Wasn't too bad from Chicago to Seattle today.

However, London to Chicago was a rough one...

Welcome home !!!!!!! :rolleyes:

No on the Heathrow-Chicago leg, all we got to take with us was our passport, flight document, and wallet. No purses, books, magazines, gameboys, iPods, etc.

That was a rough leg, say Mission Impossible III twice and Over The Hedge once. Plus old episodes of I Love Lucy and Fraser.

Well tomorrow I'll be heading for the 1000 Islands in NY for 5 days to see the Antique Boat Museum's Race Boat Regatta. I hope to stop at Whiteface for pics if I can. I still have Berkshire East pages to do so if I get these it will be a while before I can get them up. Later!

Should only be a weak Category 1 hurricane when it hits here on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. Hopefully we don't lose power too long

Well, after two days of school cancelled, that was nothing. Yesterday it was breezy with a little rain, nothing close to what they predicted for us. Thanks Ontariodude

Hello everyone , I'm back in the game from the river , back full time at the resort of my choice , and back to my all of my communication devices.

"Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish—a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow—to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested . . . Res ipsa loquitur (it speaks for it self). Let the good times roll." HT

Jeez, I have been without power for 4 days in Seattle, right now I'm away from my house for a few hours. A 100 foot douglas fir tree fell on my house in the big storm.

Well i'm in Avon and the other members living in my apt had the net already but had no clue how to set it up. So i set it for them and will be spiting the cost of the bill.

I'm happy. I can't live without access to my e-mail, aim, msn and icq messangers.

Got our power back here in Maple Valley on Saturday night. I'm really suprised, they normally don't worry about us "foot hill towns" until after everyone else is up and running. I had planned on at least four to five days without power, and had just topped off the fuel tanks for the generator when they turned the power back on. Well, I'm good and ready for the next storm!
