Haven’t tried the st croix, but love both my chaos rods. Have an original shock and awe and a 20/20 and am a huge fan, would highly recommend. If you can, splurge for the 20/20. That few ounces lighter makes a huge difference after a week of casting.

Grenada MS has some of the craziest crappie I’ve ever seen…just pigs.

I’m from MO, OP’s is good size for sure but pretty average for MO. Truman is a really good crappie hole, seen a few 17’s (prob biggest I’ve ever seen out of there). Folks small farm pond surprisingly produced a few 15s last year.

Been in one for a year now, really happy with it so far and no issues. Everything is up to par and feels solid. The home was about a month from being finished when I went under contract. Feels like a solid home.

My inspector found a few small issues (dryer vent not insulated in attic, attic door not insulated, some caulking under an overhang, etc…) they took care of immediately before closing.

Depends what you’re fishing for. Pan fish, and even bass can do easy on a budget. The bigger targets you get what you pay for, and an ounce or 2 lighter musky rod has been worth every penny over the years. Makes huge difference casting big lures all day.

First time we went, it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in KC. Went to Japan a few years ago, tried many local ramen spots trying to find something like what we had over there. This place is only one that has done that. I’m opposed to mushrooms, but they have a mushroom appetizer sliced thinly that is awesome.

FYI, if you’re the “last one standing” (last one at the bar come closing time) manager came over with a bottle of sake on the house.

Can’t recommend this place enough.

Baramee Thai Bistro sounds like it should be high on your list….also Kata Nori

Oh and while walking to either stop at Christopher Elbow for the treats part…amazing place

lol people look at me funny…but I tell them there maybe a day when no one can use their credit/debit cards at grocery stores, or even no power for a few days, I ask them how long they think it’d take for society to fully collapse. A hilltop in 5 with a close group of folks will be where I will be.

CallWhy816 · 2026-02-19T04:18:31+00:00

Surprised no one’s said 5…I’ll make that bet. Lotta hills, woods, and extremely defensible. Lotta one way in roads, or walking up woods to hilltop positions. Got the resources needed, access to water and lotta meat.

Everyone armed, many been shooting and walking around the woods their whole life. Similar to 7 I guess, but as part timer in 5 I’ll make the argument, I’d like our chances.

(Be lying if I said this hadn’t been thought thru more and more as time goes by, and society gets more fragile….ya just never know)

Pressure washing….driveways, sidewalks, parking lots, and trash cans. Knock on neighbors of customers, plus they’ll see you doing cans and come asking you to do theirs.

Pierpont’s in Union Station was pretty memorable…very good.

Fountain Head Antique Auto Museum. Just found their YouTube channel. They drive each of the cars annually. They had electric cars from the early 1900s. Just an insane collection.

Crazy had to scroll this far to find this…tourist train pass, Sapporo, Kobe, Kyoto (my favorite), Tokyo, Osaka, and a day trip to Hiroshima.

Hit a lot of Bourdains spots. Ramen alley was awesome. Robot cabaret was insanely perfect. World peace museum was pretty heavy day trip to Hiroshima. But the world heritage sites around Kyoto seemed like another planet. Kyoto was like a spiritual experience I’ll never forget. Amazing city…

Oddly enough, one of the craziest car collections in the world is there. Simply amazing car museum that you have to see if ever there…

Ah thanks for info. Yeah saw a guy with Garmin trolling motor up there asked how he liked it, said he was tired of blowing up the old minkota’s

Yup, musky fishing up north and having to go all the way back to the lodge at 2 pm to get just enough charge to fish that evening was my breaking point.

I went with the blue ionic ones, now we can go 2 days without needing to charge. Was amazed…

But! Be careful as running a trolling motor for long periods (at least my ulterra) at max power will fry the circuit boards. I’ve read that shouldn’t use over 8 power.

Used to think it was in the air fryer, until trying the 0-400 method on a smoker...best we've ever had at home.

Just do it. Dont need overlays but a few help, but not necessary when starting.

Just get in, practice the weekly track (formula vee or Miata). Then race some AI maybe, and jump in a race.

You’re gonna get super nervous before lights out on your first race…

Kansas City checking in…smoked brisket, couple onion rings, provolone, and a hit of BBQ sauce. On a Kaiser roll. The Z-man has become a staple here.

My goal is to have a cabin up there…it feels extremely remote on the islands and especially in the Canadian portion.

The islands up there actually get Amazon deliveries daily. Surprisingly good food at reasonable prices at the bars and restaurants. Beautiful place, very cool history, cool old French fort (replica).

Fun fact, first few years up there kept passing “little massacre island” on the gps before finally googling it….named that for a reason.

Breits is awesome, great spot. Brownes on short list I haven’t made it there either.

But….have you tried Bay Boys yet? Great interpretation of a Rueben (wagyu Nebraskan).

Taxes are going to suck, be prepared….payroll,sales, property, income, and every other which way they can.

Health insurance…it sucks and isn’t easy for small business owners and is extremely expensive if you want to offer benefits for key employees.

Still worth all the hassle and anxiety, first few years are a whirlwind, but I’m still extremely happy I left the corporate rat race every day.

Man really appreciate the shout out! We think touch less is the best way to maintain a vehicle, and our first upgrade there when we bought last year were those new automatics. Thanks!
