re: Acadiana Baws - learn me about ponce
Posted by danny d lsu on 10/7/26 at 10:02 am to Uncle JackD
We would always get our pounce from Weelo's (RIP) growing up or Teet's. But my aunt got one from here for Thanksgiving last year and we were all asking where it was from. I was trying to look it up, but from what I heard it'll sell out. Looks like all they have is a facebook page, and I'm not seeing the pounce advertised.

Have you tried the ponce from Queb's in Plaisance? It's pretty damn good.
re: Pool leak question

Haha. Unfortunately it started losing water again when I filled it back up. Found a tear in the liner just below the steps, well below the water line when it stopped going down. I guess as the water went down the pressure stopped it from pushing out of the tear? Next question is do any of the patches work? I’ve tried two that both say work underwater without draining the pool but they don’t fully stick.
Same thing just happened to me, drastic drop in water level when I got home from work and found a tear in the vinyl right at the steps. The tear was too big to patch so have to drain the pool and replace the entire liner. The liner is only about 7 years old but apparently they only last 7-10 years. We bought the house with the pool already built. Salt cell went out, pump broke, now the liner, this thing is more trouble than its worth sometimes.
re: Tijeras Creek / Strawberry Farms in CA
Posted by danny d lsu on 9/29/26 at 9:52 am to BillyLSU
Thought about playing Strawberry Farms last year but ended up playing Pelican Hill because I got a discounted rate because we were staying at the Marriot Vacation Club. The prices at Pelican Hill is crazy but couldn't pass up the opportunity with the discount. Course was beautiful. I got paired with 3 other guys who were local to the area and they suggested checking out the Ranch at Laguna Beach, its a 9 hole course but they said it was cool to check out. I didn't end up making it out there though.

Wow, that's very helpful. Thank you for taking the time for the suggestions. There is so much to do with so little time. Might have to make another trip back to enjoy everything.

Let me know if you need any recs while in the neighborhood.
Looks like the hotel block options are Hotel Belleclaire, Arthouse Hotel, Empire Hotel. Not sure if you would have any opinions on these. We arrive Friday around lunch and leave Sunday but will have wedding activities already planned. Open for lunch Friday and Saturday.
Welcome Party at Trattoria il Gisto Wine Bar, then George Keely. No idea what these places are like but I'm sure it'll be fun. Looks like the Wedding is going to be at the Museum of the City of New York.
Appreciate the suggestions, we getting more and more excited for the trip.

Bring a bottle of wine and a few snacks on the train and have happy hour with your wie on the ride to enchance the experience.
Wait this is really allowed? That would be awesome. We just gonna take the train. I'm a complete beginner about getting around New York as well, I'm assuming the subway will be the best way to get around even though I've heard crazy stories about riding them. I'm fairly familiar with the Metro in DC. Hotel is gonna be on the upper west side around Broadway and 72nd street.

Okay thank you. I've never taken the train before and from doing some quick research on tickets and everything when we want to leave and come back its only about $100 cheaper than direct flights. But I feel like taking the train could add to the experience.
Taking the Train from DC to New York City
Posted by danny d lsu on 9/10/26 at 9:52 am
Does anybody have any advice or suggestions for taking the train from Washington DC to New York City and back? Wife and I will be leaving the kids at her parents house right outside of DC then have a wedding in New York City. I believe the Amtrack train has several options between the two cities but we have not done it before if anybody has any experience with this or any suggestions it would be appreciated.

Parents still live in Ville Platte so we tried to hit as many as we could that day. Started the morning off at Fred's in Mamou. We passed a good time.

Paul's in Ville Platte
Did a little boudin tasting tour around Ville Platte. Went to T-Boy's Charlie's in Mamou, Teet's, 5 Brother's, B&S and Paul's
Teet's was surprisingly one of my favorites, I used to not like Teet's Boudin but its way improved now. B&S used to be my favorite but it terrible now, not sure what they did. Paul's used to be terrible as well but its close to being the best. T-Boy's seemed to have a lot of liver which I enjoy but not for everyone. Charlie's had a lot of parsley and green onion in it which my wife liked. 5 Brother's was meat forward, felt it could use a little better meat to rice ratio.

We used Pinnacle Exterior Construction and it was an absolute disaster. Maybe it was just a one off problem with them but nothing was installed to specifications and it took about a year to fully fix the problem. Miserable experience.

re: Leaking water around base of toilet

Make sure it's not water leaking from the tank. A couple of years ago I had everything prepared to change my wax seal, but luckily discovered a rubber washer/gasket was rotted on the inside of the tank so one trip to HD and maybe 2.00 later it was fixed. It's really difficult to see clear water running down the back of the toilet.
This was the problem, well the gasket/rubber stopper was fine, I just needed to tighten the nut to the bottom of the tank.
re: Leaking water around base of toilet
Posted by danny d lsu on 4/1/26 at 6:22 pm to MemphisGuy
Appreciate all the replies. After further investigation it seems like one of the nuts in the bottom back of the tank that holds the tank to the toilet was loose and dripping a bit. I tightened it and doesn’t seem to be accumulated water on the floor. I’ll see tomorrow morning if it remains dry. Glad it was mentioned to check that first. Thanks.
