All of your posts are so nostalgic, food looks great, rooms, just everything. I don't care if you post older pictures and trips forever, saves me from having to go back and look for something (usually food), when the mood strikes. Saves me from total boredom when I'm not working. The usual highlight of my day is taking Mom for a drive into town (city) and looking at the beautiful gardens and comparing them to mine (I have a brown thumb for sure). I keep buying more plants to kill...I'm a disaster. I do have a few roses doing well, a couple of tomato plants have a few tomatoes so I may do some fried green tomatoes and make some grits, (my Dad was a Southerner) I may get adventurous and do some collard or mustard greens but I much prefer Swiss Chard.
Where I'm from is all about chile, the Chile capitol of the world. Yuck everything has green or red or Christmas....EVERYTHING, even jams and jelly, fudge and ice cream. ENOUGH already.
I did go somewhere last night that just opened, it was just too strange....I'd rather stay home than be watching over my shoulder, seeing reflections on the Plexiglas dividers, it was all just too strange. I'm fairly isolated the kids, niece and grands visit but we self distance outside. Have to watch out for my Mom mostly, due to her age. However I'm almost convinced I had it a few months ago but still being careful. Then I read constantly late in the evening after I work, my computer, Kindle and bookcases are overflowing. Last I looked I have ordered over 90 books on Kindle since the Pandemic. Luckily they are fairly cheap and I can return after I read. So you can see you are a lifesaver keeping some of us connected.
Tom Selleck? Yes please....
Nice he’s said to be very humble and kind, not any sort of usual hollywood prima Donna. A real salt of the earth guy who hands-on runs his own ranch...i could go on but it might get even more awkward lolGood to see you Tink........and just for us ladies.........
Not sure if i’m Drooling more over the hothouse tomatoes or mr Selleck

So, as of today we still have no definite news on whether this trip will go ahead, or.....it`ll turn into the longest Pre trip report in history and it`ll change to Christmas one for our later trip this year!!!
Canadians and Brits are in a little bit of limbo right now with coming in to America. I`m sure when the decision is made we`ll have peace with that whatever it is. I have no idea when America will make the decision on letting us foreigners back into the country, just hope it`s soon. Closer to home I can`t even travel up to see my family in Scotland yet!!!
Same here It's so hard to make plans when things are constantly changing.
I really hope you get to come over! We're in a weird situation too where people from our area are supposed to quarantine before going to FL. I think that order expires soon (no one seems sure), but then our governor has been talking about one for people coming back in from FL. So far planning to go to HHN as long as it goes on, but things still don't seem 100% sure yet
There is an amazing menu to choose from, some lovely crab, chicken, veal and some beautiful seafood dishes like Chilean Sea Bass and lobster.....everything we have seen always looks amazing......
Bombay Sapphire gin and tonic with olives
Lobster bisque soup
Filet medium rare
Creme brulee
That's my order at The Palm......and now I'm hungry, lol!!
I agree with everything you said about The Palm. It's a terrific restaurant that never disappoints!
Who needs poetry when we have Carole around? THIS is the stuff sonnets should be written about.
Everything looks fantastic there! Hoping everything for September works out for you, and like you said, if not...it's not meant to be. But sincerely hoping this surge gets done soon and we can all go back to drooling over your amazing pictures and descriptions!
Now off to rummage through the fridge to find something even remotely close to that LOL!
Goodness at the size of those shrimp!! I must know, did they taste good? Typically I find very large shrimp to be overcooked so they taste like rubber.
Double good vibes, and multiple fingers crossed that you are able to visit in September!!
So sad for everyone. My State is surrounded by high rates but we have been steady or in a decline since almost day one. We had no deaths for the last couple days and seem to have the Navajo Reservation under better control.
I think you'd like our food, it's a whole new cuisine of it's own, many chefs love our food and copy it whenever they can.

Maybe I was confusing, our state has a very low death rate though even 1 is too many, we are in the low hundreds with most on the reservation, low infection rate and everyone who wants it can get testing.
All of the states around us have high rates and we hope they don't visit here. We canceled a huge event scheduled in October because controlling a million plus people over a week is difficult. Our leaders here are very aggressive fighting this and are opening slowly and adjusting as needed. Craziest thing is we have one of the lower unemployment rates, lots of Federal employees and laboratories that just cannot shut down.
Weather is pretty nice here, pretty cool for us...91 today I think. We don't have beaches except at the lakes, we have a lot of rivers and of course the mountainous areas are usually cool
Yes, I found the pink gin!Oh I wish I liked regular gin!!! A gin and tonic always seems so civilised........now pink gin!! Did you ever get any of that stuff?
That meal would do me quite happily........
We love Ocean Prime, but do have say they have overcooked our steaks once or twice, always corrected it of course.......The Palm never have. Perfect every time.........
