We've gotten less than a half an inch here in the desert since the beginning of the year. I would do just about anything to enjoy a nice springtime thunderstorm!

anamanxs Posted June 4, 2009 Author #409 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I had to borrow this picture! This is not in where we are going but maybe another trip. The more pics I see, the more I think (like a pringle), one cruise to ALASKA is not enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do just about anything to enjoy a nice springtime thunderstorm! Last year it was very dry! We couldn't wash cars~water grass, nothing. People were getting fines. The lakes were really low. Alot of people had there wells dry up. This year is the opposite. In 1 month, we had 5 days of no rain and 26 days of rain. The weather is crazy! I wonder if I should look into booking a hotel? I thought it would be to early but now I wonder if I should look into booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Gal Posted June 4, 2009 #411 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Sonja, how old will your grandson be when we cruise? My grandson is also going, he will be 2 1/2. My daughter is very weiry about using Camp Carnival. Hi Annette, Colin will only be a year and a half when we cruise. I think that's too small for Camp Carnival, isn't it?

I thought it would be to early but now I wonder if I should look into booking. I thought it was early too but when I checked it out I was able to get prices on the link in the Seattle section. The prices are not bad. And you can cancel up to the day before so if I find something cheaper later - I am not out anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anamanxs Posted June 5, 2009 Author #418 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Good Morning all! It's Friday, It's Friday! And it is pouring.....We had storms again all night. Car battery died. Went to work fine, came out in the pouring rain and it was dead! Nothing left on, no warning ....just dead! Now, this is not an old car....2006 Jeep Liberty! So last night was a real bummer, getting a jump paying $100 for a battery and then wondering if I woul make it home in the pouring rain! Hopefully we will see SUN soon! So, how is everyone out there this week. Been quiet around here. Nutty, Jenni, Chick, you guys are doing OK! Nutty, you ever get with Johna? I posted some new info on Seattle in the board yesterday! Looks like there is lots to do there. I really want to do a DUCK there or in one of the other ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeNKim Posted June 5, 2009 #419 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Good morning Annette!!!!! Thank goodness it is Friday. Not raining here but weather is still cool. I don't think we are going to get spring, I think we are going right into summer. I need to print off that spreadsheet and get everyones names....I have a horrible memory. Hope you all have a awesome day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze21 Posted June 5, 2009 #420 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Thanks for the link Annette. I looked at it some last night. Going back to look at the rest in a few minutes. Its been pouring here sinse yesterday again. It just won't quit raining. Our pool is overflowing once again. Haven't been able to use it because its been raining so much. I am really tired of rain. As long as it don't rain the 13th. My son has his high school graduation that day and its supposed to be outside. We know the feeling Roy. For the past 3 weeks, Dan has been working just 3 days a week. He is used to 60 hours a week, now its not even 40. Hes home again yesterday and today. This economy needs to pick up!

anamanxs Posted June 5, 2009 Author #421 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Cher We will all do our no rain dance for the 13th! Congrats to your son. Does he have college plans! I hope Dan's work picks up. It is all just plain scary! Kathi, Did your son make it home at all between terms? Or did you at least get to go see him? I guess I am going to TN next weekend to pick up my step granddaughters for a couple of weeks. They were going to bring them here but with all the rain and all, their moving of their mobile home has taken forever! They have been in a motel for two weeks now. Lucky, I work for a childcare center or else I couldn't keep them at all. The girls will have a ball in summercamp for a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze21 Posted June 5, 2009 #422 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Been thru Tn alot! We drive thru there when we go to Nebraska. I always dread the 1st 8 hours...seems like we are on I-40 forever and Tn is such a long state to go thru. I keep checking weather channel. So far, 60% chance of rain but being a week out, it could change. We are planning a cookout after the graduation with family. Fingers crossed. Joseph is planning on going into the Marines after school. He has a recruiter and all that stuff. He went to MEPS once so far but failed the physical. Because of the way he eats (high in salt diet) his blood pressure was up. Hes supposed to be going back and having it rechecked. Hoping its normal. It has to be normal to join. Hes wanting to go to culinary school also. The Marines will pay for his schooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndpdntChik324 Posted June 5, 2009 #424 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Grrr... about the rain. Sunny and in the mid 90s here, again, for the 208th day in a row. I'm exaggerating, of course, but we haven't had a good rainstorm since we moved down to El Paso a year and a half ago. Hopefully it doesn't rain for that cookout though, purple. I'll do my rain dance here and maybe we can steal yours. Tennessee is a beautiful state to drive through. Tn and Va are so beautiful and it's such a peaceful drive. At least it was until we got to Memphis, that city was the worst! Dallas kinda stunk, too, but Memphis was worse. Can't wait to make that drive again!!!! Going the other way next time... start out in the crumby desert and end up in the beautiful countryside! Can you tell I'm excited to go home? Been quiet around here. Nutty, Jenni, Chick, you guys are doing OK! Yeah, Annette, doing good. Kinda depressed though, went to the Oral Surgeon yesterday and gotta get the wisdom teeth out in 2 weeks. :mad: I'm dreading it!!! I'm such a wimp when it comes to medical stuff.
