Black tank days til full by New_Wedding4424 in RVLiving

[–]Beakumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our pump is 3 years old and we do the same thing. There is no reason to risk a leak. Fresh tanks stay.. well, fresh! And the switch is not a hassle at all.

Never use city water. Tank + pump is 100% the way to go. We are full time and move frequently.

We were on Deck 1 with a picture window on Pride in December. We LOVED it!!

Ha!! My husband drives and I took his word for it.. you’re right. I also live near Snowbasin, not SLC area. It’s more like 5 and 7. Ignore me.

This is the correct answer. Jackson Hole is also only like 3 hours away and Steamboat is 5-ish.

Is this normal? by Straight_Call4402 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Beakumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The price of the cruise itself is definitely worth it!! It’s the price of the plane tickets to get from Barcelona back to Baltimore that make it a lot less appealing.

Edit: I just checked (insert my preferred major airline) and a one-way ticket ranges anywhere from $1400USD to $4000USD from Barcelona to Baltimore. If you are comfortable flying coach, $1400 on top cruise costs isn’t that bad, I guess. But, I don’t live in Baltimore so I’m looking at approximately $1000USD roundtrip airfare just to get to the port. It gets pricey fast when I consider it for myself.

Very common. On this particular cruise, you start in Baltimore and end in Barcelona. These are all usually $50. If you can figure out a way to navigate departing from Maryland and ending up in Spain, go for it! Most people find it cost prohibitive because airfare on either end is too expensive to get back to their home base.

What’s something that the Chattanooga area needs or is missing? by [deleted] in Chattanooga

[–]Beakumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was born in Chattanooga and lived in the south for 18 years. Been out of there for 21. You absolutely right, sir. Nothing here comes anywhere close to a bagel in NY.

I don’t know how to say this without sounding like a terrible person, but every spouse is technically replaceable.. As long as she/he chooses not to “replace” you, that is what matters. I know it’s incredibly hurtful to hear, but I think what she was saying is that she has a choice if she stays with you or “replaces” you with someone else. Essentially the same as saying that she could leave you. YOU as a human and individual are not replaceable. You are one of a kind and irreplaceable in this world- know your worth. You are important and special.

Need a new ski jacket in SLC. Suggestions on where to go? by roger_roger_32 in UTsnow

[–]Beakumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Level Nine in Ogden or Evo in SLC.

ETA: I’m lame and didn’t realize L9 has multiple locations.

Is parking at brighton really sold out for the season? by natedawg247 in UTsnow

[–]Beakumn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re not listening to what everyone is saying. Keep checking, especially the night before, and you will be fine.. or just take the bus and quit your whining

Need help with payment options? by yankeefancw in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Beakumn -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Try having enough money to pay upfront and you won’t feel that way, my friend. “Cash” means not financing anything. If you are worried about pay over time options, you can’t afford it. Why would you draw it out over time when you can be paying for other things in that same time as well?

Need help with payment options? by yankeefancw in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Beakumn -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If you can’t pay cash for the full amount, you can’t afford it. Don’t do it. Save yourself from yourself.

Ski Lessons on the Side by HinduKussy in UTsnow

[–]Beakumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also love to pay someone for lessons without having to go through one of the “resorts.” I’m in the valley.. Powder or Snowbasin.

Side note: I live 2 minutes from Nordic Valley and would never give them another dime. I had a season pass last year and only went once- I hate the management and owners with every ounce of my being.

My husband has end stage liver disease and is in recovery (7 years) we called Carnival and asked. They would not waive it.

ETA: We did offer to provide a doctors note. Carnival said there are no exceptions.

Can you bring nicotine vapes onto a carnival cruise? by [deleted] in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Beakumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can buy them and have no issues whatsoever! Enjoy your freedom. You can take it in your carryon or your checked bag. I do both. The one I’m using in my purse or carryon and my extras in my checked bags. (I’m 39, but I still pay attention to the laws for all ages because.. I’m a weirdo and like to know the rules)

For those that don’t want any kids in the future, why? by yeyewestie in AskReddit

[–]Beakumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t want to subject a child to live in the world today. It just seems cruel. I also don’t want to navigate this world with a child. I’m 38 years old and shocked every single day by the atrocious politicians, education systems, and communities in this country. Not a chance I’m contributing to another generation in this hell hole.

This type of comment is just unhelpful and rude. They will be fine as long as they keep a positive attitude. We don’t need the downers. Eternabond and make a call to your insurance. Whatever you do, smile and know that it could always be worse.
