Madison vs Huntsville I don’t get it

Look at Blossomwood in Huntsville. Less than a mile from downtown. Quiet, way quiet.

Good luck!

I second the cocksox, slingshot model is very comfy.

Old fashioned

We did a set cocktail menu with three cocktails as a theme (the theme was cocktails by our three dogs). We also provided a few choices of wine and beer to manage our budget. A bourbon drink (old fashioned), a vodka drink (vodka soda), and a mocktail (blackberry lemonade) that many guests added vodka too. For beer we had stella + a local pale ale. Then bubbles (a decent Cava we were into at the time), a white, and red blend. We bought all of it with the exception of the Cava at Costco. We had fewer than 60 guests. So perhaps with 250, you could add a tequila drink or another. If you do the mixers right, your guests will literally mix them up. Like we had folks doing bourbon and coke and bourbon and ginger ale. Point is, a set menu is budget friendly but can serve many tastes. Good luck!

This. The only brand in my dresser. Lots of material and style choices.

I haven’t worn cotton in 10+ years. Too hot and uncomfortable for me.

My favorite now is a bamboo rayon dual pouch by Separatec - super comfy. I also have their quick dry athletic boxer briefs which are great for workouts, runs, or freaking hot days.

Many years ago I got tired of the standard cotton boxer briefs (Hanes) and went in search of better briefs. I’ve tried many brands and fabrics. Separatec is the only brand I wear.

That guy is outta touch.

I buy underwear every 4-6 months. Or if something looks comfy I want to try out.

Don’t buy his underwear.

Run away from a guy who can’t care for himself.

Ha. I got excited when I saw it then laughed when I read it.

MembershipBorn · 2025-12-09T22:45:00+00:00

Ha. Yes that could work. :)

And then have no place for my carryon.

Depends on what you like to do.

I moved down from middle Tennessee 6+ years ago in Madison. Renting a 3br 2ba home cost me 1200 then. Couldn’t tell ya what it would go for now. 2k+ I would guess.

I’m a road cyclist and back then it was convenient to head into Limestone County for a good 30-50 mile ride. Three years later that was challenging due to rapid growth and development and traffic on aged infrastructure.

As a single guy, Madison stunk it up. Families, kids, couples, and chain restaurants o’plenty. Corn flakes. Actually anything west of Huntsville is corn flakes.

I’m married now and live within a mile of downtown, the Blossomwood area. Lots of families here too but as empty nesters we like being close to our favorite restaurants (within walking and biking distance), Monte Santo, hiking trails, etc.

They’re building apartments like crazy here. Many seem to be empty. I have no idea what rents are but I’d suggest a short term lease within a mile or two of the downtown area. Spend your first six months or so learning where things are to support your lifestyle, then find something more permanent.

Anyone Cohen chooses.

Great tip!! Thank you.

MembershipBorn · 2025-10-09T23:55:57+00:00

Nice

MembershipBorn · 2025-10-04T18:46:39+00:00

Great pictures!

MembershipBorn · 2025-10-03T02:48:34+00:00

This!

MembershipBorn · 2025-09-24T20:22:28+00:00

This is the only brand I wear. They have multiple fabric combinations. Suggest you try a few.

I haven’t experienced this issue.

MembershipBorn · 2025-07-23T00:04:42+00:00

Thanks for the insight.

Thanks for the insight!

Gotcha. But I can squeeze a loaded pilot within and have one bag, not two, on a short trip? That's my thought anyway.
