  1. Yeah, I guess. But they seem to be doing all that by themselves. Suggestions being Goode Company, Hickory Hollow, and lamenting the closure of County Line. It’s like they are trolling themselves.


    Holy shit, you must really be in suburbia hell.
  2. Rose all day!
    Great pics and understandable about ditching travel mates, I've done a few excursion on my own and while its great being able to do exactly what you want when you want but I've found dining in nicer restaurants a bit uncomfortable if solo
    I have zero trouble dining alone. Been doing it for years. Even in Michelin 3 star joints.

  3. Conflicting objectives?
    Kind of. Just people being completely inconsiderate (i.e. not cleaning up after themselves) and saying they do not have to because, "we are on vacation."

    I am ok with a little clutter. I am not ok with cleaning up all your broken empties off the deck you forgot to bring in before leaving. A massive thunderstorm blew in, bringing 40-50 mph gusts of wind. It was fun trying to prevent the flying glass from going everywhere. No one seems to understand why I was upset. Especially since one of my travel companions made a point to tell people to bring their stuff off the deck last night. It was his empties amongst the broken hm ones. Hypocrisy is appalling in all forms.

  4. Well, we all finally made it into Rome. The O'Hare international terminal is shit. Also, while the Turkish Airlines Business Lounge is pretty amazing, the airport itself sucks. Allegedly, there is a new one being built in Istanbul, but the current airport cannot handle the traffic. Case in point, my flight arriving from ORD, we disembarked on the fucking tarmac and had to be bused to the terminal. That and a late departure from ORD due to an issue with ground equipment (ORD issue, not Turkish Airlines) caused me to miss my connection resulting in a 4+ hour layover in Istanbul.

    Unfortunately had to spend most my layover fixing a rental car issue because the rental counter was closed by the time I was scheduled to arrive. It was not a great start.
