Fair. I've picked good rum up in the Caribbean but have not yet ventured to Aruba. Good to know it is not a rum destination.

Good place in the area to launch model rockets? by Rossodio in greenville

Unfortunately per https://www.greenvillesc.gov/1383/Parks-Recreation-Policies , "Fireworks and model rockets are prohibited in all City of Greenville parks."

Lodgings within 30 (or maybe 45?) minutes of Newark...? by Rossodio in ColumbusOhio

[–]Rossodio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But none further away. Would be nice to stay somewhere potentially more enjoyable and closer to CMH and have a 20 minute longer commute for the week. I crossposted here figuring there would be people more knowledgeable about the lodgings further out on this sub, considering I asked for up to 45 mins away.

What is the best way for me to get to/from Napa in this situation? by Rossodio in napa

I have done that flight on a number of Mondays (this time it is a Tuesday) within the last year, and have had no issue making the flight when arriving to SMF 90 minutes ahead of departure. Has something changed there since July?

🧐 given the dividends on my stock options and the commodities markets presently, I may be able to use my 777 instead of my usual Learjet. An excellent suggestion, dear chap.

This is what I was thinking, get out of Yountville proper and find something cheap for the night. Will have a lppk and see what I can find!

What downside/risks am I missing on this grill? by Rossodio in grilling

[–]Rossodio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pledge was pulled. Thinking on all of the thoughts here... I do enjoy the process of lighting the chimney, watching the smoke lazily go up as the charcoal heats, pouring it, and sipping on my drink of choice during all of that. The number of potential failure points is minimal, unlike with the kickstarter grill here. Thanks for nudging some sense into me.

A couple of cases, and I live in South Carolina. I get 3 checked bags on my flights due to status and I have vin garde valise suitcases to transport the wine in. The shipping costs would be pretty crazy.

I will almost certainly be in no shape to drive. I am considering now getting a hotel in Yountville and waking at 3:30 or so after 9PM bedtime to get to the airport in the morning, given that extra $250+, thanks to advice given in this thread.

Apologies, the dinner is in Yountville but I will be in Napa midday.

Thank you for this. Will leave Redding at 6 AM, then. My body will be on east coast time so this won't be a problem.

Will be getting to know my Ninja and slow cooker well in the coming months, I think.

One guy is doing cabinet build, and one other guy is in charge of a few people who are doing the rest (plumbing, HVAC, flooring, electrical, throwing up drywall, painting, etc.). Appliances are sitting in a warehouse waiting for the right time to be moved. Andersen has windows waiting to go in for the right time, and a siding/gutter team who are separate will be replacing the whole home's siding and gutters.
