OP, are you staying in one of the onsite cabins, RV or tent camping? I am curious what part of the campground you would recommend reserving since it appears to be a large campground with lots of options.
Like a couple of others, my hand is on the pin. I was supposed to retire 3 years ago with the hubbie when we were both 52. As luck would have it, my boss retired the same day as my husband, so they offered me her job which was a nice pay and pension bump. Figured I would stay a year, then go...
Hubbie and I had worked swings, got home at 0230 and went to sleep to be woken up at 0430 by the quake. Half asleep he jumps up, grabs his pistol and is pointing it around at the ground, I make a bee line for the doorway and start yelling at him to join me and its over. We both knew it was a...
OP is right - get your eyesight checked if you start noticing floaters, flashes or any distortion in your vision right away, don't wait! Also, whatever eye is dominant, close it for a minute once and awhile and check your vision in your non dominant eye. You can miss subtle changes that could...
You did the right thing, as painful as it is/was for you. Far more responsible than some animal owners I have seen. For them, they will continue getting looked after which is what will give you peace. Hopefully from time to time you might get an update on them, or even visit when you are...
Sorry for the delayed response, work got in the way. Smash and grab at the local jewelry store, a pursuit with 7 bad guys caught = lots of paperwork to process and court to deal with which made sure I didn't get back to this thread until now!
Seeing RVRKID taking off, and reading all of the...
Thanks @RVRKID, any info and insight is appreciated. I expect you to enjoy your vacation while it is happening, but hopefully when you return you will share your trip with us! Is that Long Beach airport you are flying out of? That's where I am leaving from, I love LGB compared to LAX. I...
I will be following this post... I just booked a flight to Maui myself, so am very interested in restaurants, activities, airport, RAC, VOG, and hotel updates! Have fun and safe travels!
Having never been to Maui and always wanting to go there, I just couldn't pass up the current airfare deals going on so I booked some flights for the end of May. I read up on what seemed to be the most recent Maui centric post...
I don't consider Terranea close to Manhattan Beach, although they are less than 20 miles apart. It is a beautiful location though. Depends on the size of the gathering, but you could try looking in Redondo Beach, if it is a smaller gathering Kincaids or El Torito on the pier might have a...
The hubbie will be manning the Team Rubicon booth in San Pedro at the USS Iowa for fleet week both Sat and Sun, while I will be putting out flags at the LA National cemetery Saturday morning, then at the booth Sunday. We both volunteer with Team Rubicon, which is a disaster relief organization...
I am still a fan of Polar bear soft sided coolers. They are well made and the company has GREAT customer service. They will even monogram them for you if you want. They hold ice well at the river in high heat temps out on the boat as long as you make an effort to keep the zipper shut. I...
I cook alot of Salmon on the traeger. I use a squeeze of lemon, lemon slices, butter, and fresh dill and put it on at 225. (Of course, salt and pepper too). Turns out wonderful, everyone who has eaten it that way always asks for more. I also do the 3-2-1 ribs quite often, but unless I am...
I just got gas this morning at Costco in Torrance, got there at 05:15 and there was a line out to Lomita Bl. Went pretty quick though. Normally when I go get gas at that time in the AM, I just drive right up and no line at all. Paid $5.85 for premium. Two weeks ago at 05:30 the lines were...
I have several pairs of Lane boots. While they cater more towards women's styles, they do carry a few men's boots as well. Every pair of Lane's that I own are comfy, and really well made. But they are definitely more of a modern style cowboy boot, and made for going out not everyday work...
