Gary I followed you on that one. I think Big really does need a vacation all that cold and snow must have froze his mind a little.

Big, Gary wants to know which cruise line is the most Mule friendly.

The kids wont be going on this trip when we go, they have a problem with being able to flush the toilet with no fingers, and for some reason they don't have to good of aim. And we don't even want to THINK about a case of the squirts from them

We are looking at booking a trip for as far away as next Jan. to get us out of the snow, this year has been a long and really hard winter. Lots of snow more than the town has had since 1919, this is one reason we took a few little vacations to get away, some planned, some not.

Penny likes the sun and warm in her old age, shes thinking that a trip to the down under on a Cruise and I want to see the roo's and boom's of Australia, that could be around the first part of March when we return. We had a trip planned to Tahiti but when the Daughter got married we gave them the planned trip as a Wedding gift and we missed out, I cant live without taking the kids to the mountains for summer camp. Penny indulges me in that obsession of mine

SO ITS PAYBACK TIME Its not to bad she's a fun gal

Gary they are ready to go just in case, and are willing to even take the barn cat:-laf

SAN FRANCISCO -- More than three dozen vacationers aboard the Crown Princess have become ill this week during a cruise along the California coast that stopped in San Francisco on Monday.

A statement from Princess Cruises says 37 passengers -- about one percent of the ship's passengers -- have been reported ill, and likely are suffering from norovirus. The highly contagious virus can be spread from person to person, from contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces. It causes stomach pain, nausea and diarrhea.

Princess Cruises said after discovering the outbreak it "immediately initiated additional enhanced sanitation procedures to interrupt the person-to-person spread of this virus."

The weeklong cruise departed Los Angeles on Saturday with stops that include San Francisco. A total of 3,161 passengers and 1,176 crews members are on board, the statement said.

BIG,

Just looking out for your flop eared buddies. I know Penny will be well cared for, ship's credit wrist band for shopping, plenty of umbrella drinks, and other distractions. But the hay burners, the 4 legged fertilizer factories I'm a bit concerned about their accommodations. Example, will they be forced to walk the gang plank to board (that clippety clopping noise and uppetty down motion while they march in just might get them a bit skiddish) or loaded by crane. What about the Mule's room, above the waterline to get a view of the ocean, see the swells, do a little whale watching take a few selfies. Will they have the Montana grasses to munch on between 7 course chef's meals? An unhappy Mule with a bit of GI distress, well, that can ruin your day.

I'm not too worried about you BIG, I hear they need a peg legged pirate aaaarrrgghh me maties diner be served on the poop deck volunteer to keep the little pirates charmed while mom and dad eat at the big kids table.

Got a parrot for yer shoulder? Not a buzzard a parrot.

Spring be sprung in the Carolinas, dogwoods just started blossoming trees have greened up a lot, hardwoods to follow.

Well there ya have it, I cant stop in Calif anyway, had a little run in some of the Natives, and now that they want me to return to go in front of a Judge, Im going to for sure NOT GO ANYPLACE near Calif. I was told by sources that when that was ran in front of one of our state Judges, he said if I were to have happened here they would need two garbage bags. Only in Calif can someone be sued for defending themselves. :-laf
Haven't heard anything more so I doubt that the two, bangers can cough up the money for their attorney and pay a Marshall's time to come and transport me

But I do thank you for the ammo against the wife's wishes to go on a boat, I really don't like germs.

Mules will go places that I wont, so they are good with the plank walking, seaweed could be an alternative to the hay? If we have to go, maybe an October cruise so I could be a pirate in the costume party

rain is making the snow go pretty fast it wont be long before its MUD SEASON in its full glory
