I don’t do planes at all and seeing them rocking like they did today did nothing to make me change my mind about it. LOL
Very few of the small planes went up today, which is understandable. There were several large jets in and out, some rocking more than others.

What a drag it must have been that time, being so close to home and not able to land right away. It’s a long flight to Anchorage and you must have been more than ready to off the plane.

[radu]

Howdy do, Conor! *HUGZ*

The new project still keeping you busy?

[luvie]

It’s actually full at 5:something AM tomorrow, but since I’ll be sleeping then, I did it tonight. LOL!

[luvie]

Till they all come home......

[radu]

Hey, that’s close enough. LOL
I still haven’t taken a peek but am getting ready to head over to the other house for a bit on a search mission. I’ll see it then.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...did you and Blue get out today, or did you and Penny hang out for her birthday?

It’s raining gold leaves here. No grass is visible in the back yard. We need a good wind. LOL!!

[mylife]

Doug was a trip

[luvie]

It’s very bright and beautiful! Good luck with the search party. LOL!

Since you don’t want it .......

[radu]

He sounds like he was a good friend and fun to hang out with from things you said after he passed.

[Kathy in Alaska]

We must never forget, Pro, NEVER!

[radu]

It sure IS bright. Not a cloud in the sky tonight to obscure it.

The search was successful. I need to find some documents that were in a file cabinet that’s still at the other house. It’s one of those fire-proof cabinets and just too heavy to move.

AND I got the plants that have been on the carport over there all summer into the garage here where they’ll stay until next spring. Daytime temps aren’t going to be too bad but the nights are going to be too cold for them. They don’t like temps in the 40s.

A very pleasant good Thursday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

How's everyone doing this morning?

[luvie]

Aww..shoot! I forgot how close it was. Well...WooHoo!!! You won it fair and square!

[luvie]

Glad you got those plants inside. Hubby bought a small greenhouse, but do you think he’s put it together yet? Well...nooooooo...it’s still in the box, taking up space in the garage. LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

We will NEVER forget! Thanks, luvie.

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

I hope you and Gizmo had as pretty a day for your outing as we had yesterday.

Looks like I’m not the only one who snoozes and loses. :-)
