In Florida, they won't come to help you unless you are sinking! 😮 Boaters are told to call Tow Boat US or Sea Tow (2 commercial towing companies that make some major $$ for that service 😉 ). Maybe there was some confusion on what was the nature of the emergency. The ambulance showed up, but was sent away after a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 25 years ago I was driving in NYC and made a left turn at an intersection that I had made the same turn on hundreds of times. On that particular day I failed to notice a small sigh that read no turns between 2 and 5 PM on weekdays. It’s the old saw “Ignorance of the law is no excuse”. It would have been nice if I had gotten a warning. I was driving a car with a Florida tag and had a Florida drivers license. I think the police officer thought I was making up my own rules. BTW, it must have been around 1958…I don’t know if any place on Long Island allowed rights on red then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be working our way up to those “crack the whip” rides. Don’t want them to get scared too soon. They will learn to push that envelope and come away laughing. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveling to regional and national golf tournaments, pro lessons and golf school. I have an attic full of trophies, because he never took them with him. He was good enough to make it to Junior Amateurs at Muirfield Village. That is a beautiful course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted July 14, 2021 #22756 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Another day of spoiling the kids, one day at a time. I think some of these have amped up their energy level. They are about 1/3 of the way through them. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved to LI in 2003 .I wasn’t driving anywhere in 1958 .I assume that there were no towns allowing turning on red at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted July 14, 2021 #22759 Share Posted July 14, 2021 It has been a long but lovely day around the English Lake District today. We had lunch at the Bellsfield hotel in Bowness then had a good walk around the lake. Afterwards we walked around the lovely Grasmere village where Wordsworth lived. Today it was sunny with a high of 85°F. I hope everyone had a nice day too. VID_20210714_132636.mp4 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheal Posted July 14, 2021 #22763 Share Posted July 14, 2021 @island lady Thank you so much. We have only been to Falmouth twice and the port wasn't finished the first time around. Graham, it looks so picturesque! As always lunch looks good! I'm surprised Pauline got so close to the swan. Here the swans are what you might call grouchy. No chance of me getting near one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted July 14, 2021 #22766 Share Posted July 14, 2021 3 hours ago, island lady said: Belize has become a "stay on the ship" stop for us this last time. My brother-in-law and wife likes to scuba dive so each summer they pick a place to vacation for a month. 3 years ago they spent a month in Belize. They had a great time. It’s a bit different finding what to at a place you stop at for a short day compared to a month. The way I understand they stay at these places for a month because you are limited on how much you should scuba dive. They will scuba dive for awhile and then explore the area they are staying. They started a YouTube channel showing different places. He’s a history teacher so he loves exploring historical places. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted July 14, 2021 #22769 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Another busy day. Got to sleep into 6am. Then drove around collecting all the cookies that family and friends baked for the wedding. Most of my friends still work so we coordinated gathering spots. Worked out well. But somehow I always feel behind. But getting so excited as the DD and future Husband are walking tall and proud into their future. Today at 9 had my hair appointment. Nice colors put in. Was not permitted any green , red , or purple. I kinda like the bottle I picked. “Summer slut blonde” Then off to Venue. Busy busy. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest up, I'm guessing you won't be sleeping in until 6AM tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
