Anyone from the Northeast and/or New England remember the April 1st blizzard several years ago? I remember it. I also recall that we had a significant snowstorm around 15 -20 years ago on April 15th here in the Northeast. I have my own plowing business and that was about the latest snowfall that could recall. Which is why I would never book a cruise until springtime. I am getting a little braver, (or crazier), in my old age seeing as I am taking chance with the "Friends of Bella" cruise in March 2023.😲🙂😮 Edited March 29, 2021 by cruisingpeople 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was either still in high school or shortly after, and I graduated in 1975.

A few days later, I was driving around with the top down in the convertible. As a child in the late 60's or maybe 1970, I remember a snow storm on Easter forced the easter egg hunt from outdoors to indoors. I was devastated....and still didn't find all the hidden eggs. My parents & older siblings got very creative with the hiding spots. 😀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tel Aviv's main "ring" .... Los Angeles here we come 😉 Goodness! When DH wakes up from his nap in front of the tv, he'll translate. I just understood a few words. I remember many, many years ago when construction first started on that Ayalon Highway. No escaping progress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took it completely down and had to repair small spots of dry rot on the bottom of it (steel door, but wood corners on the bottom). Plus he replaced the seal on the bottom. That and paint both sides. It has a big lead lined stained glass panel in it, making it very heavy. Took all both of could do to wrestle with that thing! 😮 But it does look nice now and has a much better seal. 🤗 What project are we doing next?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In NY in the late 90's, schools were closed so many days one winter due to snow that schools had to remain open during Spring break. All alloted snow days were taken. At that time ,no state aid if schools were not in session 180 days per year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL....we need to replace the carpet in the bedroom and walk in closet...but we have to have that one hired out. 😉 Need to find a reputable flooring store, or if all else fails...Lowes. At least Bucky gets his 10% military discount there. We did finally...finally!....receive our Stressless love seat (to match the two recliners) that we ordered way back in early November. Stepping back to take a look at the result, drats...now our dining room set doesn't match everything. Just ordered a new set. Never ends eh? 😮 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since our May cruises were cancelled, (absolutely no surprise there)...I was officially able to book a couple of weeks in California wine country first two weeks of May as alternative. These rabbits are starting to move about indeed. 😉 Bring on that carrot on a stick. 😄 🥕 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sara mom Posted March 30, 2021 #11888 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Took a quick trip to Niagara Falls yesterday. It was a balmy 38 degrees and windy. I love how they light up the falls at night. Things that were different for us... no car line ups at the border and seeing the Maid of the Mist area with no people. The Maid of the Mist are the boats that take folks on the river close to the falls- they run from the US and Canadian sides. In the last picture, that area is normally packed with people. When I was in my early teens, I had good friends that lived in Niagara Falls. We would walk across the Rainbow Bridge to play mini golf and the walk back. Even before Covid, kids would not be able to do that now. If I want to drive through Ontario to get to Detroit with my kids(it’s quicker than going south around the Great Lakes), I need a notarized letter from my husband giving permission and their passports. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted March 30, 2021 #11889 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I haven't been to the falls in a long time. They are beautiful. I need to get there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted March 30, 2021 #11890 Share Posted March 30, 2021 OK my long sarcastic post just vanished. So to summarize Dinner was great all home made from Lasagna, to garlic bread to salad. One rule in house, I cook and DH cleans up and starts dishwasher. He can trade roles any time, but in soon to be 30 years of marriage is happy I cook. He can play with food on a BBQ grill if you call that cooking But has no clue on planning, prepping cooking, making sides Dishwasher broke Damn crisis mode. So what do I do. Exit stage left and take a bubble bath, I never knew you could make that much noise doing dishes. I mean I had to turn up the jets on in the tub upstairs (Garden tub with jets) just to drown him out. So I told him,, no dishwasher start bringing home dinners from you favorite carryout places. I'm not cooking. We have enough paper plates and stuff. So guess where we are going tomorrow. Yup out to dinner. Then look for a new dishwasher. Wasn't on the plan especially since we found out we both owe taxes this year, state and federal.

Rare Lionesss Posted March 30, 2021 #11891 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I was typing my dissertation when the Niagara pictures came up. Very pretty, nice job. We did a fall get a way in November and stayed on the American side (But waved to Andrew Lisa and Owen), and then went gambling at Seneca casino. We always went to Canadian side, but for us found so much to see on American, from forts to falls, to casino. Glad you were able to get away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife is from Buffalo area so we visit the area often, our first trip to Seneca I hit for 750 on a 5 dollar slot we were with friends so that paid for a great dinner for the four of us. Do prefer view from Canadian side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted March 30, 2021 #11900 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Looked outside the window tonight to see the most beautiful moonrise. Grabbed the iPhone and went out in boxers and a winter coat for 10 minutes. Not bad for under 40F. Zoomed in closer for this. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
