Thank you for the tip, but I'm not a fan of kiwi. It's got mega seeds and a weird outer cover. The taste isn't bad, so if some ice cream company can use it to make a flavor of ice cream, I'm all in! (Although I'm not sure if ice cream lowers cholesterol . . . )

You don't eat the peel silly.

Battleship view from his room

Wow! Great view. (He was probably sitting in a chair, and eating the trail mix he brought with him, while looking out at the scenery.) Glad they put him up in a nice hotel.

It was a beautiful day so my wife wanted to travel west to the Sunflower Farm in Manalapan NJ.View attachment 407377View attachment 407378View attachment 407379View attachment 407377View attachment 407378View attachment 407379

That’s the thing... last time I saw them was in 2006. They rarely tour, rare thing to see.

Nice.. should be a great show! Have fun!

Wish my garden looked even 25% as pretty.

Me too, that’s why I go to the Arboretum!

Wow that pink bush!!! Have any idea what it is?

Were you asking about the first picture? The pink flowers in that are Bleeding hearts, there was a hydrangea that had a lot of pink.

Ohh sorry. The fourth picture. The one that looks like Pom poms.

Probably. I know he was watching some football game when he got back from exploring.
I am too. It is the nicest one he has stayed in besides the really nice one in Orlando. I can’t remember which hurricane that was.

Getting ready to go hang out with the cousins again for a family outing all the way up in the middle of nowhere in Cecil County. Woo!

Well, at least it's kind of pretty.

But literally, nowhere.

I had a group of friends come down from there and we hung out in Towson. Had to explain what parking validation was to one of them.

Not sure if this has been posted at all, but it's hysterical.

Read what I wrote a few posts back about kiwi fruit, or search the web how studies have shown that kiwi fruit helps promote good cholesterol and reduce bad cholesterol.

Apples too.

Wow! That is a crazy amount of money for pre-college education.

That is the type of stuff that forced my former neighbors to move due to their 2 daughters around 8 to 10 years ago. The former neighbors did not want their girls to be home schooled because of how bad the public system was.

The problem was the private schools were better than the public school system. The public school system was extremely bad at the time and still is to this day. I came from a public school system, but it got worse after my younger brother and I graduated. The school system got so bad that my parents made the comment that if my younger brother and I were kids now, they rather home school us due to how bad the public school system is.

Middle school and high school students were in the news for fights. The Public School system in question is one of the worst 10 school districts in Wisconsin for years.

What I know is when less than 20 percent of all students can do math properly in a big public school system, there is a problem along with the fact only around 20 percent of all students in the same school system know how to read and write.

The street light has power, so that is a good thing. Did he say if there was a lot of power line damage?

She is fantastic as the Evil Queen! That was really enjoyable to watch.

No way I can afford it now... no show is worth 300 bucks a whack

Most places have power now. There wasn’t a lot of damage. Dorian moves fairly quick out of this area. Some beaches south had more winds than his area.

Cousin's neighbors have horses and chickens!

Did any of the chickens cross the road?
