Tropical Depression

Okay folks, this is making me nervous: Good morning, Happy Friday to all!! The vanguard of the 2011 hurricane season has passed with the first 3 named storms in the books and TS Don winding his way towards the Northern Mexican/South Texas border. Don's time to reach minimal hurricane status is almos...

Josephine's

What kind of vegetables can you buy at Josephine's? We are headed down week after next and wondered what fresh vegetables we could buy there as opposed to buying at one of the markets.

US Air Fare Sale

US Air has dropped the price on fares from Norfolk, VA for summer travel! Looks like a really good deal....much better than what we paid in February for our August trip.
