dyk which Univ of MD campus did you go to?


dyk 3 of my nephews went to Univ of MD College Park


dyk It could be an option for Kayleigh as well since they have a good animal sciences program


dyk that would give me an excuse for frequent visits to my sister!


dyk I figure if Kayleigh goes there, her best friend Rebecca can go to since they have a great theater department, one of my nephews was a theater major and is now a grad student at Northwestern

dyk nope the kids have not gone canoeing without an adult


dyk Kayleigh isn't prepared to handle a canoe through the rapids on her own and be sure her brother is still in the boat, she's only gone canoeing once


dyk I figure when we all go together, it'll be Dh and Ian in one canoe, Kayleigh and I in the other


dyk if someone gets into trouble, you can't really just hop out while going through

dyk no more sleeping with the windows wide open!


dyk I know it's always warmer down in MD than it is here when I go down in October


dyk sort of like a 2nd brief taste of summer LOL

dyk I don't blame you for wanting to stay home


dyk I feel badly for the wedding couple!


dyk what an awful thing to be predicted for your wedding day


dyk I'll be keeping you and your neighbors in my thoughts and hoping the storm won't be too severe and you'll all be safe


dyk We've had very few fullblown hurricanes here, the one I remember most is Gloria in 1985


dyk I was in Florida when Hurricane David hit in 1979


dyk So when Gloria came, I knew how to tape windows, etc.

DYK too funny about your camping souvenir ;-)


DYK my DH use to also go camping at Assateague during the summer, mostly August...one yr my girls asked about going


DYK once they realized there would be no A/C they were not so keen on the idea of summer beach camping?


DYK I've only been camping in the fall, never beach camping but I suspect even I would not like it during August either
