re: Coffee Thread
Posted by hogfly on 5/8/24 at 8:25 pm
They have several coffee shops in the area as well. Since they’re based out of Bentonville, they also have a wal-mart contract, but I imagine it’s only carried in certain regions (every time I see it in Walmart, I wonder who is purchasing it there at that price) ...

For those of you interested in high-quality beans, I would be curious how you like Airship. Interestingly, from same area as Onyx and considered of similarly high quality.
Here’s their site for ordering:

re: Hot Springs restaurant recommendations

I will say that I had a pretty bad experience trying to get our group seated last time we were there. But it was a very busy weekend, and we had a very large group. We were just given pretty poor time estimates on how long it would take to seat us which led to pretty serious frustration.
But yeah...

Weird. You're like the only person I've ever heard say that... (other than a 15 year old girl who ate there with our mountain bike team and said it was too greasy).

re: Montego Bay - anything worth seeing off of the resort?
Posted by hogfly on 5/6/24 at 9:39 am
Everyone's mileage varies, but I found the prevailing wisdom in this thread to be untrue when I visiited Jamaica.
The big resort cities/towns (Mo Bay, Negril, Ocho and just don't go to Kingston period) do feel unsafe and have a lot of tourist hassling occurring, because the people there have a pa...
re: Anyone ever had Beau Jo’s pizza in Colorado?
Posted by hogfly on 5/6/24 at 9:30 am
Hah. Don't expect it to be as good as you remember. It IS good, though. That was the first place I ever had honey served with pizza crust, and it's a staple in our family, now.. though we use hot honey a lot of times.

re: Went to Bogue Chitto state park today to ride the bike trails.
Posted by hogfly on 5/2/24 at 2:04 pm
For those considering purchasing a mountain bike, I earlier recommended buying a hardtail from a local bike shop. That's good advice, but I will say that the used bike market is absolutely crazy cheap right now. A ton of people got into the sport during COVID and are now unloading their bikes. Suppl...

Much of the NWA "talent" are kids of privilege who have had tons of sports-specific training, travel ball, and coaching clinics for their entire lives. They're good because their parents have invested in them being good, whether they have a ton of natural athleticism or not.
Those same kids also...

It's sort of dystopian space opera. Definitely not "hard scifi," but there's no "magic" or fantasy elements of that nature in it.

Bogue Chitto recently came up on a trail building podcast I listen to. There are definitely some cool trails there. Ruston, LA just got some new MTB trails as well that are pretty awesome for those of you further north in the state.
It's a great sport. For those of you looking to get into it: it'...

Yep. We've started listening to them on road trips. The 15 hours caught us up in March, as we spent a lot of time in the car. Luckily my wife has a work Spotify account as well, so we swapped over to hers to finish up the book we were on.

It might be nice to edit your OP to let people know that the owner made it right. Glad to hear it was a good resolution and hope your next trip is awesome!...
re: I still prefer instant grits
Posted by hogfly on 4/23/24 at 12:43 pm
I need to cook more "regular" grits. I almost always end up baking mine with cheese, garlic and eggs mixed in so that they're more "cakelike" like a garlic cheese polenta than traditional grits. But that's because I'm usually making them for a potluck, and they serve more easily that way.
