Hunt arsenal RZR


I’m rocking the Gen 1 RZR as well. It doesn’t have as much foot space off the tree, but is wider than the Predator XL. I find that is more beneficial if I have to spin around. Folds up flat into a very thin profile.

I didn’t mind the rope attachment but just got a cam buckle for it at the end of last season.
Mistakenly bought 100 shares in my taxable account when I was trying to buy with my Roth. Now I have 100 shares in each @10.60

Checking in. Well under 40 and currently sitting on 2, will be attempting for three in the next few months. If we are successful without much delay, we will have all three under 3.5.

By the time I’m 50, they will all be adults. Still got plenty of green grass in front of you at that age and the financial stability to take advantage of it.

I like the old adage “If you’re going to eat a shite sandwich, don’t nibble.”
4.5” in StG this morning the worst part of it missed us.
Update - We ended up working out extended childcare arrangements and lengthened our trip by two days, so we are back on for hitting all three spots. 9 nights total now. :lol:

What we are really trying to work out now is where we are going to stay at each place.

I received a $200 Omaha Steaks gift card for Xmas. Used some first time purchase promotions with it at checkout. The steaks were good but I didn’t feel like it was a great value for the price, I feel like I could do better at the grocery store.

re: Recommendations for Italy

Appreciate all the responses. At this point I’m leaning just doing Rome / Almafi. As far as what we want to do, it’s kind of tough to say because I’m more interested in getting around and seeing as much as I can and wife is probably more looking forward to relaxing as we will be getting a break from the kids.

Seems like TD’s experience is consistent with Florence / Tuscany being highly recommended. With Almafi being pretty much non-negotiable, I’m really down to picking between Florence and Rome. As a first time visitor, I feel like Rome has to be hit just due to the sheer amount of history, art, architecture, etc. and save the rest for a future trip.

If y’all have any specific must-do’s in Rome outside of the obvious historic sites, I’d be glad to know.

We are going down to the coast south of Naples regardless, the reason I was thinking to hit Florence first is that the train ride from there to Rome is short and we are arriving early in the morning. Travelling directly from the Almafi area to Florence is going to be most of a day by itself if you don’t break it up.

To answer your question, no we don’t have to fly home from Naples necessarily. I could switch the flights up.

The more I think about it, I agree it is probably a better call to do as you say and simplify it by cutting out Florence. Just hate to go all that way and potentially regret not seeing that part of the country.

I’d extend the trip but we have two young kids and this is already stretching it for leaving them with the grandparents

Recommendations for Italy

Posted by Rob Perillo on 2/18/26 at 9:15 am
I know there are a lot of Italy veterans on this board, so I am seeking some advice for a trip that I currently have planned. We already have it partially laid out, but still have flexibility in our plan. Any first hand advice or recommendations would be much appreciated, as wife (no pics) and I have never been to Europe. Just the two of us are traveling.

We will be in country for 7 nights. Flights are booked:
- Arriving in Rome Saturday 5/30 at 7:35 AM.
- Departing from Naples Saturday 6/6 at 10:15 AM

Rough outline as of now:
- Saturday 5/30 & Sunday 5/31: Florence. Looking at taking a train from Rome to Florence that morning after we land. It shows that this is only a ~1.5 hour trip and might allow us to see some of the countryside. Flying direct to Florence did not seem as easy as just going into Rome, the overall travel time probably wont be much different.
- Monday 6/1 & Tuesday 6/2: Back to Rome. Obviously lots of things to see here for a first timer.
- Wednesday 6/3 - Friday 6/5: Taking a train from Rome to the Almafi Coast. Dont have a specific place picked out yet but this probably what she is most looking forward to.
- Saturday 6/6: Depart from Naples

My questions / advice needed:
- We are not sure if trying to hit three different spots in this amount of time will be too chaotic. I have heard from most people that Florence was their favorite place they visited in country, but at the same time I feel like we cant skip out on Rome completely. She could be convinced to switch the 3 night portion of the trip to either Florence or Rome.
- Any hotel recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I am not being too strict with my budget, but I am not trying to stay at the most expensive place in town either. We've started looking at some places in Florence and it looks like we can get some nice accommodations for $300-$400 per night.
- Recommendations on things to do in Florence or Rome that might be overlooked from the main tourist attractions.
- Any general things that you wish you knew in advance or would've done on past trips.

My best season as far as getting into bow range of mature bucks. Didn’t bag one with a bow in LA but I had a few really close calls. Took a nice 8 with my rifle that I posted a pic of here in the IST. I observed the best activity from a few days before Xmas up to New Years Day, Area 6.

Got a buck in both Missouri and Texas with my bow before I really started hunting in LA, so that probably saved the the lives of a couple younger deer here in LA. :lol:
Happened last week on Highland Rd. in StG across from Ruffinos. Water was shooting 20’ up in the sky.

This is impressive
I got a good video. Definitely fireworks. Had me on high alert, hopped out of bed and grabbed the AR.

What a shame

KLFY is throwing out junk meteorological headlines for clicks.
My most memorable: on the wall it read “there’s a dick on the ceiling” and on the ceiling it just read “fig”
Damn, I took the alternate line
Of +14.5 for bama. Dont think even the most knowledgeable ball watchers expected them to be embarrassed like this.
