  1. I get that the curriculum may differ a bit but what other than that distuinguishes Daycares from Private School that would fall under the new Abbot / county orders?
  2. ACC has about 800 golfing members so it's a real whip with only having 1 course. Sure it's nice but if you are farther out West AGC is really special too. The high end courses in Dallas are more expensive than similar ones in Austin but there are way more to choose from so there are plenty in all types of price ranges.
  3. And all of a sudden the "daycares" that classified themselves as Pre K school are probably rethinking that right now
  4. Per a realtor I just talked to the inventory in Austin is less than 1 month which is making things move really fast. My neighbor's house was listed last Thur and same day he had 2 offers. Talked to the person buying it and they had already lost 5 previously to higher bidders.
  5. Yet, that’s the plan for professional sports. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. How many hills are you going to climb and how far are you going? I have the Xiaomi one mentioned above and it's been fine... Could use a little more power on steeper hills but it get's the job done for the most part and easier to carry. You can lock it from the app which does not keep someone from carrying it away but does keep someone from riding off on it. One thing you want to decide on is the tires... mine has air which means they can go flat but on the flip side it absorbs shock a bit better. I have a friend with the Unagi and he really like that one despite it being quite a bit more expensive.
  7. I normally just turn on Disney+ in Spanish to feel better about the learning opportunity I'm providing. In all seriousness though I'm not sure how you can adequately navigate the current situation. I'm not for kids missing out on a year of proper education and instead trying to unnaturally force things to happen online but I totally understand the risks of putting kids in classes to parents, teachers and friends. I really don't think (especially at the younger grades) limiting capacity will do that much good since kids are inherently nasty and will spread this things to each other, then they will take it home. And if you are not allowing them to be in class M-F then the days they are home their will be even more exposure since they are going to team up with a different set of kids in learning pods or go to some other child care situation.
  8. $NKLA up 41% today... now that’s Stonk! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Are you guys buying? I've got 10K share chunks out there for you to come get.
  10. Finished product looks great and has a really nice smoke ring. You didn't wrap at all? What type of fuel did you use?
  11. Tell me once you figure it out. I added more $NKLA yesterday as well and just keep watching $ALPP
  12. All those cities you mentioned are much more expensive to live in than Austin...
  13. $NKLA having a wild week right now. Up 25% today.
  14. I really meant that to be you are just trying to play and don't care who you are playing with. Post COVID our tee sheets are pretty full during the week but before that there were lots of tee times that no one was playing and you could go out on your own.
  15. You don't join a golf club because it makes sense financially. But if you are really just planning on going out and playing solo then you are probably correct in not joining. If you appreciate getting to know a group of golfers, being active in an MGA, playing the tournaments or enjoy the adult activities they have then it becomes a lot more interesting.
  16. Just like you mentioned... they asked if I was interested in seat relocation and just said they are waiting until they know more about capacity limits before offering this later in the summer.
  17. Manor is an absolute whip anyway... I've parked there a few times and unless you can just leave your car there or continue to tailgate for a few more hours post game you basically just sit in line trying to get out forever. But agreed on the tailgating scene, everything is under construction and all those lots of the past are gone. Saving grace for me has been hanging around the fountain and the LCL pre game if not the Alum center.
  18. Although Manor was showing 70 spots available yesterday I don't think you could actually select them as they were being saved... maybe for those that have accessibility needs? I used to get Yellow all the time as well but stopped in the last few years and instead just Uber back and forth. My confidence is low that the season will happen so even buying parking in a shitty garage to sell later seems like a fruitless effort. This is going to be such a beat down. Edit: A quick check on StubHub and people are asking $367 for Purple $400 for East Garage and $1500 for Navy.
  19. I've seen several clubs put tee times up on GolfNow as a recruiting tool and generate broader awareness when they do not have a full golfing membership. Once that does fill up I think that stops or is at least limited to just a few slots in the weekdays. Barton Creek does this by way of resort patrons except you also get to pay $80K for that pleasure.
  20. Waiters, Grocery clerks, food delivery folks. There are plenty of people who are at risk whose job would not have been considered “putting their life on the line” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Other than golf and being able to take into a variety of courses what else are you looking for? Active MGA? Tournaments? Family friendly activities? Dinners/Date night events. How old are you/kids and are you hoping to find people in those similar age ranges to hang with at the club?
  22. Lost Creek is $5K to join and $515 a month for Full Golf. If you are <40 then you can join for $2500 and dues are a bit less. If you want the ability to play other Club Corp courses it probably another $85 a month on top. RiverPlace, Onion Creek and Twin Creeks are all part of Arcis therefore you have a similar network of courses you can play beyond your home one. Arcis was going to put some money into these courses and the dues have gone up a little but I think they still might be around $5k to join RP. Twin Creeks might be a bit more as I've heard they have a very active golfing membership. Carts run a dollar a hole or you can buy a yearly pass upfront. No min on food/bev purchases. Other than Barton Creek the options above would give you the most access to other courses in the area.
  23. Paying extra for parking is new though correct? I thought i just got to select parking passes as part of the renewal Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
