Good morning everyone. Today I am getting my hair done. Plus I've got to get in touch with friends and family to let them know we're leaving. My cousin from England and her husband were coming the first two weeks of May. We had planned to see one of the last (the last?) shuttle launches and we were going to take them to all our favourite places. My friend from Canada and her family were coming in March..... she comes every year. I have the sadz. :(

Don't be sad. There's lots to see and do in DC also. Omg the spring in DC is beautiful because of all the blossoms. People who visit you... free museums remember? I mean you can just walk up and down going into all sorts of neat places. You can visit the museum of the American indian and see my peeps. :lol:

Sorry to hear about the gal stones Marylin So, my mom's in town... YAY! Except she brought her friend with her and her friend is SUPER selfish. Last night her friend said "we're going to Olive Gar

There certainly is lots in DC. We went there as part of our honey moon. Oh..and if you can, it' only about 4 hours to Williamsburg VA. Great history there. Jamestown, and Yorktown. I quite enjoyed it. I can't wait to go back to VA and DC to see more!! Tim and I were in the American History Museum in DC.

We were there all day. 3 floors!! :blink: And we only really saw two exhibits because of all the information. ( And I thought the museum in Victoria was good!!)

Ummmm what's this about the last shuttle launch? I'm sure Tim hasn't heard anything about it, and I KNOW he'd want us to go see it. He went years ago to watch one. Said it was incredible.

Haha. I'll just look at my friends who were visiting in March and see your peeps. :)

I'm mostly sad because I was excited to share some special places we have found here in Fla. Oh well. Eventually I'll find new special places to share. lol

Ummmm what's this about the last shuttle launch? I'm sure Tim hasn't heard anything about it, and I KNOW he'd want us to go see it. He went years ago to watch one. Said it was incredible.

I just looked it up. The final night launch is February 7th. 2010 marks the end of the space shuttle launches. The last one is scheduled for September. Here is the launch schedule:

February 7th - final night launch

March 18th

May 14th (this is the one my cousins were coming for)

July 29th

September 16th.

Bah.. :unsure:

I believe you can track USPS until it crosses the border. Then go on to the Canada Post, and enter the same tracking number..it will still work.. :thumbs:

At least it did for me last year when I was waiting for all that important info from Tim for my interview.

I just looked it up. The final night launch is February 7th. 2010 marks the end of the space shuttle launches. The last one is scheduled for September. Here is the launch schedule:

Great, thanks! I'm afraid we'll be missing the Feb 7th one.. :( We're already going to be busy that week, which is a shame because the 8th is my B'day and what a nice gift that would have made!

I'm sure we'll catch one of these!!

Well, at least the days are starting to get longer. :)

I noticed that!! Yay!!!

And it's a nice warm week here in the South!! Almost like spring now... :)

Your post office won't track? I just did all mine online.

Well, Canada Post tracked the one Tim sent, that's when I found out you could do it... :blush: That was close! I got all that info the day before my interview!!

the Post office DIDN'T give you a tracking number?? How was it sent? When I sent AOS, I sent receipt requested, ( or what ever that's called..:lol:) and got a tracking number. I'm sure sending regular mail, you won't get one, but I'm sure you didn't send it like that..

ok..now I'm confused... :wacko::blink:

Well then there you go, take them to the museum of the American indian to see their peeps too! Except skip the gift shop... it gets a little tasteless in there. :lol:

I understand though, it's hard to move, and you're used to the area you're in. But now you have the adventure of finding new places.

Look I even found you some wineries in the area:
