has anyone flown with an animal recently?
Comments (5)A friend just brought a kitty from NYC that we adopted, and she said that travelling with the cat was relatively painless. There were some rules about the carrier, and absorbent pads, and when they got to security they had to carry the cat through the security gates and have the carrier scanned. This cat did not have a collar on nor leash or harness and they did not know the cat. They were TERRIFIED it would run. So please be aware that you may need to remove your pet and secure it well. Luckily this cat was so terrified it went limp! They kept the cat with them on their lap, no problem, but they made sure when they were seated that nobody was allergic to it around them. They were given bulk head seating for extra space with kitty and said they got treated extra well, got off the plane first etc. Kitty arrived intact if not terrified (you would be too, torn away from pet parents, carried outside into unfamilliar areas, FLYING, and coming to some strangers house...) Luckily she seems just fine here now!...See Moreanyone collect Friendly Village china?
Comments (18)From what I understand, because the pattern and dishes have been in production so long, the color of the stamp alternated over the years. I have some sharper darker brown, dark green, and what looks like black that I believe to be newer. I also have some tan and green stamps that I believe are older. And a few that have "ironstone" in the stamp that could be the older of them all. Anything that doesn't say "made in England" is the newest stuff made in china. Check on ebay for some stamp comparisons. I also would love a collector's guide for this....See MoreWho traveled all throughout the Northeast recently?
Comments (13)Anything I need to add to our itinerary? Patience. :-) We ended up skipping the Waterbury and the Adirondakcs. I was peeved but vacation wasn't going too well right about then, so I just said "OK" and mumbled other stuff to myself. I've just posted pics randomly...plus I posted pictures on my blog all along the way. As long as you're in Freeport, you may as well go on to Bar Harbor! Gorham was beautiful, as was that intersate (can't remenmber the number?) that goes south down through eastern Vermont. At least once, we crossed back over into NH. Gorgeous area!

Comments (20)Palatine is excellent. They offer roses grafted into multiflora rootstock, and tend to specialize in roses that do well in colder climates. I have gotten good roses from Edmunds, but my routine problem has been that they (at least in the past) didn't offer the ability to select your own ship date, and inevitably shipped my bare root roses too late. So if you order from them, be sure to call and insist on a proper ship date....See Morewritersblock (9b/10a)
