techteach Posted July 24, 2022 #2676 Share Posted July 24, 2022 @Lanky Lad I hope the weather change is to your liking. We had a beautiful sunrise this morning and then fog rolled in, but it is clearing fast and we should see a lovely day with temps in the low 80’s. A perfect Seattle summer day.

After dinner there was a guy playing guitar on the plaza so Mister and I danced a bit before thunder and lightning and rain put a damper on things. Thanks for asking! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Texas and we do every thing in a big way. Parched dry, with wild fires one year. Allison and Harvey with 50 plus inches of rain in three days in other years. An inch or two every week or so, would be much nicer. The Weather Prognosticator says, the heat dome that has been cooking the central US will move east, and we will get on shore gulf air, and this time of year, it often results in afternoon showers. So fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect to soon hear of the Missouri/Southwest Aquaduct project -- which will divert the excess flow from the upper Mississippi watershed to the parched southwest.

techteach Posted July 27, 2022 #2688 Share Posted July 27, 2022 @Bigmike911 Yes you have sent us your blasting heat. Please take some of it back. We like 80 degrees. We saw 92 on the thermometer connected to our air-conditioner. It was actually lovely eating on our deck last night without having to put on a shawl.

Thank you, we're having champagne in the garden before we go across the road to the pub for steak night. Not quite QM2 but we're looking forward to Queen Victoria in September. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techteach Posted July 30, 2022 #2696 Share Posted July 30, 2022 @Host Hattie I feel like this is where we connect with each other and value that highly. Why are they moving this and is there any way we can stop it from happening? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted July 30, 2022 Author #2697 Share Posted July 30, 2022 We've not gone yet ! We've just said goodbye to the last of our guests, it was a grey day but the rain held off until about 7pm. We had a nice mix of friends and family and I think MrHH had a good time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techteach Posted July 30, 2022 #2698 Share Posted July 30, 2022 @Host Hattie Your post is exactly what I love about this thread. l don’t/won’t use the big online social media site that starts with an “F.” This is where I connect with people who I hope to meet some day. I have seriously thought about asking to rent your vacations house. If I saw @Lanky Lad on the street I would recognize him, if he looks like his picture :), and start a conversation. This thread is always positive. Cruise Critic, let us stay! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alc13 Posted July 30, 2022 #2699 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Maybe simply retitle the thread to something timeless. "Cunard cruisers - what are your thoughts on the dress code?" Here are my thoughts on the dress code - Maine summer is in full swing. Here at our house the vegetable and flower gardens look beautiful. The deluge of kale is about to begin, and I don't understand why Mister ALC plants so many turnips but those are due soon, too. For some reason the melons didn't pollinate this year, very sad. The perennials continue to amaze - all that energy stored in the soil over the winter that explodes into luxurious growth in the spring and summer, looking so beautiful. We have a trip to Germany planned in October, mostly driving. Lobster prices are high, covid cases are low. Life is good here in Midcoast Maine. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
