this summer was tight on time with everybody's schedules so we just went to Universal Orlando. 5 people, 5 nights at the Portofino with 2 rooms. Flights, Ubers, express passes for Epic. Meals, alcohol etc. $15-16K if I had to add it all up. But it was priceless. Our sons are 25 and 20 and it's hard to get us all together. Our first full family vacation since 2019.

A drive through Covington will show you its sorta looking dumpy in places. Plenty of Nissans and Kias. St Tammany should be very proud.

I dropped my Omega Planet Ocean chronograph on the tile floor a few years ago. It hasn't worked right since. I had a local watchmaker repair it, but it didn't last. Need to send it off to Omega or a specialist.
re: Ford Fatham Midsize EV Truck

For a commuter EV truck, that is pretty solid looking IMO.
I do wish they'd stop with the solid front face grill. I know there's no engine that needs air, but they could be more creative with that.
I think this will do much better than the Lightning. Most people either tow with a 1/2 ton or can't convince themselves that they never actually will. This scares people from the electric full size. Most small truck buyers are honest with themselves that they will never tow and an EV makes sense in that format.
I have a raptor and a couple sports cars. Earlier this year my MIL was looking to unload her 2013 corolla. I picked it up for a decent price, put a new CarPlay unit in it from Amazon and did a full-service on it. It's been a great runabout/airport car for us. 30+mpg on 87 gas. It's nice enough that everything works but crappy enough to not care about its cosmetics. Park it on the street or in the smallest spot. I keep impeccable care of our cars but it's been nice having a care free car to not worry about. The bad is it really does feel like a tin can lol and can barely get out of its own way. I imagine someone will come along we know in desperate need for a car and I'll upgrade a bit.

re: Mandeville bans bicycles from trailhead

I think the trailhead is just the immediate area surrounding the old depot that has a lot of foot traffic.
They can’t ban bikes from the trace itself.
Yes it's mainly the covered area, the splashpad and the little concert area.
Kids riding bikes through the splash area while little kids are there. Kids riding E bikes through there very fastly, jumping the berm behind the "ampitheater" etc. There has been a crackdown on kids and E bikes in the area and the trace. Kids riding 30 ish mph and passing close to slower bikes and runners.
quote:Nah it's just that when I think of "tract house" I think of neighborhoods with one builder/developer that give you the choice of 4 floor plans etc. Like DSLD, Lennar, DR Horton. I think of open ditches and front facing garages etc.

Don't choose Madisonville. It is a crime-ridden cesspool of crackheads and degenerates who would murder their own grandmother for drugs. Honestly, you'd be better off staying in Baton Rouge than moving to Madisonville. Baton Rouge is much safer. Also, Madisonville just entered into an agreement with the government to store nuclear waste, and they will be building a data center and a hog fat rendering plant in the town, too.

It's a Hoshizaki Ice Maker
The problem with those Hoshizaki under counter units especially the nugget makers is that they are a $2k machine with $3k worth of parts. They can get expensive to repair very quickly.
$700 million might get it gutted lol. This will be $2 billion+ plus by the time it's done.

re: Garage door
Posted by achenator on 6/19/26 at 3:11 pm to Klondikekajun
I think the cheapest solution would be to just have a door guy come put some residential metal garage doors. The whole shooting match, rails springs, everything so it's matched, I guess about $1500 each? Been a while since I bought a door like that.
