Spice rub the ribs and wrap in plastic wrap. Place in the fridge for up to 24 hours. If you slow cook them after, you really get a great crust and they'll fall off the bone.

We use PlyGem as the base builder-grade vinyl windows on our houses. They're good quality windows but there are always better options. Without jumping too far up in price (Pella, Anderson...), you may want to try Showcase or Windsor. They have better style options and still hit a good price point.

If you have a mortgage and are in a flood zone, the bank will usually require that you purchase flood insurance regardless of how high you build.

Your biggest flood insurance discount typically comes from raising your house at least 6 1/2" above the required elevation. After that, the insurance savings are negligible and the additional costs to raise the foundation are usually not worth it. If you raise the house so much that your first floor living area is several feet above the finished grade, you may also be adding costs to your homeowners insurance. Some insurers penalize you for an "over-elevated" house, presumably because there's more risk of someone getting seriously injured if they fall off a porch raised several feet above the ground.

We just went in July and ate at Atlantic Fish, Neptune and some other places. Atlantic Fish was the best. Really fresh seafood and tons of options.

If you go to Neptune, go 30 minutes before it opens. We did that and were first in line, but by the time it opened, the line was 30 deep. The place is small and can only accommodate about 30 people total. None of us were that impressed. I think mainly because we're not big on lobster rolls.
