I’ve been seeing red tomatoes 🍅 almost ready for picking and then poof they disappear. Moved a camera & sure enough found who’s disappearing them 🤣
Cancelled and rebooked quite a bit today
Illinois Conservation Police are seeking the public’s help determining what happened prior to a fatal boat crash Saturday afternoon on the lower Fox River in McHenry County.
Conservation police are leading the investigation and are asking to hear from anyone who witnessed the crash, observed either vessel before or after the collision, or may have information related to the incident. Investigators welcome any photographs or video taken in the area around the time of the crash, including cell phone video, security camera footage or video recorded while boating on the Fox River.
Witnesses can contact conservation police at DNR.LawReception@illinois.gov or by completing the online incident report form here: https://dnr2.illinois.gov/OLETIPHotline/
One person died in the crash, which occurred about 2:30 p.m. Saturday. Authorities are seeking DUI-related charges against one of the boat operators, who is scheduled to appear in court this afternoon. The investigation is ongoing, and no additional information is available at this time.
We are finding one of her 6 kits stuck in our dumpster most mornings so thought I’d set a camera temporarily to help us know when that happens. Well setting the camera on a solar light was a silly move on my part as I didn’t realize the investigation team would be all over it literally. This is funny 😆
The eye triggered late so didn’t get them approaching - 60 seconds later is the last kit who’s always trying to catch up 🤣 his scamper video is in the comments
Ps it was a replacement chain for a chainsaw so thank goodness wasn’t consumable
Heading to Sheboygan 7/16-7/19 to spend quality time with grown children and the 5 grands.
Any locals know of bakeries that make donut holes ? They work really great for young kiddos vs long John etc. I read google reviews and pursued photos but not seeing them offered .
Thoughts ?
Thank you
Camera triggers right after Grizabella scurries by so we only get to see the 5 ….. 6 kits.
There were 2 bands of nasty thunderstorms overnight, so she waited until almost 1am after they passed.
Ps I need to get rid of the annoying spider web thread in front of camera eye.
Mom and her kits adventures
Shortly after Solstice came out of dry dock this Spring - there seemingly were complaints about Blu on various social platforms.
It sounds like Blu Is larger.
It sounds like due to so many more Aqua class cabins - dining experience isn’t as good as it was previously.
It sounds like Blu’s kitchen is different location now.
It sounds like many aren’t happy they can no longer order from the MDR menu items unless it’s a classic entree.
It sounds like service isn’t consistent along with not being seated consistently with same server.
Thoughts from those who sailed Aqua on Solstice after refurb and dined in Blu ?
Thank you
I had joined up to contribute via surveys for Celebrity a few months ago. In the meantime there’s been a couple of them. I found this beginning description a bit odd - but I did read “venue” as “revenue” at first 🤣
She turns back like … “do I have all of them?” lol
Heading out for foraging lesson - watch for last little scamper 🥰
Hoping the other 3 are ok
An adult raccoon was jumping up on our stoop at one corner - walking across the stoop to other side and then jump back down most evenings throughout the winter (Illinois).
It looked old and tired to me - I even started looking up data about how long raccoons live etc.
I affectionately named her after the character in CATS that’s old and sings “Memories”.
Anyhoo fast forward to 3 evenings ago (hadn’t noticed her for quite a while) and up she jumps at corner of the stoop and this time she’s being followed by littles ! Some of them had to make a few attempts at the stoop before achieving success with one giving up and following around a bush.
I put up a game camera at our place kinda guessing the path they’d take and sure enough I got them returning just after 5am after a night of schooling foraging.
Pretty certain den is at next door neighbors with our dumpster readily available to mom.
So ……. No wonder she looked haggard & tired - she’s got at least 6 kits 😳. What pregnant gal wouldn’t look haggard carrying that many?
I’ve got a few different cameras & plan to try to get some video of them.
Happy to be a host to their foraging route but we do blast music & keep lights on in our barn to deter them from using it as a den.
I am in no way an advocate for Celebrity insurance - BUT at least now the coverage offered provides a reasonable coverage - effective 06/01/2026
I have not noticed what a piece of work Jason Galvin is !
Just prior to Q3 for funny car a few minutes ago I couldn’t believe that Jason Galvin said “pardon me” to Courtney Enders literally standing in the booth next to one another.
Jason seemingly perhaps had memorized an update as to where Matt Hagan stands this year & midway through Courtney just threw in “a big one” in reference to Charlotte win.
Jason looks at Courtney and gives her a “pardon me”.
WHAT ?!?!?
She’s a wealth of knowledge and a small interjection seriously didn’t warrant that from Jason.
I so very much dislike him as of today - never had a strong opinion previously.
Photo grabbed of broadcast right after she turned away from looking at him after his reprimand.
Thoughts !?!?
There was a thread earlier this week about this - as its original port to disembark today was to be first time using Seward new port - it’s not ready
Ship is currently headed to Whittier instead
Looking at renting an Airbnb just north of Langara Golf course prior to boarding a cruise ship the next day.
Any places to grab a dinner in that area ?
Thank you
