Finnegan's Wake
The Cottage
Outlaws BBQ (the original, none of the other crap spin offs)
Spirits (kinda)
the proximity to Kisatchie National Forest and all it has to offer

I've never been there but I've heard about it. Doesn't it only have something like three or four tables?

The airport (aex). Never crowded, never had a hassle there, has always been clean, and has a surprisingly decent selection of flights for an airport it's size.

definitely
we stayed there on our wedding night before flying out the next morning
service was nice, but the hotel felt really old and not in the charming way either

I couldn't help but open the thread when I saw it was 5 pages. Didn't think that was possible.

Cool. I stayed there in the previous incarnations. Hope it makes it.

they have a good beer selection and atmosphere, but I guess I just need to stop getting the burger because the last few times its been a hockey puck
It is where we always go though because its easily the best place to go in Alex for a beer that isn't Finnegan's Wake

I grew up within walking distance from Pineville Jr. High. There is supposed to be an aluminum plant to be built on the old paper mill property, if that happens, there will be some decent paying jobs added to the area. I'd go back there to live, but I have some property up there, on the Pineville side though. Lots more outdoor stuff to do around there with Kisatchie National Forest right there. I'm about to buy a kayak and hit up the local lakes. There are decent local restaurants, most mentioned. Mi Tierra in Forest Hill is a good mexican joint.

Meth is also significantly cheaper there
All jokes aside, my parents grew up there and most of my family still lives there (Pineville, Deville, Alexandria), and going there every summer growing up was always fun because of the ability to go hunting and fishing in decent spots that were no more than 20 min from relative's houses...the WMAs there are pretty damn good to hunt. Catahoula Lake and Lake Kincaid are pretty nice too.

They were just down to have fun too, and super fine.
I lost out on a chance with the finest girl from Pineville...but I also landed a few too. They were just more fun than ASH girls, and something about their form of hotness was just more effortless. I went to Menard, and even though our girls were hot too, I'd been in school with them, or rode the bus with them, since kindergarten. A couple of those I regret not giving a go at, but it was better to just leave them all alone.
I dated an ASH cheerleader for a while, so that made me more than few enemies. Good times.
