dbancroft Posted September 11, 2020 #1078 Share Posted September 11, 2020 My new normal day consists of online schooling of my 10 year old granddaughter and 5 year old grandson. Very time consuming going from one computer to the other. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I looked at them as well. At one point we had a 32’ triple axel, 5th wheel steel featherlight trailer. It was far from light. LOL. We moved a lot of gear on it over the years. This one is locally made, equal quality and more economical than the mist equivalents. I have always said, cursing on a ship or behind a wheel. Link to post Share on other sites

I did the same thing about a week ago. I was sitting at an outdoor restaurant and we are supposed to leave our mask on until our food and drink arrive to our table. As soon as my Mojito showed up I went to sip out of the straw and had my "duh" moment too! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

How’s Nate doing? Hopefully even better than the last update. Sandals in Antigua is very beautiful. We have done a day pass several times while visiting from cruise ship. Hubby enjoyed the snorkel boat tour which is included in the pass and I could not be dragged out their pool. Enjoy! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Gahhhh I hope all these restrictions are over long before Feb. 🙏🏻 https://www.royaltonresorts.com/royalton-antigua Enjoy yourself! Are you going to be in the over water bungalows?

I think you’d appreciate this little number. It’s a 91 with around 6,000 miles. I am happy to say I have enjoyed half of them from behind the wheel.

I had a 964 turbo for a while - never should have sold it but the right buyer came w/ the right amount of $. Early 90s was such a fun generation for these cars. I have some buddies that are into American muscle cars. Gt40s, ZO6s, Etc. Really enjoyed driving the new GT350 as well. Expensive hobby my friend! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The store closes at 6 now 😞 Ordered it online and pick up tomorrow. Nate’s arm 3 days ago...looks even better now Definitely practice like Bob said. On 9/11/2020 at 7:53 AM, bobmacliberty said: Definitely practice with the drone before you go. They are fairly easy fly, especially with the intelligent flight modes. They aren't fully intuitive (at least for me) so when you need to react on instinct, you needs those hours of practice. I accidentally flew into a patio chair because I didn't react properly. Fortunately, I only damaged a couple of the props. Mike has gotten pretty good at it. He decided to get a video of the new metal roof and solar panels. As he was going around the waterfall on the pool deck he tripped. Probably on his own feet but didn't fall. In the process he accidentally hit something on the control thing sending it straight to the bottom of the pool. Thanks goodness for insurance. 15' the other direction and it would have gone in to the water and he would have to go diving to get it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

singinalot Posted September 12, 2020 #1094 Share Posted September 12, 2020 spent today deep cleaning and came across leftover casino chips from the Allure 😞 Hubby had said he’d just use them this November when he brought them home back in January. Luckily it’s just a few bucks. Took the drone over to our friends last night and definitely was overwhelmed in the beginning but started to get the hang of it!

We are a big Sandals fan we have done a few in Jamaica and always enjoyed them , we have a pool in our backyard but it doesn’t have a swim up bar. Our life has not really changed other than we cannot travel. We go to dinner normally 3 nights a week and normally go to restaurants with live music. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

He can fly a 787, but he's not that good yet with the drone, at least I don't think so. 🤣🤣🤣 Edited September 12, 2020 by ReneeFLL 3 Link to post Share on other sites
