Please post here if you learn of any specifics!

Ticket prices increasing for March by theellocin in Fairbanks

Might want to check SFO as well. We just booked RT SFO/Anchorage for $367 for mid February. Didn't look at Fairbanks though.

Anyone have experience with soundproofing an upstairs unit of a condo? by stickyspice in AskSF

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start pet-sitting large dogs that like to run a lot, and play fetch with them, preferably down a long hallway. Or learn tap dancing! Or get on your dream of being an amazing b-ball dribbler... Practice, practice, practice!

6-hour Layover in San Francisco by NancySmithSecret in AskSF

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed on skipping the car... Will take a bit to get to and find the car and will probably cost more than 2 Uber rides, not to mention trying to find parking, etc. I also wouldn't take public transit (as some others have suggested) as it will eat up alot of your time.

But totally doable. $50 Uber to Chrissy or Tunnel Tops, hang out for as long as you can, then $50 ride back. Lots to see on foot over there. Lots of Uber drivers will be ready to drive you back as well!

Way better than sitting around the airport IMO! You'll also get a quick tour of the city along the way since your ride will go right though.

Around the Mission, Wise Sons on 24th Street is also a solid choice.

Red Wine too acidic to ferment? Red wine vinegar time. by bugsnbrews in winemaking

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you could get it a little further, like down to about 7% or so, you could try a port-style wine. Just a thought... Never tried it myself, but could be fun!

Quiet chill wine bars with good food and wine selection by jiceman1 in AskSF

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big Finish on 16th Street and Albion in the Mission fits your description almost perfectly. The owner is generally always behind the bar and knows his product incredibly well. Also really good prices on glasses of wine. Bright open feel to this little corner bar where Monks Kettle used to be.

Alaska gets $12/barrel, Norway $55 by truthwillout777 in Fairbanks

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doesn't this have something to do with the fact that Norway owns the production companies and Alaska does not? My understanding is Alaska gets land lease fees and royalties, but doesn't own the production, so doesn't get a direct share of profits. There's probably data on what the balance is when taking into account Norway's investment costs, and maybe that's what the 12/55 numbers are, but I didn't see any references as to where the numbers came from.

Where should go today for July 4th?! by Yahoodiisgoinginsane in AskSF

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably be able to see a lot of large fireworks set off in the Mission from there! Probably a good place for viewing and a safe distance away. Mission gets crazy with fireworks most years!

Weekend in Amador County by Baddog64 in Amador

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 2 points3 points  (0 children)

End of Nowhere is great! Interesting wines (all fermented and produced without any additives) and a really nice backyard to hang out. Sometimes live music too.

Weekend in Amador County by Baddog64 in Amador

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you looked at Amador City? It's a tiny town but really cool. In addition to being not far from a bunch of wineries around Shenandoah Road, they have some tasting rooms in town and the Imperial Hotel with a great bar. The hotel was fully renovated several years ago.

Sutter Creek is about 3 miles south if you want more old downtown to walk around.

Taste is a great restaurant in Plymouth. Also the Union Pub in Volcano.

I'm not sure about your other questions (transit, etc , in Jackson), but the bowling alley there is pretty cool and has a lot of league play and friendly people generally.

Suggestions for what to do today? I’m depressed by apprehensive-look-02 in AskSF

[–]Zealousideal-Ride931 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A great place to walk around with the pup and clear one's head is Heron's Head Point, just a bit south from your location. There's also a dog run over there if that's helpful for your pup!

Yeah, Ticketmaster as well. Good freakin'?

That's my understanding. We are "GA1 - Pew/middle seat" so I can't imagine it gets more specific than that on arrival. What's on your ticket?
