  1. I wouldn’t turn up my nose to this though (Viking restaurant)
  2. Speaking of the much missed government cheese, in my lab at my work there are some items of old science learning aids that are packed in those long gray govt cheese boxes.
  3. Yeah. I know a bunch of people who earn their living due to Disney travel and it is pretty much impossible to score park reservations right now. The thinking is in a few weeks they expand capacity which should help a little. I think you picked a good time to do the other trip.
  4. Yeah. I didn’t know about the lack of forests until we started researching this trip. The upside for me is I studied geology for my undergraduate so even without the active volcano it is a geologists dream.
  5. There is a reason why they eat so many hot dogs
  6. I am definitely trying it. Our 14 y.o. daughter is in for an interesting experience. She doesn't eat much seafood (fried clams and calamari are about it). But she is willing to try. I'm not a huge lamb eater so the seaood will be my go to
  7. Yeah, Sunday, Tues (maybe) + Weds look like summah
  8. Flights and hotels / AirBnBs are cheap, but car rental, gas, and food/booze are $$$ Things we are planning on doing.. Glacial kayak tour Icelandic horses Golden Circle Volcano (hopefully) Viking restaurant Diamond beach / basalt columns Lots of waterfalls. Not sure we are doing any pools/ Blue Lagoon...
  9. We had a rescue lab named Kona who lived 15 years. Huge muscular beast with an attitude. He mellowed with age and love. We too came home one day and he couldn't get up. I stayed by his side the whole night and he couldn't move his legs. His tail was thumping the whole time. So hard to say goodbye. We went 2 years without a dog and then adopted another rescue lab-ish pup. She is so happy. I don't enjoy walking her in late May/early June due to mosquitoes, but I do it.
  10. I will send him the electric bill.
  11. Just barely touched 80F here (79.8) but the sun was pretty hot Our son installed all of the ACs lol
  12. Just booked our Iceland flights. Hope the volcano is still going in August. I am so pumped to go
  13. Maybe there is no difference? Chariot of the Gods and all
  14. A bit of old news but my sister who lives in N RI had a 4+ acre brushfire come within 5 feet of her attached garage last week. Ironically started by accident by an off duty firefighter
  15. 82.0F high here. Nice late spring day. Big AN departure. Pollen sucks though.
  16. My bedroom cooled to 70F when I went to bed and it was 65 in there when I got up. My downstairs was a bit chilly
  17. If it gets hot I will. My house is 74 right now. It will be in the low 60s by morning
  18. March is what tipped the scales. That was warm and dry. If it wasn’t going to snow at least it was pleasant. Late April and early May were garbage. I think I had 8+ straight days with at least some rain
  19. I think he has been right for March,April and so far in May... For ORH they were +4.4 for March +1.9 for Napril so far +0.4 for May but that will climb quite a bit for the next several days
  20. I wish you luck. Be ready to pull the trigger once it is worth $500? $5000? I wouldn't know when to get off
  21. Cannibis infused seltzers? That’s a thing?
  22. Kids are gross in general. They won’t catch the ‘vid from a pair of scissors or a beaker
  23. We are thinking of doing snorkeling along a fissure in Iceland this summer. That’s pretty much what you gotta wear
  24. I’ve been able to do close to a dozen “hands on” lab activities since February. When we were in hybrid mode the number of kids per class was low so I could more easily do the labs (washing equipment etc in between groups). When they all came back it was harder. A ton of modifications. This will allow more kids to do it.
