ended up going to Colorado Springs, stayed downtown and hit up Manitou Springs, Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, traveled to royal gorge and spent a day there rafting. Overall a really good trip. Everything was in close proximity to the hotel.

Stayed at the Antler (i think that was the name) and best meal was at Red Gravy!

Donated....

Also, Bob Giles does a segment on KLFY called "pay it forward"....maybe his organization could provide some assistance.

thanks CapitalTiger.....was hoping to get some actual input from folks who live in these types of homes and deal with it.

I'm in the process of purchasing an old house (approximately 100 years old) and plan to install central HVAC, new roof, new electric and new plumbing, as well as a bunch of other other stuff. My main hang up is what to do about insulation.

I'd like to keep much of the old charm, (reglass the windows, remove paneling and simply paint the center-match/bead board etc). The exterior is cypress or cedar beveled wood siding and about 75% of it is in good shape. AI says NOT to remove the siding or spray foam the exterior walls, tivek and then reinstall the siding (and then simply blow in insulation into the attic). I realize i can't get max efficiency from the HVAC with an old house.....but how do people manage in older homes?? Do they simply accept that the HVAC will simply have to work harder during extreme summer/winter? AI suggests that most HVAC losses are through the roof/attic and floor.

The suggestion from AI is for closed cell foam on the underside of the house and thick blown in insulation in the attic.

Anyone have experience with this issue with older homes? Also not wanting to break the bank... :lol:

Definitely some unusual stuff up in here. I'm beginning to think some of y'all are just making this stuff up

Booking dilemma.... Leaving Seattle and then returning to Seattle trip (7 day) would the rear facing premium balcony rooms be a better option then a premium balcony room on the port or starboard side.


Travel agent couldn't recommend one way or the other.

Opinions?

I have been onPrincess cruises and have taken two Viking cruises in the past two years with another one scheduled for next April.
Princess is nice but Viking is a step above.

I have been on two Alaskan cruises, both on Holland America.

I would rank them
Viking
HAL
Princess

All were fun.
Can’t go wrong with any of them.

care to share any details....


is seattle to vancouver worth it or is the anchorage/vancouver the better trip?
time of year? rainy, snow covered versus emerging spring
booked through travel agent versus yourself?
must do excursions?
excursions to pass on?
booked excursions through cruiseline or separately?
preference in cruising north/south versus south/north?

so many questions.......just a few things that come to mind :lol:

Thanks

If I had to guess I bet you’re looking at the SD9 S&W

Just confirmed that the S&W is in fact the SD9.

Waiting on info about the Taurus and Smithfield

Thx

delete....double post

Admittedly, I'm more of a rifle and shotgun guy, but wanted opinions on which one of the following would be a good all around pistol for home use. Not going to CC, but just to have in the home (wife will want to become familiar with it as well). The list below are the only options currently available to choose from:

Springfield XD 9MM
Taurus GX4 9MM
S&W 9MM
