Something About Nothing ... #12

Everyone seems to be having car issues of one sort another, My wife's van included. Sounds like everyone is getting the issues sorted.
@macraven Another reason to fly:wrecks on 75 near Ocala and then Gainesville. We,and another family following us home, went ahead and exited in Gainesville to let the kids do their thing and eat. As we tried to get back 75 the ramp was shut down because of another wreck. Had to go through Gainesville and head north to rejoin 75. Gainesville always seems to have wrecks on 75 lately. Anyway, a 6 hour trip turned into 11....
I hate going through the gainesville exits. I get white knucke and super aware of my surroundings in that stretch. That's where we were backed up several miles due to I75 being closed in April.
Glad you all got home safely despite the delay! Our 4 hour trip took 6 or 7, so you have me "beat"
 
@keishashadow I'll grill you a steak. How far away are you again? Happy Birthday!!!

@macraven If you want to pick up your house and move it for a few days we're getting waterboarded down here. It's been raining non-stop almost since I left my parents yesterday. Further north at the GA line we're getting some heavy rain, but it's not constant. When I was driving home the ditches were already full from a few flooding rain falls in small amounts of time this weekend. Now they just have torrential downpours constantly.... There's a low stalled over the gulf. I'm sure my renters are not very happy right now.
 
That is great King won the gold medal. She's a bright star on the women's swim team, and deservedly so. Didn't know she was a local girl to you Robo.

She graduated from same high school (Reitz High School in Evansville, IN) as granddaughter. Granddaughter pointed her out to me at their senior honor awards night and told me Lilly was training for Olympics. Lilly received scholarship to IU according to granddaughter. Just so nice to see local girl do well. She is not only a great swimmer, she is a very smart young lady.

She was on front page of local newspaper this morning.

Steaks still frozen = hoagies & pizza, works for me lol. More time to marinate those bad boys.

Andy - deatheaters! Should I be thinking along lines of scareactors in the Japanese parks? Cool idea none-the-less.

Hey mrs bluer, almost ready for October?

TD - local news showed folks filling up sandbags with woes of storms to hit FL gulf coast this week, assume it's the same system that is dumping on you. Curious, do you keep a supply of board games for guests? The one time we did a beach house was so happy to see a shelf full of fun that helped to keep everyone occupied. How hot is it there now?

Ordered one of the annoying personal mister fans for GD, will turn my head the other way when she mistakenly nails passerby's:rolleyes1. Heck there's times I beg a kid in line to nail me with theirs. Feeling desperate, picking up a couple of those cooling towels on Amazon. The frog togs are odd, get stiff as a board. Going with ones that fit into a pouch/carabiner (Syourself), instructions to wet, then snap & supposed to cool for 3 hrs. I'd settle for 2 :sunny:
 
Keisha, got a cooling towel from Walmart, and it was cheap, and worked surprisingly well this past weekend. Kept it in ice water, rung out, and DD used. We dried it out, and not stiff at all. It was large too.

Hoagies and pizza are a great birthday dinner. Chinese for us, not feeling like cooking.

Since there is a section of dementors that was turned off in FJ before the ride opened, I doubt we'll get true scareactors anywhere need Potterland. I think it will be more spooky pretend threatening or something? IDK, the details were just released. They made it sound more like a show than anything. But Japan and Singapore both have their own HHN's. And Singapore's especially sounds really awesome this year (if for the fact there are no IP's, if I may be a little snarky)

you will hear me howl if no IP houses. Popularity aside, IMO it's easier & cheaper way out to follow a movie's plot. That said I'd love to go back to Racoon City & another Resident Evil house. New movie trailer out today.

Ooh I forgot, they have the stage there, would be very interesting to see them even mount some sort of Halloween related skit.
