sunny, another nola get together would be fun! I'm going to be there the weekend of July 11-13. My daughter turns 21 on july 4 and we're going to celebrate it in a couple of the bourbon st balcony rooms at the royal sonesta! Of course she'll be wanting to hit the bars too! And she wants her mom there with her and her friends (just to pay the hotel room bill i'm sure :lol: )

Oh nice Mama!! I don't want to intrude on your daughter's BD celebrations, but I'll PM you my number in case you'd like to have a drink or something.

The last time I was on Bourbon was Mardi Gras Day. I had a couple storm chaser friends in from Ireland and it was, *ahem*, interesting to say the least. Boy were they working that Irish charm too :ggreen:

"Richfield is a village in Washington County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 10,373 at the 2000 census, at which time it was a town. On November 6, 2007, Richfield voters approved the town's incorporation as a village by a margin of 3 to 1. The town became a village on February 13, 2008."

I was born in Lakenheath, England (father was in the military), didn't spend too long there before moving back home to the Florida panhandle where I've lived for the past 15 years.

And I'm also new to the forums obviously, finally found somewhere I can discuss my weird fascination with weather with others.lol
