I use the Priceline “Express Deal” pretty often. It’s a blind reservation. You select the number of hotel stars and they’ll give you a hint by listing 4-5 possible brands. You can narrow it down pretty easy by cross checking if they have a restaurant, pool, pet friendly, etc.

Anyway, I most recently got $100 off a Hilton in Uptown Charlotte. While the Hilton website said that particular hotel was fully booked.
That’s Carolina Mic! I’ve met him.
He went viral for the Panthers version of his song 150k and now he’s invited to halftime shows to perform around the southeast. The funny part is he lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Greensboro’s PD social media has been goofy for years. They do some pretty funny stuff.

Also depends on mulch, staking, watering, soil prep/amendments, 1 yr guarantees, etc. It seems a little high but “you get what you pay for” goes both ways. Did they describe all of that stuff in the quote?
Finally showed up for me. Nice to be able to drop shows like “My 20,000 lb wife” or whatever they show on TLC.
Add a layer of some black cow manure or compost and mix it in. It will give it the fresh darker look and add nutrients.

Old mulch will still do most of its job (retains moisture and weed deterrent). I’ve never removed it.

Depends on what kind of sand.

Kiawah, SC the sand is flat and hard. Almost like concrete. The 4 small wheels work well.

On softer beaches where your feet sink ankle deep while you walk the big fat tires work better.
I trust the apple batteries more than the Amazon batteries (to not explode).

15 years ago High Point was basically a community college. They hired a president that is a master marketer. He sales the school on it’s amenities and it being gated from the outside. You can live a life of luxury as a student at High Point way cheaper than you could living as a struggling student going to school in the North East. The president puts his name on all the buildings.
I can’t believe Hawaii had a team. They had to be the first team to go broke.

80% of the students are from out of state. Most are Yankees.

She likes to cover punk bands Rancid and Operation Ivy (90s Northern Cal punk). Here’s one of a Rancid song

Saw her play with Billy Strings a couple of years ago. She’s recently married to/or engaged to Ketch from Old Crow Medicine Show.

I didn't know Winston-Salem had that many.
The textile, tobacco and furniture industries brought in people from the coastal regions back when people used to work.
I would rather put prices on items than hear this all day “How much dis? How much dat?”
I’m headed there next week. Any recommendations not mentioned above? We’ll have a rental car (sedan). Anything cool to visit that doesn’t need a 4x4? We mostly just want to hang out on Eagle Beach but wouldn’t mind an hour or two sightseeing trip a couple of times.
If Columbia, SC isn’t on this list it’s crap.

Anyone else here a fan? Over the past couple of years he’d have songs pop up on Sirius/XM that would peak my interest but I never went searching for him.

Late last year I finally deep dived on Spotify and I’ve been obsessed with his last album. His album People Watching is my 2025 album of the year.

This YouTube video of his sold out concert in London Stadium is really good.
