Tchefuncte Country Club has lots going for $600k and from all accounts there is no traffic in that subdivision.

Pretty soon TCC will be no options to build unless you want to do a tear down of one of the OG houses. Not much left in the Sanctuary to build on unless you want to be in the swamp. I see CCC and Riverwood to see a resurgence of high end due to some water access and location.

The next 2 weeks, particularly Friday evenings will be the worst traffic of the year.

People act like the act of filming this content isn't work in itself. Setting up, moving cameras constantly, getting drone footage, making sure equipment isn't stolen while working etc. Not to mention hours and hours of editing.

Tennessee rivals Louisiana for shitty construction and piss-poor markings.


In Sept I shipped my GT3 out to CO and drove over 1700 miles out there in a week. Denver to Telluride, loops out to Ouray, Million Dollar Hwy, Gateway etc. Then to Vail to Pikes Peak etc. I-70 is a mess. The vistas were beautiful but I didn't think the roads were in that great of shape, lots of construction. Lots of pebbles on the roads and snow damage., Big sweeping turns but nothing like the awesome tight turns of East Tenn and SW North Carolina. I've driven a ton on TOTD, Cherohala Skyway, 28, and many other roads of that area and nothing else ive been on in the USA compares.

the cheapest, miled up 2022 cullinans are still $250k but ok. Probably the same depreciation rate or less than my wife's AMG SUV lol.

As said before, the area around the Frontenac. Battery Park is nice, take an afternoon trip out to the big waterfall. The aquarium is OK, it's under some major renovations but they do have an impressive polar bear exhibit.
Have one. It's a big one. 12x30. Keep my 16.5 ft. car hauler trailer in it. Keeps the trailer out of the weather and rats from chewing the wiring etc. 5 minutes from the house. Expensive but necessary and convenient. only thing in there besides the trailer is a washer and dryer i'm keeping in case one of the kids need them.

Our kids are grown with no grandkids yet and we both come from small families, We are both only children so our kids have no cousins. We have very few first cousins ourselves, I only have 5.

That and working retail in high school and college have stomped it for us. Our kids we just give $ and we don't buy each other presents, we buy whatever, whenever.
One of my friends and his girlfriend own a salon in S Alabama. They have cameras all over the store. He sends me clips all the time. It's amazing the shite people try to pull. Just this week they had a fat white chick claim CC fraud. They have video of her getting the service then tapping her card to pay.

that's my wife, has no clue, it's not that I hide anything, she just isn't interested in the details


Same. My wife hasn't worked a for pay job in almost 20 years. She just knows she has a credit card. She can buy whatever at the grocery, put gas in her car and live life. If she wants to spend something outside of that say over 4-500, we'll discuss it first. She doesn't really spend much so it's all good. I've had to get her involved in some of the finances in case I croak.

In Covington, the Costco is much better than the Sams IMO. Food (pizza and hot dogs) is better, employees are better, checkout is better. Maybe it is because it is still fairly new and the efficiency wears off after awhile, but I hope not.

The gas station is 10x better at Costco but I do miss scan and go a bit at the pump. More pumps, easier to get in and out of and you don't have morons pulling in the wrong way like there is at Sam's
