I’m trying to play catch up again, but got distracted by the humor thread in its new spot in Floataway lounge. They’re really letting it all loose over there! Some have mentioned they wouldn’t follow or post in this thread if it were moved to Floatway. I’m just curious why? Does anyone know what kind of tree this is? There are quite a few in my neighborhood, some with this color flower but more with a yellowish cream color flower.

@jmh2006 @Sea Dog @Husky1987 🎵oops, I did it again🎵. Adventure here we come! Using Andy’s casino certificate we were able to book a promenade room at a ridiculously low cost to us. I just couldn’t do an interior (even though promenade’s are interior) down on Deck 2 or 3. We will be on Deck 8. I’ll miss the balcony but following on the heels of our family August trip and the Med trip, it just wasn’t in the budget. Next up is booking Beach Club and JVD.

@Sea Dog @jmh2006 This October thing is an actual possibility! TA extraordinaire gave me a nice price. Then we called the casino number because Andy has a free cruise certificate. Turns out, we can do it for only port charges which would be about $250, if we can deal with an inside cabin 😬🥴. Upgrading to a balcony brings the price higher than TA’s. We’re going to call back tomorrow morning to ask about OV and Promenade cabins.

So finally some pictures of the kitchen island project. First, the before photos, including blue tape we used as a guide for the placement of the new island. You can see it’s not only an unusual shape, but very oddly placed and not at all practical for cooking due to the distance from the sink and stove. The placement also meant the kitchen table had to be pushed too close to the far wall to allow for any type of China cabinet or hutch. (Old photo from last Christmas) This is the new island. Much larger, more functional and so much more storage. It also allows the table and chairs to be centered and room for a hutch. There’s still some discoloration in the hardwoods from the old island but that will eventually darken. I absolutely love the two deep drawers for all my pots and pans.

Happy Birthday to @h20skibum Mark’s daughter and to @Ocean Boy! We have temperature’s in the mid 80’s today and tomorrow then only in the 60’s for the next week. Crazy spring weather patterns. After last weekends cookout, we realized we need to find a way to provide a shaded area around the pool for the grill and a table for food & drinks. We’ve been using a patio umbrella but it’s kind of a Mickey Mouse operation & doesn’t work great as the sun moves. So we ordered this yesterday. It’s scheduled to arrive next week, then my handy Andy can assemble it. It’s 6 ft deep by 12 ft wide so there should be plenty of room for the grill and a table, plus it has shelves on either side.

Another cutie pie John! @Luckynana belated birthday wishes to your grandsons. And that prom picture? Stunning - both your granddaughter and the dress! It seems like many of us spent the past week, or at least the weekend, doing yard work. We had the kids & grands over Sunday for a cookout and the first swim of the year. Saturday and Monday were devoted to mulch and a lot of new plantings around the yard. Tomorrow I plan on doing all my patio pots and hanging baskets. The new island is done, I just need to take a few minutes to get some pictures when it’s not covered with stuff. I’m still in the process of bringing up serving dishes that previously had to be stored downstairs, but I now have room for them up here. We have another nice week coming up but we sure could use some rain. Oh, and like most of you I will always call it the Tappan Zee.
