Look at Arenas Del Mar near Manuel Antonio on the Pacific Coast and consider hiring a private plane to fly you into the Arenal region and stay at Nayara Resort. Did this for my honeymoon - it was best of both worlds ...

Louie’s Backyard, Hot tin Roof and Matt’s Stock Island are all great. Schooner Wharf Bar is cool right next to Jimmy Buffets original recording studio. ...
Witnessed a drive by shooting while driving with my family and had tools stolen out of my backyard shed after Hurricane Ida knocked my fence down. The shooting was shocking and the news reported it as drug related but it hasn’t affected me long term. Was honestly more frustrated by the tool steal...

I’ve been going to the Week 4 retreat for about 10 years - I’ll try and answer this one for you. I’m not catholic btw It depends… It’s gotten lost a bit in the discussion here, but, Manresa is a religious retreat based on the spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola (founder of the Jesuit...
Just got back from Disney. The mask mandate there for kids is really lax. The only time my 3 year old was asked to put on a mask was to meet Cinderella. Now, for adults, prepare to be diligently masked up any time you’re indoors. The cast members are pretty relentless with that....

That’s a great site, thanks. Unfortunately, when I pop in my potential travel dates and drop off location, it quotes me at $858 r/t.. ...

Looking at a ski trip in March 2022. I’d like to cash in my Southwest points and fly into Montrose. Any tips on getting from Montrose into Crested Butte? Not finding much online in terms of shuttle services. Thanks in advance for helping out!...
I felt exactly as you described in the liberal Mecca of chicago a few weeks ago. People looked at me like a fool when I walked into restaurants/coffee shops wearing a mask. Chicago more free than Nola… who woulda thought?...
We go every year. The beach club has public grills out front of the “clubhouse” in the center of the 4 towers (on the parking lot side). To my knowledge, there aren’t any grills near the pools. I’ve never had an issue drinking from my own ice chest at any of the pools. As another poster said, the...
How did they dock you? Did they change their offer after they took possession of the vehicle? That’s my main concern: they’ll have possession of my car, they’ll pay my bank and gain title then they lowball me (I have positive equity in the vehicle)....
Does anyone on the board have any experience with selling a car on Vroom, givemethevin, etc.? Looking for advice, things to watch for, things you wish you would have known... I don’t have to sell but it seems that covid-19 work from home life is here to stay and I’m looking to offload a car note/...
