    She is eyeballing an Ineos now, we’ll see where that goes.

    Post pics of Grenadier, and wife, if you get it.

    The blue Grenadier looks pretty fuckin sweet.

    One of the pluses to staying/fishing at Hackberry Lodge south of Lake Charles is the fresh shrimp they sell at the lodge.  I’m sure other lodges in Louisiana sell shrimp as well.  They said the shrimp were not from the large commercial shrimpers that stay offshore for a week or so at a time and flash freeze the shrimp, but from local bay shrimpers.  Either way, the shrimp are fantastic.  When I used to go offshore on chartered trips from Freeport a favorite thing was to trade a case or two of beer for a sack of shrimp from the offshore shrimpers.  Not sure if that shrimp was ever frozen but it was fantastic.  I agree with the OP-never buy farm raised shrimp.  

     

    Holly Beach Seafood on 27 also buys from locals. Excellent crabs in late summer, too:

    If you know, you know.  This was terrifying as a young driver.

    Also the 90 degree turn at the other end.

    My first car was this 71 Ford Econoline van. Driving this bitch across the dam at 16 years old was hair-raising to say the least.

  4. Understanding that this guy did this for his wife.

    And then many years later, meeting my wife, and realizing I would also do something like this for her (if I was one of the greatest guitarists of all time). 


     

     

  5. In middle/highschool we would sneak onto Willie's set at night and look through the buildings. I've been gone from Austin for 12 years now- I had no idea they made it a concert venue.
