Hope you all have a great day!

Nothing but Good Morning Abby -
How I dislike driving in the rain. Please be careful and drive safely.

OK, spunky, I’m ready for NOTHING but action. Ready to be On The Road Again. Maybe I should write a song.

After 500 miles, it sounds like you are already committed. I assume you are on your way to the Garden State which is probably somewhere about 900 miles or so? Did you decide to stay in a hotel? Remember, much better to be safe than sorry. We want you and Mrs. N nothing but back here in TV in one piece.

I’m having a hard time getting getting the bed from this hotel in the car. Wowser, it’s the greatest. We have NOTHING but a Posture Pedic at the Love Shack but this one Blows The Posture Pedic outta the water. No aches and pains. Just wonderful. This has been a Public Service Announcement from Points Unknown. I am going to try to get the name of the bed.

It would have been NOTHING but foolish to keep going last night. Total insanity on the road. Mrs Nuck was shocked when I pulled the plug on PeeWee’s Great Adventure. I’ll stay over another night if necessary, safety first, the three older boys still think I’m a youngster. Only at heart.

BK001 12-21-2018 06:42 AM

It has nothing but rained and rained and rained here. I thought my Lanai was going to float away. The pool level is almost to the top and the Spa was close to overflowing. (I know, could be worse -- could be snow!) . For that I am grateful. More scattered showers today and then Saturday and Sunday should be sunny.

Good call. Prayers that the rest of your trip is nothing but uneventful and clear sailing. Saiiling? :1rotfl: I meant that metaphorically. LOL . Keep dry!

That would be NOTHING but a catchy title. Be safe!

If it was snow we would be buried. I am so done with that. I love Florida in the summer but I NOTHING but LOVE Florida in the winter.

Good morning FW - I hear you but for me, any day that I can't jump into my pool is a disappointment. I erroneously thought that all of Florida was hot year-long and "brutal" during July and August. What a surprise to have 40 - 55 degree days. I was not prepared for this. Hubby though keeps it in perspective and will say, "You know if we were up North now you would think it's a beautiful day". He's right -- I'm just nothing spoiled by those warm Florida days.

In addition to bacon I don't like pools either. Any house that had a pool was an instant turn off for me and I don't golf either. I guess I am NOTHING but a stick in the mud.

207, 204 views now as of 12/20/2018 8:37AM EST. It picked up from yesterday. :bigbow::popcorn:

Lots of new movies opening tomorrow and many of them I want to see are at the Rialto and only at the Rialto.

That was the only theater open when we moved here in June of 2005. The Old Mill Playhouse opened its doors around November of 2005.

Rather slow day on NOTHING yesterday. 207, 785 views as of 12/21/2018 8:54 AM.

And now 207, 809 as of 8:57 AM EST.

Forded a washed out road to get here, computers and phones just went down, and my tech is leaving early today. Should make for NOTHING but an interesting day. NOTHING may end up being my refuge.....

In the meantime, glad you and the Mrs are safe, K, and that you didn't have any damage to your property from what I gather.

I would be NOTHING but making everyone's life miserable if they changed my longest day to Friday. Traffic on Friday nights is unbearable.

I used to be Superman too. Driving for 18 hours straight to visit the family in California. Now I break it into two days and even take a longer more scenic route. Being retired gives you NOTHING but options on how long you take to get there.

Have a safe trip, Nuckles..
