One for the kids: What type of fireworks do ducks like? Fire-Quackers

Looks like you’re in seat 27F to me... Oh! The sunset is beautiful as well !

As one who can't seem to cut two pieces of wood the same length, I'm envious!

Thank you for this good article @heatherd - I got to the end of the first paragraph when I saw this ominous quote: “Patience and multitasking will be your greatest assets.” :slp

I want one!

Got one before they stopped making it: https://www.homebrewit.com/italian-amarone-with-grape-skins-winexpert-international/

Daughter graduated University last Sunday, last of the family members left today. Since then, I've been staring at all the empty spaces in the wine rack... Obviously time to get back to bottling.

You two did good by having them delivered. I went to Costco Friday afternoon, and they offered the same ones, but they had been pretty well picked over. "...It's not the gift, it's the thought" wouldn't have cut it!

I just might have to open a bottle and celebrate with you Mike! Congrats!

How can I turn down a request from a guy that will soon be opening his DR home to the group...? :pic Kit includes: EC-1118 and K1-V1116 Yeast, F-Pack, and all the usual stuff. Can't judge the "size of the F-Pack" but looks like ~16 oz or so.

Thought this was vulgar the first time I heard it while working in Texas. While listening to some music in a club one night, this girl yells out between songs, “We want some Coon-Ass music!” Everyone else chimed in with, “Yeah! Coon-Ass music!” ...Only then did I understand.

Dang... Busted already - I've only been here for ~9 months! Belize is good, but while Costa Rica has a large number of Gringo ExPats, the red tape and crime is worse there than in the majority of other countries. Seems like a lot of folks are looking to retire where medical and cost of living...

Don't forget we also need roving bar service
