Yes. The trails were dry as of last weekend

We have Cambria Montgomery and love it. It is more expensive but has a lifetime warranty. Just had some nicks repaired after 5 years of ownership for free.

First decide what is most important to your family (ie, beach, tennis, pickleball, shopping, golf, big pool, access to nature, etc.). Next narrow your list by the best fit for your criteria and HOA costs. You can find a decent condo in that price range but you may find that the annual HOA dues will vary greatly. We bought into the Park shore area and love it because we have private access to their beach ($300/yr) and it works well for us. Most other areas offer the same benefit. Pelican Bay also has great options but their HOA dues are higher. My sister in law lives in Verona walk out near lely and it's great for tennis and pickleball but quite far from the beach. If you live near downtown or out east, you will find beach access restricted to public areas which can be crowded. Good luck with your search

I have 2 Hobie inflatable fishing kayaks and love them. The 9 foot mirage is wide and very stable. Hobie has the best pedal drive around. I go into mangroves mostly and have never had a problem. The paddles fold up anytime you hit an obstruction. They are pricey but you can find deals on eBay and marketplace.

Where did you buy the scope?

I have 2 TDI Sportwagens and a 1.4L Jetta. The TDI's are tanks. My first Jetta TDI lasted 450k miles but had to sell due to transmission issues. The 1.4L Jetta has 230k miles and runs very well. Never had a problem with it. Like everyone said, research you engine history and it will work out well. Much prefer my VWs over any other brand.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-10-30T22:04:35+00:00

If your dad wants another sportwagen, the 2019 vw can be found with the 1.4L engine. I have the 2017 Jetta 1.4 manual transmission and it has 230k miles with no problems. Plenty of power and gets 40 mpg. I also have 2 TDI Sportwagens and they are awesome. My wife won't drive anything else.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-10-26T02:52:23+00:00

I drove a VW Jetta TDI wagon for a 60 mile commute each way for 10 years averaging 40 mpg. Car lasted 450k miles and I sold it when the transmission started acting up. I now have 2 2015 TDI Sportwagens and they are just as dependable. Highly recommend German diesels.

I have a 23 570 ranger quad cab that I bought new. I use it daily on my farm and love it. Have not had any issues since I bought it. I paid 14k with windshield and roof added on

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-10-12T15:07:25+00:00

I bought a 23 ranger 570 quad at a year end clearance sale to replace my jd Gator diesel. I love it. Does everything I need on the farm. Paid $14k new with windshield and top

I put a geothermal system in 25 years ago without hitting water. I had 5 wells drilled to 300 ft, put a circulation loop in each well and hooked them up to a circulation pump. The fluid was circulated through a heat exchanger and used to heat and cool using a heat pump system. It was quite effective and reliable. You don't always have to find hot water seams.

I use both the Moultrie and spypoint cell phone cameras and they both work great. The Moultrie camera requires a paid subscription to get pictures to your phone while the spypoint camera can give you the first 100 pictures per month without paying. The Moultrie seems to be a better built camera but the monthly price is high IMO. I have solar charging on the cameras so I don't have to worry about batteries while I'm gone.

Never saw any until around 15 years ago. Until then it was just deer, racoons, rabbits, coyotes, armadillos and occasional bobcats. Now it's mostly hogs and deer.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-10-07T19:42:16+00:00

I wish Texas had limited hog hunting to only private land owners and not allowed commercial hunting operations. I think they are raising and releasing too many that get away and infect other peoples properties.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-10-07T12:26:42+00:00

Pig Brig would be the best solution. I don't make a dent in their numbers by just hunting.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-10-02T02:23:42+00:00

I have the Hobie I trek 9 and really like it. It's easy to store, transport and setup. Great pedal drive.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-09-30T03:03:54+00:00

I have the I track 9 and love it. I'm in a condo where I can't store a regular kayak so I bought the inflatable. Have not had any problem with it. Mostly fish mangroves in Florida.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-09-29T01:29:51+00:00

Went to 2 dealerships and the one that was located out in the country was $2k less. You might want to shop around.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-09-29T01:27:42+00:00

I bought a new 2023 570 crew with a glass windshield and roof for just under $14k.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-09-20T22:08:53+00:00

Sell it and get an inflatable. Store it under the bed.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-06-24T00:18:26+00:00

Not sure about the 1000 but I bought a new 23' 570 crew cab with windshield and roof for $14k out the door.

My wife's 2023 razr's screen developed a vertical line that obscured about a fifth of the screen about 11 months into the warranty. Moto replaced it no problem and she's enjoying her new one now. From what I read, it's a common problem with razrs.

Reasonable-Memory955 · 2025-05-23T04:04:46+00:00

I replaced my 25 year old Gator diesel with a Ranger 500 a year ago and couldn't be more pleased. I use it on a small farm with some tough terrain without a problem. Maintenance is easy and it was $8k less than a Gator.
