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 ...
Church was very good this morning. After church, Betty, Jan, Maggie and I met up at Laport's for lunch. I had the turkey dinner. It was way too much food to eat in one sitting, so I brought most of it home with me. Their turkey dinner on Sunday when it is one of their specials is a real good deal: only twelve dollars after the senior discount is used. Our server automatically gave it to all four of us. I suggested to Betty, Jan and Maggie that we do this every Sunday after church, going to a different restaurant every Sunday. The 2022 Ladies Retreat was announced in the bulletin this morning. Unfortunately for me, it starts the day after I plan to return to Lockport after my week in Allegany State Park with Leslie. EVEN SO, I plan to go. I could leave ASP one day early. I will have to think about this more. I think I will decide to leave ASP one day early so that I can have one full day and part of anoth...
SUNDAY: I took my trash out early today and it was SO HOT, that I felt that my breath had been sucked out of me. I messaged Jan about it, since her asthma really bothers her in hot weather and I knew that she might be better off staying home from church. Church was very good, the Eastmans performed and spoke. After church, Glenda, Andrea, Marlene and I went to THE OLIVE LEAF for lunch. I had the turkey dinner, which was very good even though they did not serve my gravy on the side like I requested. I brought a lot of turkey and also my whole gen salad home. Andrea told us the story about how she and two of her kids along with other people in a church she attended in Ohio went down to New Orleans to help out after Hurricane Katrina. When I got home, I watched part of the four part documentary about it. HURRICANE KATRINA: Race Against Time. Crazy Crust Pie 1 C. flour 1/4 C. sugar 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 t...
