Rare puppycanducruise Posted November 12, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Good morning. Happy Saturday! Thanks for the Daily and Fleet Report. A cool day for us with some rain in the forecast. I'd like to be celebrating Happy Hour Day on a BHB. Interesting quote. I'll pass on the meal. The drink sounds good, hope the wine is too. I haven't been to today's port, Prayers for everyone. I hope there are lots of celebrations. Bertie and I are heading out for a walk soon. Have a wonderful day. Stay safe. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapau27 Posted November 12, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Good afternoon from a cloudy 13°C North East coast of England. Thank you for today's reports and Daily Rich. I'm sure most of us like Happy Hour. Interesting quote. I will give today's food and drink a miss. Prayers for everyone who is unwell. Bon voyage to everyone sailing and wishing you all wonderful cruises. I hope everyone has a nice weekend. Graham. 24 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLouisCruisers Posted November 12, 2022 #7 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Good morning friends! It's foggy and 60F right now. Clouds and a high of 69 today. Still in the aftermath of Nicole. Happy birthday wishes to my fantastic son today. He would make any parent proud! Thank you Rich @richwmnfor posting our Daily this morning. I see the port of the day is Fukuoka (Hakata), Japan which is the second time we've seen that one. First time was on May 27, 2021 and I will post the link to that date below. I have not seen that port before so appreciate any photos anyone has to post for us. French dip is a tasty sandwich. I hope World Pneumonia Day casts a light on the dangerous condition. I think we can all stand behind happy hour here on the Daily. The autumn squash salad sounds healthy but I'm not a fan of squash unfortunately. Watching Volendam making her way across. Thanks Roy for the update on the itinerary of Eurodam. Have a good day in Aruba tomorrow. Prayers for all on our Care list which I'm sure will be posted momentarily. So prayers for all of you as well as those in need due to war, and hurricanes. Congrats to all on the Celebration list! Enjoy your happy day! Have a great day everyone. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted November 12, 2022 #8 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Thank you for the Saturday report, Rich. I'll pass on today's days and hope for an end to pneumonia someday. I like the Camus quote but have not been to Fukuoka. I'll also pass on the meal. My alternative is Salad of Arugula and Frisee, Rack of Lamb, and Strawberries Romanoff as served on MS Eurodam last night. We had a death in our Fire Department reported yesterday. Long since aging out of active service Andy was a member almost as long as me. I don't know the day of death but services are the 15th.

Mr. Boston Posted November 12, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Good morning everyone from a warm, windy & rainy Boston. Pneumonia awareness and prevention are very important. I like French Dip and happy hour days, yes to both! Not sure about the quote, it’s a little too thought provoking at this early hour. I’ll pass on the meal but I’ll take the drink, with chips and salsa please. Haven’t been to today’s port yet. Prayers for everyone on our prayer list. Cheers to everyone celebrating happy events including our nephew John whose engagement party we will be attending this evening. 🥂 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat shepard Posted November 12, 2022 #10 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Thank you for today’s Report & Daily, Rich! Thank you for taking us with you, Roy & keeping the lists even on the high seas. Congrats on getting your 5⭐️ Pin! Zumba, gardening, and then an evening get together with friends. The sun is bright in the sky and there is a cool feel in the air. Perhaps Fall has returned. I should save this for Bike Week, but…. Prayers for all who need our support. Cheers to all who are celebrating! Stay well everyone! ******** Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc~Viognier White Blend All released vintages of this lovely wine share the same very good - excellent reviews and reasonable prices. Consumers love it too! This is one of my two favorite white blends. Great for just sipping, or with a meal. I found numerous online distributors with prices starting at $9.99. Wine Enthusiast, 90 This fragrant, stylish blend of Chenin Blanc and Viognier is the type of dry white I wish more California wineries would focus on. Think of a spring flower garden oozing with melon and citrus blossom notes. Fresh, light to medium-bodied, and dry, it is a food-friendly white to enjoy as an aperitif or with food.

Rare MISTER 67 Posted November 12, 2022 #11 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Good morning from beautiful Southwest Florida. Strange quote, I wonder what we are supposed to be. I really like French Dip sandwiches but I can't remember the last time I had one. Just returned from breakfast at Bob Evan's, very good eggs, pancakes and bacon meal. Only time I've been to Japan was on the way to Vietnam in 1967. Regardless what your political beliefs are, what is going on in Nevada and Arizona with vote counting is a joke and almost criminal. Thanks for The Daily, stay well and have a great day. Edited November 12, 2022 by MISTER 67 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindaler Posted November 12, 2022 #14 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Last night we went to an art walk and celebration in Mobile. My son was asked to fill in for an absent member of the puppet group. Here is a picture of him. I think blue with that cute orange hairstyle is adorable. Grandson and I had a ball too. He spent the night with me and will be here to help get my entry into the vegan chili cook off started. Prayers for all. Thanks for the contributions that make this a great place.

It’s probably one of the last days we will be able to sit outside with friends. Prayers for all on our care list , and for those affected by Nicole. My friends in Florida have all checked in as safe.

aliaschief Posted November 12, 2022 #21 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Good morning! Ironically, we went out to lunch yesterday and I had a delicious French dip beef au jus sandwich. Another pretty day here and we are back on neighbors cat sitting duty; as there headed to Troy State to watch Army and Troy State football game. After morning walk it’s back to harvesting the ever ending falling acorns. It’s the acorns 10,000 vs the squirrels 500! Rich thanks for the Fleet Report and to all our posting friends.

marshhawk Posted November 12, 2022 #23 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Good Saturday Morning! Yes, it's foggy in Stone Mountain today too. Nicole is not moving away fast enough. This morning is Shari's Life Celebration at 11. We are leaving at 9:30. Her sister called me yesterday to find out where they could take Shari's clothes (goodwill) and where to sell her movies and books. (same part of town a mile from Goodwill) which i gave her, the addresses and phone numbers, and added the information regarding a restaurant that was one of Shari's favorites that was near the place that buys back books and movies. I called Barbara last night to find out what to wear to a life celebration, she said in her case, it would be whatever fit, as she has not dressed up for more than 3 years. I have my go to skirt, but lack an appropriate top. then Penny called and it turns out that the address that she had posted on face book was wrong. So she was going to update that. Barbara said that she really didn't want to go, but she would drive herself and leave early. Penny wants to visit with old co workers, so she is driving herself to stay longer. @rafinmdI think you can take Jesse off the list for a while. He has acknowledged the cancer, he is doing the radiation treatment, however his white blood cell count is too low to get the chemo. This has been for the last two weeks. He has to have 7 treatments with the chemo, and he has only had 2, but that's not his fault. Prayers and cares for all. Have a great day! 20 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope your finger is doing okay today. I agree they need to rework their election process in Arizona and Nevada. Start counting absentees earlier perhaps or set an earlier deadline for absentee ballots (or do both). Other states can do it. Look at Florida! In our state we need to rethink this 50% of the votes policy because of the havoc it has caused the last two elections. Just pick whomever has the most votes, like other states do! 21 minutes ago, 1ANGELCAT said: Happy Birthday to Jake @Crazy For Cats Thanks for the reminder!
