Hi, I am new to delta and but have accumulated lots of delta miles last year. My travel plans are in 2016 to Europe/Singapore/Hongkong/China/Australia/NewZealand. Any tricks to mitigate the impact of the new rules kicking in next month?

That looks like my parents' back yard. Which is actually inside the city limits of GRR, and they're on about year five of the fight with the city about what to do with the excess deer that follow the creek out of the nature center to behind their house. City claims there are 'less than 10' deer in the entire watershed including the nature center even after dad has sent them pictures of 20+ of them in the neighbor's side yard eating the hostas.

This is on a barrier beach island and there's no hunting so they stroll around with impunity. After Sandy, the vegetation was devastated and there was a thinning of the herd but they're back in force.
Sandy also wiped out much of the food supply for our foxes. Our community was cleaned up by FEMA crew from Southern California who started feeding them. The result is that they follow you around looking for handouts. We have a vixen denned under our deck who parades her kits for us. The good thing is that they keep the property free of mice and other vermin.

I am getting tired of the "Post Quick Reply" button hanging up and finding my post gone when I refresh the screen ... the button then works fine, and I find that it actually DID post so I have to apologize for double-posting ...
