  1. Great report TCD! BTW - a little meteorological trivia. The technical term for what you see coming off of the pool on a cool morning is called a 'mixing cloud' and it is the same thing that happens here up nort' with car exhaust when it is really, really cold. I'm sure that is something that you have always wanted to know. ;)

    ...You will see some strange stuff, but I have to admit I've never seen a dude in a skirt for no apparent reason. Do you think he was commando? Ewww

    Thanks Stef! My new worst fear is to run into a dude in a skirt for no apparent reason who is going commando at Epcot while riding Soarin...

    If you think it is bad when you can see peoples' feet on that ride, it could be worse. Just sayin...

  2. Lol, We made got the sign for a friend of ours who sold us his train. At the time we did not know green was evil, our friend just loved Musket Mickey as much as we do. That is the only one and no one is selling them. :clint:

    It was at our site when we were just there and they got passed to Judy next. Who knows where they will end up next. I thought the hitchhiking ghosts one turned out nicely.....

    I wish I would have known that was you! I would have stopped to say hello.

  3. I'm enjoying reliving our time together through your eyes. I didn't realize that you got a picture of us when you went by on the boat. No wonder we didn't see you... We were gazing in the other direction. I really wish I was there right now instead of at a campground in southern Illinois. It's 47° outside right now, but there is a canal behind our site, so we are having a camping party inside and pretending that we are at the fort. ;)

    Just so I'm clear, it was the guest who caught the perp, right?

    I would be surprised if the inept/ancient/useless Fort Security Guards did.

    TCD

    I'm not sure how it all started. Maybe Lisa can chime in when she gets back, with more detail.

    My guess would be the Fort was involved in the nabbing as the bike owner was an older gentleman that I couldn't picture running/riding beside the canal.

    The guy's son chased him down in his cart and then on foot. We were at the dog park when it was going on, but we didn't realize it was him until we came by later and talked to the father. The jewelery was stolen from the store.

    Beautiful clouds. They are mostly altocumulus castellanus (castle clouds) which are some of my faves. The one in the background looks like cirrus anvil, the remains of a thunderstorm after it has rained itself out. I think I remember seeing the same clouds in some of TCD's pics from his cruise. I can't tell from the pic, but are they lined up with the shore? I assume that land would be behind you since (last I checked) the sun rises in the east and you are on the east coast. If so, they are most likely the result of the land breeze which is the alter ego of the sea breeze I was explaining in another post (sea breeze comes ashore during the morning and the land breeze goes out to sea at night). Both cause convection (clouds), but the sea breeze is generally more pronounced, and more likely to produce precipitation. I bet you've always wanted to know that! ;)

    That's the weather report for tonight... and now a word from our sponsor...

  5. I took Anna to the room while the rest were waiting, so she could use the bathroom and I could change into cooler clothes. This is what greeted me.

    Yes, those are towel monkeys. Unless you are one of my daughters. They were convinced they were rotisserie chickens.

    I'm serious. Rotisserie chickens.

    INC and I asked them why Sana would have decorated our rooms in rotisserie chickens made from towels. They didn't have an answer. But they couldn't be swayed. Until the next day, when they attended a class in the D Lounge on making towel animals. And they learned how to make....towel monkeys. Monkeys that looked remarkably like Sana's rotisserie chickens. I think they were finally convinced.

    I agree with the girls... That is some serious poultry action hanging from the ceiling!

  6. Please for the love of all thing no caca, you are NOT a meterologist. You just play one. I married a closet meteriologist. I can see a Ninja weather class approaching.....Oh my.

    :clint:

    And I HOPE the videographer can capture this one.

    Actually I am a meteorologist (at least that's what my degree is in). That being said, I haven't prepared a forecast in 15 years. I'm a computer geek now. ;)
