I originally had gotten 4 tiles for dog, luggage, etc. Its not that the tiles are not good or the app is not good but the network is not large enough (or at least at the time wasn't) to reliably track. Although the tile had technically a larger range than the airtag, the airtag (assuming you dont live in the middle of nowhere) would reliably ping from any apple device where as tile had to ping from a device with tile installed which is wayyyyy less devices. So for my application airtags are the much better option. Also selling/transferring tiles is a nightmare because you can't simply sell them. You have to like transfer it and all kinds of stuff.

See if you can fit one of the "sets" that volt sells through costco to what you need as the prices are better there then on Volt's website. Then add on to it with whatever else you need.

Another vote for Volt. High quality stuff and lifetime warranties. Anytime I have a bulb burnout I just email them and they overnight me a new one. All of the housing is heavy brass/metal. Very easy setup and connections. Its somewhat pricey but you will never spend money on it again.

Also a big fan of this course. As others said can be very windy being on the bay but always in good shape and interesting layout.

Yeah its a fun little course. Doesn't take itself as serious as a preserve or grand bear. Fairly priced and in good shape the times I played it.
Sort of off topic but figured I would ask it here instead of starting a whole thread. Nursery festival is in a few weeks and I know basically every nursery opens up and sells to public for most part. Are most of them open to the public other weekends in the spring too or just a select few?
Put mine down tuesday before the rain that night so I didn't have to water it in myself.
Is this the equivalent of baby gronk committing to LSU?

re: Duck gumbo question..

Have had their gumbo many times and not once did I not think it wasn't extremely good.
Did it a few years ago. Durango is a nice little town and then the resort is like 30 minutes drive from there. If staying at the resort, there is basically nothing to do once night comes around so if you are wanting to go out or eat late or any of that, it isnt an option. The actual mountain was nice and fun and not to crowded.
I didn't even know the second season had started nor do I have any idea time of day or day of the week its on. Feel like that is their biggest issue because I would watch it. Enjoyed Season 1.
I recently did something like this in my 2008 4runner. Wanted Apple Carplay and went with Sony XAV-AX3200. Works great and am very happy with it. Went through crutchfield which will have everything you need and excellent customer service to make sure you have everything you need and also help with install if you are doing it yourself.

Would disagree but just depends what you are looking for. Youngsville/Broussard is mostly all new development for the most part. If they are interviewing in Lafayette proper then I would not recommend moving out to Youngsville/Broussard unless you want a small commute. Ive never seen the appeal of those areas and there are plenty of great areas to live in Lafayette proper in all price ranges.

Staying inside the area of Johnston, Ambassador, Kaliste Saloom, and Pinhook is a good starting point but there a ton of great spots to live all over the city depending what they are looking for/price point.
Went through this recently with my 2008 4runner. Wanted carplay but didn't want to dump a bunch of money into it. This has been great and is consistently on crutchfields top list. Sony XAV AX3200

re: Asheville or Highlands, NC

Posted by LSUDbrous90 on 12/8/25 at 12:09 pm to
Having been to both in the last couple years, I would do highlands.
My recipe I use is 8:1 and I like a very thick roux gumbo. Can't imagine going much thicker before its not really gumbo anymore. 32 cups (8 quarts) of stock and 2 jars of roux (16 oz each so 4 cups). What Stadium said about 6:1 being a limit sounds about right.
Did new years in Berlin a few years ago and had a great time. Would highly recommend.
I watched the first two hours of it last night and thought it was pretty entertaining. Not too reality show'ish and a fun watch. I knew who luke kwon was but have never consumed any of his content. He is a massive douchebag. We have all missed a tee time before for whatever reason but people that act like he did are insufferable and shitty people. Unless its all just a bit.
