.

Andy,

Sorry, I didn't read this until now. Sorry to hear about your friends daughter. That has to be awful. Did she just graduate?

Actually, it was the daughter of one of Hazel's sisters friends, I really didn't know the girl who died, but I did know of the girl's mother. I'm not even sure if the girl finished school, from what Hazel said, she was pretty heavy into drugs. Hazel said the girl's boyfriend tried to get into the funeral home yesterday and was met there by police and taken away. I'm glad I stayed home.

Hi There Jeff--I had to take Lina to the community center this morning so she could get her workout in. I should have stayed there with her, but I have enough walking around to do today, especially since I took off yesterday. I'll have to leave shortly to pick her up so I can come back home and get ready for work.

Yes, that is right.

Are you going to Eastbound Panama Cruise on August?

Wow, I'm impressed that your ST is up that early during the summer.

You probably should have stayed and worked out Andy. You'll just be running back there anyways after she done. But yes, you do, do a lot of walking on your job. I just sit all day and it definitely shows.

I did cut the grass with the walk behind last night, does that count? I'll have to calculate out how far I walk when I do that. My lawn mower has a 22" cut and my yard is approximately 158' x 258', without taking off for the house, drive or any gardens. It took forever, but with the ground/grass getting dry, I didn't want to take the rider/tractor out. The weight of it bends the grass too much and you see the lines from it for weeks. I may continue to cut by hand in the front the rest of summer. Gives it a better look. Don't care much about the back, only 2 neighbors can see that.

OK, just did some quick math, using only the gross area of my yard, it would be 141 passes at 158' per pass, so 22,278 feet. Given a mile is 5,280 feet, that would make it 4.2 miles gross. Take off for the house, drive, patio, and gardens, probably about 3 miles net (figure take 1/3 off, but that would error lower). Not a bad walk twice a week. However, it took way too long.

Morning Mel.

Good luck today at the new job. Hope all goes well.
