  1. Atm card or do I have to bring paper weight?
  2. You should go to Gatlinburg.
  3. Yeah the transfer companies were quite clear on that. 😂 It's plastered all over their websites and called out again in bold on the confirmation they sent me..
  4. Gonna need more pics of that hoss.
  5. I think this place is a great resource for someone like you. Describe exactly what you're looking for and I guarantee you that you will have some folks who come through with great advice. You just have to know how to weed your way through it. I don't think a cruise is what you all are looking for. My .02. I will let others recommend what that might be.
  6. I don't think your kids know what they're asking for. Regardless of what approach you take they are not going to have many peers on that boat. Alaska or Europe you are going to have a ton of old people. Domestic you are going to have a trailer park at sea.
  7. Ok making progress on the transfer and car rental front. Carm is setting me up with airport to ferry (plus bottle water for the family and a dos x for me), ferry tickets, pick up from ferry and transport to American car rental at the airport. There is a shuttle from the car rental to take us back to the airport. I booked the car online, I booked the full size with a manual. To my surprise they didn't take a credit card for the reservation. If I pay in advance through the site, am I going to get beaten up with the exchange rate? Speaking of, I recall reading in this thread about not using your cc to pay for stuff on the island. I hate carrying cash. That really my only option? Also not thrilled with the idea of having to stop at a grocery store or bank to pull out a bunch of cash once we land. I don't mind a lazy tax of a few bucks if I can exchange at a bank before I leave, but a couple hundred bucks lazy tax is a bridge too far. What is my best bet?
  8. I upgraded my pixel 8 to the 9 pro a few months back. Something tweaked during the transfer process and my text history did not come over. I did not notice until after I already factory reset the 8. I am doubtful but anyone know of any way to restore that history from the cloud or somewhere?
  9. Timely. Went for a walk this morning and the rain came in hard. Trix was not happy when we got home. PXL_20250618_162343349.mp4
  10. 😂 This is Trixie. Definitely the pyr in her. I haven't tried to get her "swimming" yet but I don't think it is happening.
  11. I need to nail down transfers and car rental for late July for 4 of us. Any experience with Cancun Valet? That's who wood's guy sent me to. Is there a preferred safe rental car company? Will need to get from the airport to the island, then a few days later off the island and to the rental car, and then of course rental car back to airport.
  12. Any Florida beach thread should have input from @Brew
  13. Trixie with her "best friend" in the neighborhood who I don't think really likes her very much. But Willow is a good sport..
  14. Crossing Italy off of the bucket list.
  15. Someone from surly needs to buy this thing. https://www.reddit.com/r/smoking/comments/1lah4ly/look_at_this_monster_i_found_on_marketplace/
  16. It's a Derka joke. I assume you're in on it but I don't want anyone thinking I have any issues with beautiful black women of any skin tone. Now the fat ones... That's an entirely different story...(kidding)
  17. This show is fun (so far). I feel sorry for you if you don't like fun.
  18. Any of the females light skin with frizzy hair by chance?
  19. I'm going to watch it. But if you gave me 45 minutes in a boxed in white room with no noise and asked me to tell you one thing that happened in the last season I would come up empty.
  20. I like bad action movies but I didn't like this one. Stupid shit.
  21. Our family calendar in the kitchen serves up randomized photos from my Google photos account. A few years back I had taken all of my family's printed photos from my parents house and digitized them with Scancafe. In a The Hills Have Eyes moment today a photo popped up from probably 1981 of the Liberty Belle. I went digging and there were some pretty funny old photos from Magic Kingdom. I may have mentioned it earlier but my Mom spent her teenage and early adult years living in Orlando. Once she moved to MI and had a family, we would go visit my grandparents 1-2x per year, and apparently hit Disney every year. Most of these will be from late 70s/early 80s. I was born in 77 and I believe I'm about 1 in the earliest of these pictures. Nightmare fuel early Elsa? I cannot figure out where this was taken from. On top of the Royal Carousel? Sis and I with Bre'r Bear. Terrifying. 20k Leagues Under the Sea. I believe this was either where Ariel's grotto and Under the Sea is today. I don't understand where the pic was taken from but maybe from the same spot as the pic of the back of the castle? Mom from I guess what would be the contemporary? Bite your tongues she's almost 80. Pops. Lol. I guess they used to have bands playing on the parking shuttle from the TTC. Not pictured: Shuttle driver Mr. Phlegm. Liberty Belle Pirates Main Street Parade
  22. Roger that. Yeah it was odd. That interview with Anson Boon kind of alludes to him running off after getting humbled by Kiko and Zosia. We shall see.
  23. I think part of the problem for some of us that didn't play the games is we actually liked the show in S1 independently of the games, and don't give a shit about the show following any sort of a script. Unfortunately the show has a master to follow and it's the games. Which I don't care about, at all.
