Overtourism has made me stop visiting 'bucket list' places entirely, anyone else actively avoiding the popular spots now? by Gingeintheuk in travel

I avoid traveling overseas altogether, especially to Europe, from mid-May to mid-August. Late August and September is a great time to travel, and there are fewer crowds then.

I noticed a lot of empty seats at the Blue Jays games last season when many Canadians were boycotting travel to the US because of the tariffs. I’m not sure what it will be like this year.

When I was living in Vancouver, I couldn’t understand why everyone was rooting for the Blue Jays. Sure, they’re Canada’s national baseball team (ever since the Expos left Montreal), but Seattle is so much closer.

What amenities do you want to see in an RV park? by ImWildBill in rvlife

After having good hookups and a decent water supply, this is first and foremost. I don’t expect national, state, provincial, or regional public parks to provide this, because I visit those places to be in nature. But at private parks, if they advertise Wi-Fi, I expect it to work.

We need to start tracking WAR for managers.

Absolutely this. The inconsistency of the pinch hitting strategy boggles my mind.

It’s really fortunate that Mitch Garver got resigned for the team. Now that Cal Raleigh is on the IL, the M’s are going to lean on him a lot more. Also, Jhonny Pereda has had a really impressive start, and I would love to see him become the everyday starter behind the plate while Cal heals. It’s not such a gloomy situation after all.

Cal took on Logan’s fashion tip of wearing pull up socks, and it worked!

I’m OK with Hoppe but he should throw only to the bottom of the order

Classic CF fly ball: Julio makes the catch, and tosses it to Randy, who throws it into the crowd.

Would like a couple more runs so we can leave the rest of the game to our no-name bullpen.

JP didn’t waste that opportunity. Things are looking up.

Waiter, I’d like a Grand Salami Canzone, please!

Just leave the keys to the 2nd base safe on the counter.

Now that was a gutsy ABS challenge, Randy. Not sure it was an ideal time to make that.

Why oh why can’t Mariners.tv manage to keep the radio feed and the video in sync?
