As for my day – off to Vancouver for dinner and scholarship reading with Helene and Natan.
Hello from Palm Springs….61 and overcast here as opposed to 59 and party cloudy at home in Olympia!
Two questions:
1) What are you gonna do with all that shipboard space other than perhaps fill it with soap suds from a specialty soap shop (…shades of the last trip to nowhere)?
2) How come I don’t get to review scholarship applicants no more; i liked that!
