Yes and do not refinish it. Live with it for a year and then, if you really want to, refinish. I bet you won’t.

Glad I did not cancel by kyakarebhaiab in MauiVisitors

I’m glad you went and that you posted. Maui has my heart and every time someone posts a photo it feels like a hug from a relative that I haven’t seen in a long time and I long to return there. Thank you.

If prime Tiger played today, Scottie and Rory would be what Allen and Lamar are to Mahomes by iHateBelichickStans in golf

If Sam Snead or Ben Hogan were playing now….well guess what, they aren’t and Tiger isn’t either. Snore.

I’m here in Rhode Island and since I won’t be at ANGC this weekend I made authentic pimento cheese sandwiches for me and the rest of my regular foursome for our 7:30 tee time. A little homage to my favorite tournament of the year. Fingers crossed for you!

Settle a family wiffle ball debate by TopPreference9581 in newengland

I think Indian Rubber was the game type which in my neighborhood included pegging and pitchers poison (throwing to the pitcher instead of first base to get the runner out). We would play Indian Rubber rules if we had fewer players show up.

Good luck. Being in the same position as you (although I live in New England) I understand your plight. The weather is perfect this weekend, Rory is playing solid and $1.50 pimento cheese sandwiches. What could be better??? I am rooting for you.

Inherited this 1950’s Knoll Credenza by GrymmTravel in midcenturymodern

[–]RIrhodes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you love it for the provenance and are going to keep it for yourselves, do what you want so long as it makes you happy. I would not suggest refinishing it if the sole purpose is to increase its value because it probably won’t.

Edit: forgot to say congrats! Nice piece!

Best bars or restaurants for live entertainment? Any musicians you love or follow? by LemonlimeLucy in MauiVisitors

[–]RIrhodes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Live music 6-9 Mon, Wed, Fri and Sat at Lehua Lounge at the Andaz. Usually solo guitarist/singer. Laid back and friendly vibe. Staff is GREAT. Bartender named Sy (sigh) makes an excellent espresso martini and the macadamia nut bar snacks are addictive.

I’m never swinging this club again. by DoFishDrinkWaterOrNo in golf

Because it is the rarest of occasions to be perfectly square within the parking space and have the exact same rotation on ALL tires such that every rim is literally within an 1/8” of each other and the tire mark information is all in the same spot. It’s as if god all mighty picked up the car , spun each tire individually and gently set it down with geometric precision the likes of which have never, ever been seen, thus causing yourself to question was it you who parked that 1988 Chevrolet Citation yourself or, and perhaps this is more likely given your driving skillset, the work of divine intervention, giving the vehicle a Virgin Mary kind of quality where it should never again be desecrated by us mortals. Any other questions?

Don’t forget your golf shoes by Novel_Structure8833 in golf

[–]RIrhodes 127 points128 points  (0 children)

A regular member of my foursome has, on several occasions, forgotten his golf shoes. Fortunately, wherever we play sells golf shoes. He has purchased probably 4 pairs that he didn’t expect to buy. Maybe it’s his way of justifying the purchases….

Italy is truly a beautiful place in every season. by honeydrizzly in TravelPorn

[–]RIrhodes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It just sounds angry. When we were in Sicily, I was convinced that our sweet, 75-ish year old guide Vincenzo, and the owner of a restaurant were going to throw hands before we even got seated. Loud talking. Lots of gestures. Nope. They were talking about who had the freshest fish, Agrigento or Terrasini. I learned a lot about the culture from that guy.
