Self contracting and hiring out the framing of the carport separately from the pouring. Carpenter doing the framing and he couldn't recommend someone for the job. ...
Looking to pour slab for carport roughly 25x35 and looking for recommendations and pricing estimate (to pour/finish). Seems like trades want to concentrate on larger jobs. TIA...
Been a fan for a while, but was the first time seeing them. A really good show. I agree that the chairs setup wasn't the greatest, but we stood most of the show. I'm starting to like the casino shows as I get older.....they start promptly at 8, no opening act and usually done in an hour forty fiv...

Teddy Swims Baton Rouge Show

Recently came across this guy and see that he's playing in BR at the River Center Theater. I must be out of the loop, but I thought of him as a relative newcomer to the music scene...however I must be wrong judging by ticket prices for this show.....$200+ for balcony seats (including the insane fee...
Chankanaab....swim with the Dolphins....perfect ages for this. Did it with my kids years ago and it is something they will never forget. Afterwards we spent the remainder of our time on the Chakanaab beach. A good day. We piled into a cab and bought tickets on site to get there....no need to...

[quote]They told me my aunt who lives in Lafayette got it for them from some hole in the wall I want to say near opelousas but I was too many drinks in to recall where. She didnt know the name of it in any case but next time I see my aunt I'm gonna find out what it was BC it was excellent. Its proba...
Looking for a quick getaway at the end of the month and thought we'd hit up SA. Never been but we like to eat, drink, shop and sightsee so I thought we'd give it a try. Suggestions for lodging in the heart of the Riverwalk would be helpful. I also recall mention on this board of great places to ea...

LVP flooring suggestions

Posted by failuretocommunicate on 1/2/24 at 1:43 pm
The short story here is that I'm in the midst of doing a renovation for my daughter and we've decided that it is best to go the LVP route. The house is very old, on piers, has 1x4 tongue and groove original floors that are covered with about an inch of plywood. They were also covered with about 3 ...

I've used the ticket exchange forum on this site.... However rarely do I see pelicans tix.....I guess my original post was a little unclear... what I'm looking for is a forum that is somewhat specific to pelicans tix resale. ...

[quote]Every resale site has fees baw [/quote] I understand that....I guess what I'm looking for is something similar to the LSU tix exchange in this site. I frequently have bought and sold tickets directly from holders....

Pelicans resale tickets

Posted by failuretocommunicate on 12/11/23 at 2:19 pm
In town tonight and was thinking about attending the game. Is there a safe resale site to deal with ticket holders rather than dealing with ticketmaster or SeatGeek and their fees? Tia ...
Renovating an old house and will be replacing the existing galvanized corrugated metal with R panel. For cost reasons, the new metal has been installed on the wooden perlins. We're removing all of the sheathing from the house and spray foaming the exterior walls and was wondering if it is worth sp...
Did this trip about 2 months ago.....full disclosure, my wife and I are not wine drinkers so the tours weren't on our agenda. We struggled to find things to do after the first day of walking up and down the main drag through the shops. We hiked Enchanted twice (actually on the same day....early mo...
Spent the weekend in Denver via MSY/DEN direct. No issues whatsoever. I understand that direct flights lower your odds of problems, however all went well. The flight each was totally full (flew out Sat and back Tues). We did have about a 30 minute delay on the return, but the pilot was able to...
[quote]"rust" gravy with sausage, all you have to do is after you brown your sausage you take one medium onion and one can of drained diced rotel per pound (keep the liquid add it back later) and caramelize them. You end up with a "rust" colored gravy[/quote] ^^This.....must be smoked sausage and...
Last year over Labor Day weekend we did a daytrip from Denver straight to Chasm Lake trail within RMNP. Was a great hike, but didn't get to see Estes Park or any other areas of RMNP. This trip we'll check out the valley likely hike between Leadville and Salida (while staying in BV). Looking f...
Sounds like either place would be a great time. I'm leaning towards the valley due to the crowd issue. Since it's a short trip it'll be mostly early morning hikes into the early afternoons then early evening beer and food. Nothing too crazy.... Just a short getaway. ...
Looks like it'll be the Valley since I'd prefer not to fight crowds if possible. Appreciate the info....just checked my flights and I actually arrive 7:00 AM on Saturday....so hopefully I can head towards the Valley before traffic gets too crazy. Actually fly back to New Orleans on Tuesday. Rec...
Scheduled to fly into Denver labor day weekend for 3 days of hiking and sightseeing (and cool weather). Trying to decide on a single location to spend all of the days rather than trying to hit up both areas in a short trip. Need to book accommodations (yeah i'm late) and looking for suggestions as...
My recollection is that it was a solid 2 hour drive. That would be a tough day trip but doable I guess....really wouldn't be much time to experience what Sedona offers. Taking in the scenery and maybe a jeep tour might be doable....but i can't imagine much more than that. Good luck......
