Daughter just went there a couple weeks ago when she went to rodeo in Cody. Said it was cool. She is being a horse wrangler for the summer on a private ranch about an hour from Cody. I'm envious when she tells us how awesome the weather is every day. Flying up early August to drive her car back from Billings so won't be near enough to stop myself.

Not quite as dramatic, but similar. Both our kids are at LSU. Wife wanted to go in 2023 when one was freshman and other a sophomore. Couldn't make it work. As soon as we beat UCLA Tuesday morning to get in to game with Arky, she booked a ticket to KC for Wednesday afternoon. I got home from work, packed my bags and headed north in the car.
Stopped sometime after midnight in North Arkansas at a hotel. Drove into KC, picked her up about 2 pm Wednesday. Got to Omaha about 1 hr before first pitch. Picked up SRO tickets, and watched the Tigers beat arky. As soon as we won, we booked 1 way tickets for the kids to KC. We paid like $300 a piece and by the time we made it back to hotel the same flight was like $800.
Drove back to KC on Thursday night to pick them up. Had 7 other friends drive up Friday. All 11 of us hung out, watched the Tigers win the NC, and partied all weekend. Second time I had been, but first for the wife and kids. Epic experience no matter the cost.

re: Annual Trout Trip - Grand Isle

Rigs and Reefs, first time I have actually heard of someone targeting them specifically. Have caught a few while red snapper fishing, but never caught more than a couple.
Boss booked office with chauffeur trip on his boat weekend of swollfest. Thursday was 35 Vermillion and 15 red snapper for 6. Friday was 55 Vermillion, 15 red snapper, couple cobia, some chicken dolphin and a couple almaco jack for 6. Saturday took a few friends out myself for 30 Vermillion, 20 red snapper and a cobia for 5.

We were just discussing this at the office. Seems like we name more of these borderline storms. Wondering if that plays into the reasoning.

3 hours is pushing it. Generally won't fish Venice unless we are staying the night at the camp. Those suicide trips just aren't worth it anymore.

The law says stay in the right lane unless overtaking and passing a vehicle. You aren't overtaking a vehicle when you are a 1/4 mile behind it.
Suffering consequences has nothing to do with free will.

It's not your God-given right to drive as fast as you want.
Sure it is, since God gave us free will. It's not your right to decide which laws have higher priority. The law says no driving in the left lane. Same thing as speeding regardless of the amount over the speed limit.
He changed it from a logic question to a philosophical question before I entered the chat. Even considering it logically, there is no logical explanation for driving in the left lane. It is for passing only.
You can what if it to death. If you aren't passing, get to the right. It is pretty simple. Yes, sometimes you get screwed doing the right thing. That doesn't negate that it is the right thing.
Right, because you are an inconsiderate moron. I get back right everytime I pass regardless of who is behind me. Even if no one is there I get over than get back left when I get to the next vehicle. It is the proper way to drive. The left lane is only for passing, not driving. Your math doesnt work in your example though, but good try.

How much faster than the sites limit were they going?
Has no bearing on the decision. Only question is, Are you passing someone? If no, get to the right. If yes, complete the pass then get over to the right.

Exactly, if you aren't actively passing a vehicle get over to the right. Someone is always going faster than you. It is not that complicated.

Boykins do all that plus the squirrels and turkey hunt. Not saying they are as good, but they can perform the same tasks. They are good if you want a smaller package.
Boykin onwer here. Great family dog. Small enough to be a couch dog, but big enough to be in the field.
Trained her for duck retreiving. Got her about 1/2 way thru casting when we sold our house and moved into a rent house while building our next house. Never finished her. She is serviceable though. Won't pick up many at a 100 yds, but she will get everything within about 50 yds. Mostly due to me doing a disservice and never continuing the training.

Was there. Guys next to us in SRO where from Omaha. They wanted Arky to win so they could see an extra game. At the bottom of the 8th and 9th, I told em Jay says there is no clock in baseball. They said there was no chance we would win...
