Oh No! That is awful news Bonnie. I am so sorry about your accident/injury.

No one pays attention to things I write.

Nothing. They don't check for one. CLIA is a voluntary organization that is probably an error that has been communicated through various iterations of the requirements. Please try not to worry about it if you have valid testing results.

We have one of those. It is an attachment for our pressure washer. They do work well. And we have had a setback to our kitchen remodel. We originally had a Formica countertop and a thin sheet of Formica as a backsplash. Since this began back in January, we have asked repeatedly about the Formica backsplash and the tile replacement. Even the tile measurement guy was sort of wishy washy about whether it would be a problem or not. We have asked repeatedly. Now that the countertops, new sink and cabinets are in, the tile backsplash people are indicating that the Formica is a problem and will need to be removed. And if the sheet rock is damaged in the removal, it will need to be replaced. No one seems to be quite sure who is going to do this removal without damaging the new cabinets and countertops. Please stay tuned. We will have to see how it goes. I had hoped to post photos of the new kitchen next week.

This is what I meant about gas prices: NorCal Residents Reel From Highest Gas Prices In The Country Drivers in the Bay Area pay well over $6 per gallon for gas. In rural counties, the price hovers around $7.

I have nothing to contribute to gas price discussions.

C&A Diamond +. But it is limited to socks, underwear, T-shirts, shorts, PJ's...not really laundry, laundry.

Not really. It cuts down on airfare (to Florida) for us. You get laundry bags for both weeks. We have the same cabin (which is a cruddy one on this particular B2B) But it will be fun, and nice to get away for a couple of weeks. We seem to kind of have low expectations anymore.

Is Jonathan coming over, or are you doing one for the puppies?

Sorry. Bungee trampolines are gone from Enchantment. You might want to let her know.

Oh! You went to the Ember Stomp Fire Prevention Festival. I just saw photos of the goats on the news. It did look small, but Marin County is very proactive about wildfire prevention. I hope it's not Covid, but either way, I hope you feel better soon and enjoy your Bay Area visit. The weather is supposed to warm up on Tuesday. And our gas prices are, indeed, horrible.

Who doesn't love a Slurpee?

That's a really chubby Border Collie. Great photos. It looks like a lovely day.

It was sad. It wasn't horrible or anything. But we were kind of disappointed in the experience. He seemed to be an enthusiastic young man, just not a very good waiter. And it wasn't until later that I remembered that we had wanted to try the Campfire Cookie. It's okay. We will have another opportunity. Thanks again, for your awesome restaurant reservations. We will have to be a little quicker to make them next time, too.

There is still a lot of snow and ice in the water. It does look like a nice day though. Enjoy your cruise. And please post more photos. Alaska photos are awesome!

What was the temperature like? It was cold when we were onboard at the end of April. And now there is a Pacific hurricane forming. Agatha. But there are no more 7 day cruises until the end of September.

You receive a $20 p/p dining credit. We had a really bad waiter on Navigator. He didn't listen or pay attention. DH never received the Jalapeno Poppers he ordered. And then he brought our check, shortly after we had started eating, so there was no offer of dessert or additional beverages. We did complain to the manager and on the survey. By then we just wanted to leave. We had the dining package and the beverage package, so the offer to fix it kind of fell flat. We will give it another try in September.

Ask your room steward for a paper copy of the compass when you first meet him. We received it every evening on Navigator with the exception of the first day. This was end of April.

OP is on Navigator.

Those are cute little cakes. The baker must have had a mold to make them look all perfect like that.

From another thread. "Someone messed around with their rearview mirror. I hate it when that happens!"

I thought the luggage cages were usually kept onboard? Then it seems that they might need some forklifts? But I agree with you, I don't think it will be a smooth process, plus they have to re-assign all of the passengers to new cabins.

Oh Phoenix. I am so sorry for you. That is really sad to hear. 💔

Really? We had a bunch of bottles of water, but we never received any cookies or other food gifts on Navigator. We did receive 2 more towels.
