  1. Getting my reservation in early. 3 days away from finishing another 30 days in India. I've been playing with fire for the past 27. British Airways better have the FWD lav ventilation system cranked up to 11.

  2. Alright, I'm diving in. Anybody got a rec for the PHX area? We have looked at Shasta and Presidential, any other suggestions? Thinking non-salt 3x5x3 play pool, no spa, and a bigger pump then probably needed (is that still the consensus?) Coach me up on what I need to ask for.

    Sell.Me.A.Pool.

  3. Like everyone else said it depends a lot on where you live. If you are in Texas, most people who go out of state went with Utah or Nevada because their fees are so low and they are well managed. If you are in a state that gives a tax break for using their 529, you've got to weigh that with the fees. Sometimes it makes sense to go out of state, even with the tax break.

    Contributions are simple, same as transferring money or a direct deposit from each paycheck. We have different 529's for each kid, but depending on age difference, you could do one. Once kid #1 is out of school put it in kid #2's name and start using for them.

    Should your kid get scholarship money, you can take an equivalent amount out and pay no taxes.

  4. Totally normal. My daughter was all about dad when she was born. Then I was gone for a month when she was 6 months and when I came back she only wanted mom. Broke my heart, but they eventually come back around.

  5. Alright, I'm using my first post on the new board for this so y'all better not disappoint. I've got two more days here, so give me your best. So far, I have ran the Animas River Trail, hit up Carver, Steamworks and Ska, and walked in downtown a bit.

    Tomorrow we're taking the little one to feed the fish at the hatchery, going to one of the parks by the river for her and then going to Animas Brewery. What else ya got?
