I am using a flight I took a year ago to Dallas which was I believe about 3.5 hours. Nobody and I mean nobody reclined on both flights so I assumed that was the norm. In looking into this I am seeing it's much more common for longer flights. No way I am flying to SD sitting upright. I was...
When I fly nobody reclines, on some airlines they have removed this option. If you do you are really screwing up the person behind you because he or she is not reclining and their tight quarters got smaller, your seat is now in their lap. This is seriously frowned up. Now if everyone reclined...
Great idea for a thread. Unfortunately I will have no big trips to post about. I don't ever want to take a big trip again, too much stress and I am avoiding stress. Flying is now an awful experience of boredom and sitting in uncomfortable seating from the moment you leave your house until you...
I was actually good with those signings because I knew they had played at a high level in the league. Kinlaw has never done that and is now on his 3rd team. I'm concerned Peters is weighing his pre-draft evaluaton over his actual NFL production.
I don't mind continuing here if others don't.
I checked rooms in South Beach and then Hollywood and some others. I'm using November 11th or around that date. I'm finding the rooms are really cheap, a decent basic motel with good ratings was $84/night. Better options were no more than $150...
I know I know that was my first thought. Nothing more beautiful on Earth than the water of the Caribbean. But I do want to visit friends and see the Keys and don't want to deal with customs etc. Florida is close to that water, just need to know where.
So anyone familiar with South Florida? I am planning a trip and want to stay on or a block from the beach. I've also never seen the Keys or Everglades. But I don't want to stay in the Keys, it's really expensive and there are few if any sandy beaches. I just want to see them and experience a...
I went to a dinner party, the wife passed to visit her sister, that started with apps at 4:00. By 7:30 the group was leaving. As this friend was only 17 minutes away and it was July 5th it was still light for another hour and a half and I had a Saturday evening after attending a dinner party. It...
I would hate to kill rabbits as I mowed. When I mowed our field after waiting far too long I hit a number of box turtles and learned if you shave off the top of their shell it kills them. Yesterday I was in the same situaiton due to a beach trip and I nearly hit another turtle. This caused me...
Update. One of my favorite days of the year got better when I learned that 2 young people in the group wanted to go crabbing. So after a few hours I was dropped off and they came on board which allowed me to go the beach for a few hours before the nap. I learned that rinsing off in an outdoor...
Well the boat didn't sink and we are about to go crabbing here in South Bethany. Friend knows what he is doing with a 1,000 foot trotline. Crabbing, then a bike ride followed by a nap and eventually a table full of crabs is my favorite day of the year.
Congrats RedWolf.
Some wild weather here in South Bethany. Hot as Hell on the beach yesterday, then a storm blew through and dropped the temps big time. Today was not as hot but an even bigger storm is finishing up now. My friend brought his jon boat to go crabbing, it's so full of water he...
I would hate to be famous. People will gawk at you while you eat and tell friends if you spill your water. I'd hate to have people telling others I was a dick but it could happen if the guy interrupted me on an important phone call or whatever.
Out of curiosity I looked up the annual snowfall in Maryland towns. Silver Spring gets 20" Mount Airy 28". Oakland near Deep Creek gets over 100". By comparison Cortex, Colorado gets 30".
Everyone else hates this hot weather but I love it. Been waiting 9 months for hot days and warm summer nights. Ahhhhhhhh. Took the dog to the swimming hole to throw her a few sticks today, then romped with her in the stream. Tomorrow I may play 9 holes, 100 degrees does not bother me and...
