MORNING ROLL CALL L JUNE 2026

My memorable moment at SNP was similar ,campground was 60* with 2 dogs and the RV, Went into the bush down 20 feet and it was like a rainforest.

Immediate temperature climbed to 80-90.

We were all panting by the time we hit campground and A/C was turned on. The dogs were tired by the time we returned, couldn’t have been more than a 3-hour bushwhack.But it was better than parking in Cherry Hill for a month.

During the flooding and heavy rains. Mud up to here, might be confusing my songs but, we were both singing about the big muddy when we returned. Shenandoah is on my bucket list for future if it allows.

Hey, @DaveMcK @SummerOnTheWay1 @Frozenoem @Therapist4u @LeeS4949 @MsStretch @LaDolceVita... and anyone who happens to come by...

At my age I thought I was finished experiencing "firsts," but this morning around 10:25, there was a 4.7 mag. earthquake! The epicenter was in NJ, but quite a few areas felt it. I was in the bathroom when it started and at first I thought there was something wrong with my heater and it was going to explode. The noise was incredible. Sounded like a huge, unbalanced washer full of stuff. The whole house was shaking. I thought to myself, Is this an earthquake? In all my 75 years, I actually have never felt an earthquake before.

Lasted about 30 seconds and gradually settled down. I looked outside...nothing unusual. Was very perplexed until about 15 minutes later the TV news people started breaking into programming with the news that it was an earthquake.

For such a magnitude, it was surprising that there had so far been no reported injuries or damage.

So, my weekend was off to a rather exciting start! 😲

Anyone else feel that? They say it was felt from MA to MD.

PM’s on the other hand stop at 11:30 pm,

Time to await more snow, feed fire and and try to finish use of my thumbs, iPhone.

 All my life.. Well, not actually ALL of it yet.. Just all my life up till now. 😊

Hey, All,

Like @Therapist4u, I never get any notices that things have been posted here anymore. Once in a while if someone mentions me, that notice comes through, but more often I get nothing. I never changed anything, so no clue as to why I don't get my AARP email notices that someone has posted. When I get a couple of minutes, I may check here, but unless I get a nudge from an email, I'm oblivious. 🙄

Y'all take care.

@Frozenoem ...stay warm amidst your blizzard! We are just having wind and rain this week...lots and lots of rain! ⛈ And maybe a thunderstorm.

Hi Nicole! @SummerOnTheWay1

I’m not getting most of my AARP emails again...so if you or someone else tags me lately, I’ll not know it!, ...& that means it will leave many messages unanswered!!..

oh well...

But ...I just happened to see your post...

anyhoot.... Snoopy is NOT kicked to the curb....but since it was about St Pat’s....I tried to crop out that part of the avatar, & leave Snoopy & the rainbow part...but it’s too small...& yes...since no holidays for a while...I used one of my gazillion pics of nature!

I change my Avatar (but not my Username) OFTEN too....every few weeks or so...

AFA: ACES....ya...got the PM...but I don’t understand the need to “phase them out”

Most of them are great friends!...they (we) deserve some kind of recognition...like for posting often & trying to help other peeps!

KUDOS are OK...but mostly MEH! LOL!

Anyway... Take care!

April Fools Day will be arriving on Wednesday am,pm,Thursday am, pm along with 12-18” of snow.

But I seem to recall the same amounts promised 2 Saturdays ago when we got 29” - surprise! At least the snow should only remain for 2/3 weeks judging by last storm.

That means I can see my driveway and woodpile once more.Might even get oil before the next storm🤔, and another load of wood.

Odd this desire to remain warm when night time temps are still  in  single digits to highs of 20*.😎 it’s tha daytime temps that suggest Spring will arrive eventually.

Have fun, y’all

@LaDolceVita 

Just read of Claire’s passing over the rainbow bridge, know that feeling only too well. Never for 20 years though, the closest was 18 years for my Rottweiler/Lab and my Siamese Sealpoint.

Took me a long time to get over there passings, as well as the other ones. Best we can do is remember them and actually hope to find them waiting when we cross over.

Still feel the presence of all of my dogs and cat, with the memories that go with each of them.
