  1. And I know some stuff as I built my own pool awhile back and acted as a GC on my most recent one.
  2. And they don't know shit either. They talk about the humidity in the Rockies and at the same time talk about needing water. That is because Salt Lake, Santa Fe, Boulder, Spokane/Sandpoint all have about half the humidity of Seattle during the summer while those east coast places have roughly the same humidity levels. I lived in Capitola (next to Santa Cruz) for a decade and its humidity level is about 25% lower than Seattle in July. Seattle isn't nice in July because of the humidity level. It is nice in July in spite of the humidity level and part of that is because of the respite from the wet Seattle winters. And I could not care less about the subject and would prefer to talk football.
  3. I grew up in Houston so maybe that comes into play but Northern Wisconsin and the UP are beautiful in the summer. And there is no way that Santa Fe is hot and humid in the summer. It has a higher elevation than Denver and it is in a fucking desert.
  4. He says he wants to play closer to home (Birmingham). So who enticed him, Mississippi State or Alabama?
  5. In this case, I don't know if it would matter.
  6. Wisconsin, Illinois, all the Rockies and lots of places on the East coast

  8. In the flu's defense, we deserved it.
  9. A lot of kids liked listening to Atom Ant records, but it didn't make Howard Morris famous.
  10. I ended up speaking with my real estate agent. It was pretty similar to what you said. There was a Grizzly attack in whitefish where the bear broke into a house and killed a woman, but she was fairly confident that there was more to the story. There are more grizzlies as you head towards Glacier so on the West side it is mainly black bears. She lived at the top of Mountain next to her mom and she barely saw any bears other when they did stupid things like leave food out. But her mom who was Nextdoor had lots of issues. Her mom had fruit trees though. And she had 3 terrier that made lots of noise. overall, she thought it would be fine to have an island grill in a sun room. Trash seems to be a bigger issue than grills. And if the grill is cleaned and kept in the enclosure, they probably wouldn’t mess with it.
  11. I was hoping that he would jump on to tell me how big of a nuisance bears are. Obviously, he cooks all the time in his cabin but doesn't have a bear problem. OTOH, we haven't heard from him in awhile.
  12. I had to google. Was she a childhood actress or did she just become famous as an activist? Would she make the news if she died?
  13. or just trying to get a rise out of @texifornia.
  14. I thought he was interested in academics.
  15. Well, that most definitely sucks.
  16. Yeah, I need to know that, too.
  17. Somebody has to drive this thread to 1000. Shit sticks sure the fuck ain't gonna cut it.
  18. No HEB is a problem. We make a ton of stuff with the green chili stew and shredded chicken although it seems the wife prefers my tomatillo sauce in some of the recipes.
  19. I still think the minisplit is the best idea. A 12,000 BTU unit costs about $1000 and they aren't difficult to install. It will add value to the home and it is easy to control to make it comfortable or just enough to prevent freezing. So just do it right once and never have to fuck with it again.
  20. Do any of you guys know bear country? Maybe the builder would know, but I'm wondering what is a problem and what isn't a problem. I've heard trash is a problem, but if you put the trash in the garage, I've heard about cases like: Still, I think the garage is the answer. I don't have any clue on when people put trash out for pickup or if there is pickup. And we are doing an addition next year (so I'll probably know the answer by then, but if you guys know)... Is an outdoor dining area possible? Is a grill in a dining area like below possible? Currently, there is induction cooking inside. I don't know much about grilling inside though and I know nothing about how to do it with induction heat. Shit, maybe I should have bought a house in the Caribbean first. Now does all this depend on how big of a bear problem exists? Originally, we purchased a lot near Sandpoint, ID and there isn't much of a bear problem there. Then we were going to buy near Yellowstone, but the wife wanted to be near a lake. Finally, we settled on the west side of Flathead lake in Montana. The east side of the lake is closer to Glacier and most of the mountains so it definitely has more bears. But there are bears on both sides and we are a little higher up in elevation for the views and on 10 acres so it is somewhat rural. Hopefully, the views make it all worthwhile.
  21. Saturday game? I’ll have to get tickets now and book my flight .
