The smoke is much less today. the wind is shifting tomorrow, and will carry it back up north. Thanks for the good wishes!

We still have the Canadian smoke haze. It is still better than rain these days. I still may regret this statement over the next two months.

@JenniferS I like your profile pic. Cute one of you and your hubby.

I absolutely LOVE all these hidden nooks and crannies all over Jerusalem, such as this tunnel that leads to a garden that is like a museum of every type of edible vegetation vanities!

I'd love to walk Walt through there.

My grandfather says to leave it out in the sun the next day, then once it gets nice and hot, spray it with the hose. Dings come right out.

But I'd rather not have to deal with it.

Oh my. I've heard so many things over the years in regards to the hail dimples thing.
Everything from the hot sun and hose thing that you mentioned, to dry ice, to blow dryers, etc. I've never seen any definitive proof that any of it has ever really worked.
Rather, unfortunately, I've seen videos where none of it works.

 

[Gabe1]

yes..
3+ billion supposedly were approved for DHS (Star Wars/PIXAR expansion), and some extras for MK and EPCOT.

Ha! I'll believe it when I ride them and then cautiously by into the numbers revealed. I still wonder about the FLE and the dollars claimed for 2 attractions and lots of rocks. If the numbers are indeed true, the rocks are their brains.

We have Curse of the Black Pearl on DVD.

I've just never watched it.

 

[donaldtoo]

This is what I think of too.

Thanks, it's from last summer. He's not crazy about it. (It's also my current FB profile pic.). He's lost 30 or so lbs since then, so he doesn't like the double chin.
We're on the GO train on the way to Skydome. (Yes, Skydome. It will never be the Rogers Centre to me.)

 

[JenniferS]

So, we didn't end up going to see the Minions tonight. Tammy and I ended going to visit Auntie instead.
I have a standing date with my niece, Ally to see it on Tuesday (cheap night), though I strongly suspect I may see it before then.
Did anyone else make it out tonight?

You wouldn't want to live with us, that's for sure. In winter, the heat is about at 58 (if it's really cold outside, like zero or below, I'll break down and kick up the heat to 60 degrees for that). In summer, we'll turn on the a/c to about 62 or so--just enough to make it bearable from the heat and humidity. So far this summer has been good--not too many hotter days, so we've been lucky. (Oh, hubby isn't a fan of my favorite lower household temps; he often walks about here in his hoodie to keep warm?! Such a wuss!)

It's all relative.
Some think a "wuss" is somebody that can't handle 100+ degree temps.

I feel so naive, I've never heard of any of these home remedies.

Now I have seen Back to the Future! Multiple times. Although that GIF is from Back to the Future: Part 2. I watched all three multiple times in a row after I had my tonsils out (in the dark ages before we had Netflix. Heck, before I had a laptop. Only a portable DVD player.)

Onion soup. My favorite.

Yep, one of my FAVE soups, too...!

The pictures of my parents that I find the best of them are the ones that one or both of them hates.

I think it's a good picture of the two of you.

 

[StarWarsGirl]

Yep, one of my FAVE soups, too...!

Also, oddly, my first table food...

 

[Gabe1]

It's all relative.
Some think a "wuss" is somebody that can't handle 100+ degree temps.

My solution to the wuss temperature control in our home is to put a window unit in our bedroom so the kids didn't freeze during the summer. I set it at the lowest temp and kick it up to high at night. Frozen Tundra. If I had it to do all over again, the very expensive mattress set I have would not have memory foam under the pillow top. The heat retention combined with a woman my age is so not a good mix.

Sweet Disney dreams to one and all...!

really? I could swear it was Martin Short.

*edit*
you're right, it was steve Carrel!
Martin was in other dreamworks movies.

I'm pretty sure I've seen every episode. Daughter loves it.
