Alaska State Ferry system - take your vehicle, get off where you want, still on a boat, but there's not much choice. Takes advanced planning to book the ferries, lodging, glacier tours, etc...

Same here.

Fyi. Yesterday we had lunch at Sazon Latin Grill and at the table across the way, two younger fellas both said "Could I get xxx" or "can I have xxx" and my wife commented that makes no sense.

We went many years ago. Four islands, four nights on each. Used Aloha and Hawaiian airline to jump between islands. Maui and Kauai were probably our favorites, but Hawaii was good too and the beaches of Oahu were worth the time, especially along the east coast. Of course, things have changed over the years with development and crowds.

The Baton Rouge episodes aired last spring (April/May). It's still open. Never eaten the cheesecake appetizer there, but it's probably similar to the same dish served at Ruffino's (I've eaten that version). Their food is generally good, standard seafood and po'boys/sandwiches.

It's been ages since i made wine, always from kits. I tried several different kits and quality definitely tracked with cost and I seemed to have better luck with Australian and Washington sourced juice. I think the first couple kits were bought from Jim Waits when he had the homebrew shop on Wooddale, afterwards I bought kits from Austin Homebrew and Midwest (?). As mentioned by the previous poster, quality of whites was generally better than reds. I remember buying on kit of Zinfandel where the result looked more like a rose'.
