Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!
O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.
O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.
O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!
Cool... looks nice. Nuthin' happin' here, but it is getting colder. Mid thirties now. Mebbe sumpin happin. :-)
Looks like these aren't any good if you have checked baggage, though, no? And since John decided at the last minute that they want us to play music, I *have* to have checked stuff since I'll be bringing the mandolin. And bringing back a fiddle AND a mandolin. Ungh.
cool pitchers...
Southwest has a first come first serve seating. Whenever I've checked in online, I've gotten A - the first boarding group which gets the best choice of seats. Even when I get the B group, I can still get a window seat if I show up at the airport to line up at the gate early enough. If you wait until you're the C group, chances are that the three of you won't be able to get seats together.
Does that apply even with luggage, though?
Does your luggage have to sit together?
Heh...no. But when I called my sister-in-law to offer to check them in, she said she was under the impression you couldn't use on-line check-in if you had any checked baggage.
"Very Exciting... as a luggage problem."
Really? Darn...
Yes, that applies even if you're checking luggage. You just go to the desk to check your luggage and tell the service rep that you already have your boarding pass. Of course they can see that you've already checked in and they just confirm that you have it.
Beautiful!
Honestly, I'm amazed at the HooHa surrounding the fact that Mitt's a Mormon. At least the Mormon's don't advocate killing folks if they don't want to convert! Sheesh!
Pretty! We haven't had much snow at all this year. David was kinda disappointed there was just a dusting while he was here.
Just Dang! I'm sure I must have seen her in lots of parts, but I only really every remember her as Lily Munster. She wore that part well.
She was Mrs. Moses also.
Greetings from easy, breezy, beautiful
Was a heck of a day getting here. Don't think I'm going to make it up Tulsa way. Mebbe next trip.
I was already underway with American called the house and said my flight was cancelled. So Big'ol knew before I did (I never turn my cell on unless I'm using it and that's almost never). So they put me on a flight from Reagan Nat'l. They even gave me a voucher for the taxi. Taxi Driver says, "Voucher pay your fare, but you pay tip." Oh great. I had exactly $30 bucks with me and I was hungry. I had no time to get down there so Taxi Driver says, with a laugh, "Looks like I fly for you." He got me to Reagan Nat'l in ~40~ minutes. It was terrifying. Omigoodness. DC traffic, 75 mph, and *drifting* into different lanes.
Glad to be alive. Will go tour Lawton in a bit and mebbe find a good Mex restaurant.
Nope. It's a cattle call. Do like OT says and check in online. You don't even have to print the boarding passes - just check in. That's what I do when I have to fly SW. (*shudder*) Then when you go in to the counter your boarding group is reserved and you can get your boarding pass and check the bags.
My Mom used to fly SW all the time. And she would literally get up at midnight to do the online check in. Had to get that "A"!
