Thank you again so much for everything you’ve done for me and my family.

If you ever need to Gilmer (or anyone), there are great apps out there for translating text-to-speech and speech-to-text. I'm using a lot of voice dictation nowadays.

This may sound ghoulish, but this is my favorite thread on SR -- the one I actually look forward to reading every time I open. There's nothing here but good souls.

xxxooo

We have arrived at the deep downtown crab establishment! So psyched!

Now, THAT'S funny, Trach!

V-man, thank you for the pictures and the candles. I would love to see that place.

Kathy, I picture you in your glory and third bib, still working on the "all you can eat" part. Enjoy!

She'll be coming out in an Old Boston spice coma, shell fragments in her hair, big smile on her face.

I’m on the way home.

I don’t want to get carsick, but I will say that I have tales to tell!

Hi Gilmer, you going off to have fresh crab today brought this to mind. I think it will bring a smile to your face!

Not Old Boston, Trach—Old BAY Seasoning, as in Chesapeake Bay.

People from Massachusetts have nothing but disdain for crabs!

Shades of Freudian slips. Old Mr. Boston mixers, right. Old Bay spices.

Forgive, down here we use Zatarain's.

Did you get all the shell off you?

I'm glad you had fun today, Gilmer and that the computer issue is solved.

Man, thank you for the beautiful photos.

Vman - It was wonderful to see the beautiful pics. I always wanted to visit there after reading The Song of Bernadette (& seeing the movie).

Kathy - I'm delighted the computer thing worked out & you enjoyed your crabby adventure.

Those pictures are lovely, Vinny. I wish I could go to Lourdes.

I was not expecting it to be so accommodating to visitors. I guess I expected it to be more sauvage, more like what I saw in The Song of Bernadette!

Things have progressed way beyond the 1800s, though!

I’m glad it is so welcoming to so many from around the world.

More crab exploits tomorrow.

Turns out I have been having a magnificent and groundbreaking discussion all afternoon long with my middle son. Family background from all angles that puts a lot of things into perspective for him.

Plus lots of philosophizing about life.

A cigar well spent!

Have a good day/evening, everyone!
