  1. After being in Virginia for 2 and half years this morning we finally made it to Big Waker Lookout. It's 100 ft high but seems much higher. From the tower you can actually see 5 states. Virginia ,Kentucky,West Viginia, North Carolina and TN. Took a few pictures, most not very good. It was a little hazy when we were there early this morning. Still an awesome view from the tower. https://www.scenicbeauty-va.com/
  2. It's lucky your Grandson got anything signed by Hines wearing that Bengals cap. 🤣 I wouldn't exactly blame the seller for tickets costing that much, I would more like blame the buyers who buy tickets at those prices. Believe me if nobody buys at those prices, the prices would be alot lower and more reasonable.
  3. Guess this whole thread is bogus then? Complete waste of time reading it. Carry on..........
  4. If that is the case , if you can't believe the posts we read on here of someone's cruise experience( good or bad) when they were on their ship why should we believe what you posted?
  5. That's an easy fix just raise prices once a ship is at or near full and others won't book.
  6. That's ashame, petty stuff like that will make some cruisers look for another cruise line next time when booking their next cruise. What is the Royal thinking?
  7. Vincentown Diner, Intersection of Rt 206 & Rt 38 Southampton, NJ 08088..........I assume you are taking the NJ Turnpike, you would get off at Exit 7 and head south on Rt 206 for about 13 miles one way from the Exit.
  8. You might be right, the feel of entitlement might be raging by the time some later cruisers board. Just might not be the same kind of feeling around the ship as a usual cruise. I guess only time will tell how it goes.
  9. Seems then you have nothing to lose right. Reserve the the restaurant and time you want on day 1 or 2 for 1 person on your cruise planner at the reduced rate, show up with 2 persons. They have the table reserved for 1 person but can easily add the second place setting to that 2 person table, since there are no 1 person tables. Use your B1G1F coupon if allowed at reduced cruise planner price , if not they cancel your original reservation for 1 person and charge you for 1 onboard price, other dinner is free. This way I'm assured getting the time and restaurant we want. Why feel the need to rush and go there on boarding day. Correct?
  10. Miss the Vincentown Diner ALOT ! Just checked and the same house we stayed at on 23rd Street in Ship Bottom is still there right next to The Sand Trap miniature golf course. Unreal the house is still there, when we stayed there 50 years ago it had no AC, looks like they have window units now.........Always got a nice breeze through the windows though. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.6409704,-74.1835235,3a,75y,229.24h,80.61t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sGJbfUIjUbJwEwFjAKuwnVA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 The little gray house with the white car in the driveway. The pizza and ice cream shop( Joey's Pizza) is across the street same side of road is still there too............I'm pretty sure it was a different name then..........but at least it's still there.
  11. I guess I got my green thumb from my Father. When I was little my Father had large garden. We had a road stand and sold vegetables out in front of our house. My brother and I even used to carry vegetables in a wagon and go up and down the street in our neighborhood selling vegetables out of the wagon. He always said the garden besides fresh produce for us was to pay for the gasoline to mow the yard. But it also was to afford a 7 day rental at LBI at the Jersey Shore for many years.. Still remember those vacations like yesterday.
  12. So this is true with their insurance? 90% FCC ? any reason? Cancel For Any Reason Cruise Vacation Enhancement: up to 90% of Royal Caribbean cancellation fees in the form of a future cruise credit if you cancel for any other reason
  13. Never had a problem with just 2 long rows,yields very nicely and forms nice size ears. Buy my corn seeds on e-bay from a guy in Abbeville, Mississippi https://www.ebay.com/itm/283816927555?var=585337953151 These are pictures from last year.
  14. When you get Royal's Travel Insurance are all the policies exactly the same or are there different levels? Is all the same where can I get a copy of the policy?
  15. Not choosing the random times, that is all that seems to be available on our sailing on the cruise planner, rather have 7pm for all nights, but mostly all those times are booked so only available times are are all over the place after 8:15pm So far not liking the MTD option, wanted early but it's only wait listed at this time.
  16. I thought with MTD, booking ahead on the cruise planner, your times may be over an hour different on each night reserved, how can you have the same table and same waiter when MTD is set up like that? Not possible is it?
  17. Planted my garden about 10 days ago, planted zuchinni from seed and they are all ready up and doing fine. Planted Tomatoes and Peppers and Eggplant, they were all doing find except yesterday I noticed something making spots on the tomato plants, so I quick got out the spray and spayed them. Hope I got it it time whatever it is? We have had a lot of rain since the planting so haven't had the need to water anything so far. Corn seeds came in a few days ago and so far don't see anything coming up so far in the two 45 ft rows. Planted some flowers from seed also along with 2 different kinds of sun flowers which are all ready up too. Mowing yard twice a week right now, it's growing like crazy with all this rain we have been having in Southwest Virginia. Lows have only been in the high 40's, low 50's so I think our frost threats have ended. 🙂
  18. Breeze/Fresh Air vs Incubator I think you answered your question in your question.
  19. All this talk and just remember this about the points...............
  20. Some tickets went as high as $15,000 per ticket in Philadelphia.. Heard that on WIP radio. https://6abc.com/three-night-taylor-swift-concert-lincoln-financial-field-philadelphia-businesses-hotel-industry/13231695/
