Thursday September 25th Was a Day From Hell (not really)

 We got up early and took the hotels shuttle to the airport. 


We went through the check in process which started with Peggy and David checking in.

and through security.  Then we used our food voucher to get breakfast, and then went to our terminal.  It was a fairly short wait. The flight went well but it was a looooong five hours before we got to Philadelphia. 

Cold drinks and cookies were served.  I was happy  to have a DR PEPPER over ice.  

When we finally landed in Philadelphia we did not have a lot of time.  We got two small pizzas from this place 


and it was very good, and they prepared it pretty quickly, which was good since we did not have a lot of time before getting on the small plane to Buffalo.  Unfortunately, we had to wait for a pilot!  This was a short trip.  When we got to Buffalo we got our luggage (thank God all of our checked bags were there).  We had to wait a little while for Mike and Janie to get there, apparently, there was a long line of cars waiting in line because several flights arrived around the same time.

When I got home, I started a load of laundry and put some of my trip stuff away.  It was FRIDAY when we arrived.

DAY EIGHT of Alaskan Cruise: Thursday, September 18, 2025 Skagway

 This was what I saw out the window when I got up. The RUBY PRINCESS had stopped and we were in Skagway!  We had breakfast at the Botticelli (I had a soft boiled egg, toast, oatmeal and a banana) and then we returned to our room to get ready for getting off the ship and going to Skagway.  We got tickets for Shuttle #10 and went down to wait to be called.  Things moved along fairly quickly. The shuttle boat was one of the lifeboats, it took us to the mainland.  This is a view of the RUBY PRINCESS from the port.   When we arrived we took a shuttle to the downtown area where we walked around a bit. The downtown area has a lot of interesting shops, etc. but we did not have time to go in many of them.  Here are a few pictures:    We found a geocaches in the library (hooray). And you can see it in this picture that I took.   We picked up a few free items from various jewelry stores.  There were a lot of jewelry stores, and we did ...

 I had the oil changed on my car this morning.  I talked with Elaine and Betty on the phone, also.   I decided it would be a good day to stock up on groceries and other items since Thanksgiving is next week and the stores will be full of people.  Also, from watching the news, I think maybe there will be another STAY AT HOME order coming soon due to the rising number of COVID cases in this area.   First I went to Aldi's where I spent close to one hundred dollars on all sorts of items including some frozen vegetables, a piece of salmon, ground beef, canned vegetables, etc.  I took those groceries home so I could get the frozen stuff into the freezer.  I made myself  a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch.  I have so much food, paper items and cleaning items that it was hard to find spots to put everything.  I still have two hundred dollars worth of SNAP benefits available.   I rested, read and watched TV the rest ...

 I got a call from Kevin K. at Northwest Bank at nine a.m. asking if I could come in and sign one more paper regarding my new SYMMETRA account.  I agreed to be at the bank at 9:45.   After that, I went to FREEDOM CHURCH for the Ladies Life Group.   Their were nine of us there and it went well.  Then five of us went out to lunch at THE OLIVE LEAF. During lunch I asked Elaine if we might be able to start up some fun things to do together on Tuesdays after Life Group.  We had started doing that a few years ago, but it never really stuck.  Elaine was very enthused about this idea.   When I got home, there was a call from the estate lawyer asking me to come in to the office and sign some forms regarding the Principal account at Key Bank.  I called and agreed to go in tomorrow morning. I tried to reach Christa by phone since I know she took today off as a "mental health day".  She did not answer, so I left a message.  She p...
