Coralc Posted October 28, 2023 #106651 Share Posted October 28, 2023 We went to Costco today and purchased 3 boxes of full-size candy bars. We don't need that much for our dozen or so trick or treaters. But we will have chocolate until Easter. ☺️ They also had 3 pack boxes of chocolate covered Macadamia nuts for $17.98. I might go back and get another one. I always seem to need small gifts (plus tip) for the nail salon, hair salon and just miscellaneous things. Plus! I really like chocolate covered macadamia nuts. 😄 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is at the SF Bay Area house. Warnings are good, but it is a little alarming. "This is an Alert from County. The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for County from 10-28-2023 at 05:00 AM until 10-29-2023 at 05:00 PM.

It will be fine. I think they are just being overly cautious because the Oakland Hills fire was in October 1991, and because of what happened in Lahaina. ☺️ And if the house did catch fire, we wouldn't have to worry about the termite work and moving all of this stuff. <jk> Edited October 28, 2023 by Coralc 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We typically book corners but there were none available. Love the big balconies on the aft. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We love this area. We are now waiting for the 10AM mail boat that goes to five of the harbor islands. It is a working mail ferry that also takes up to 400 passengers. Figured it is a cheap harbor cruise. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have booked the Serenade Oct 2024 in aft balcony 8672 or 8072 (? I believe, will confirm # after checking reservation). Right under your balcony I think. I am so excited! Have been on a similar middle aft balcony on the Jewel in the spring and loved it. Spent most of my time there.

Rare cruiselvr04 Posted October 28, 2023 #106673 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Jimbo your trees are lovely. Wow that’s a lot of work! I put a tree in every room too but they are ceramic or pre decorated and are table top size. If I had to put up that many I’d start early too. Dani, always good to hear from you! We usually skip Halloween just because I always worked it so moms with young kids could have the evening off. Maybe we’ll get some candy and turn on the lights this year. It drives the dog nuts though with all the door bell ringing. TBD. I wish we were north with the littles but we can’t go until the following week as we are dog sitting for our other daughter here. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at your bank statement or credit card statement, or however you pay bills and if you believe you have paid, tell them to pound sand. Then call the company you do business with and see if they are looking for their payment. Regardless, don’t give anyone your bank account information etc. If you can’t decide any of that it is time for someone to take over your finances. It saddens me when people fall victim to these evil people. jc I am very aware of the scams,thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one point in our lives, we looked at apartments in Forest Hills. I remember one good one was at Yellowstone Blvd, I think near the tennis center. For some reason we didn't take it but always loved that area. You have my condolences.
