  1. 40% humidity in Houston in September? Yes please.
  2. Wife and I just retired this year and are empty nesters as of 2 weeks ago! Folks have done Viking cruises for 2 decades and rave about them. We are definitely gonna get one on the books for summer 26. 59 and 60 years old so think the demographics would be good for us. Looking forward to hearing about specific itineraries on this thread.
  3. Headed to Sonoma (the town) for my 60th next week. Looking for a few specific recs. Have looked in the thread and it's quite frankly overwhelming from what to pick to do. Never been and we are not huge knowledgeable wine people (like to drink it but certainly not experts ) but do want to try some different things and just experience the whole vibe there. Staying at the Fairmont Mission Inn and Spa while there so hopefully that is a good spot?? We aren't interested in $90 wine tastings and would be happy if there are some good ones to try right in town. My only restaurant reservation so far is at the Girl and Fig. Here I'd like some guidance on. 1) Best pick for a nice restaurant for my 60th. Not French Laundry type prices but something nice ($250-$400 all in for 2 type place). Willing to drive on this one a bit but the closer to Sonoma, the better. 2) 2-3 Reasonably priced winery tastings. Willing to drive a little but would be great if there was a can't miss right in Sonoma. 3) Are the guided tours worth it for one day to see several wineries? Not usually a fan of group travel but don't want to be driving around if I'm visiting 2-3 spots in a day. 4) 1/2 day hiking spot. 4-8 miler ---moderate type thing. Appreciate any help/thoughts.
  4. Dropped off the last of our three boys this weekend on the 40 acres. Bittersweet but we are ready. Wife retired last Friday and I did couple of years ago. It’s go time! House is so quiet. And clean! Glorious.
  5. This team is in serious jeopardy of not making the playoffs. Hard to imagine a deep run if they even do. That being said, let’s go kick some ass in Baltimore tomorrow and try and right this ship.
  6. I’ll bet you talk about the pitcher having a no hitter during a baseball game. Damn you….
  7. Been with it since the beginning but got a decision to make this year. Leaning downgrade.
  8. Mariners win. Lead down to 1 1/2 games. Time to kick some Yankee ass.
  9. So, just like the majority of surly posters?
  10. If my aunt had balls, she’d be my uncle.
