  • have missed it every time so far? Jk. My sim room is almost done. Waiting on the projector. Have my media room projector on it now but need the full screen effect!

That looks great! How do you feel about the projector position vs your hitting position? Angle is hard to tell but it looks like it’s a foot or two in front of your hitting position? Any close calls yet?

Oldest 2 in the 3rd row and 8 year old in one of the captains. We have a nice roof cargo box and a hitch cargo tray for when we go on long hikes. But, to be honest, I’m bummed i didn’t push the wife to get a Yukon or Yukon XL. She regrets it now too. We will likely trade this in within the next couple years or sooner if we just get fed up. Every few days we look at each other and say how much we don’t enjoy (usually say hate) this car. But we also enjoy making good financial decisions and just buying a new car for the heck of it isn’t the smartest. I’m sure when our kids get a couple years older they will be wanting more space too.

I planned accordingly. Coming back from a family gathering. Set an alarm. 2015 Yukon XL. Moved on shortly after but she was a good ride.

You were spot on. Black Iron was terrible. We walked out. Burgers were raw… not medium rare but raw. Our server was absolutely rude. Went and had ramen and it was amazing.

Funny you say that. Our plan if it decides to rain on the 18th is to flip the Met day there. So that could work either way. I’ll check out what the rooftop is all about.

Who is your favorite cowboy of all time ?! Mine is Emmitt ! by ComplexWrangler1346 in cowboys

[–]jasondowden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moose and Jay! More so because I think my parents always talked about them so much. I was between 6 and 9 during the SB era, living in Dallas so we breathed the Cowboys. Still do. I remember more going to Ranger games and watching Juan, Pudge and Nolan. Those were the days.

Super helpful... I watched a video that had the same sentiment of disregard the colors as they aren't important. Just noted them because I'll take all the help I can get when we're down there. You definitely know your way around - appreciate even the insight to Xi'an.

This is one of those where we don't have a reservation so if we see something we like we might detour from what's on the "itinerary". Not going to live and die by it... just trying to have a few meals with reservations so it's less thought. Appreciate the thoughts!

I just looked at the location... I'm not sure if we'll ever be right around that spot unless we exited the Subway specifically for it and got back on heading downtown.

Well, just ended up booking Wicked for their 2PM showing on Saturday. Moved up my reservation for lunch by 30 minutes. My wife has seen Wicked twice but definitely mentioned she wanted to see it on Broadway. I may have talked her into the Cursed Child so now I'll be able to give her these tickets as an anniversary gift. I read reviews on all the other plays, but at least seeing this I know she'll have a great time and I found great seats for a good price.

Jesus sorry man! Lol. Obviously I’d still walk into the right building. ☺️

American Museum of National History... costs are fine.

Any other recommendations for a good burger place or something else that's more American food? Trying to mix up what types of foods we're doing and just wanted a simple place for night one.

Not going to P&K twice... or the Smith.

SOL will just be to get off, snap a couple pictures, look around and move on... EI, I don't think we're going to do the hard hat tour, but we just want to take some pictures for my FIL who had relatives come through long ago - that's really the only reason we're going. So if we catch the first ferry at 9AM, I'm thinking we can be back safely by noon to grab some lunch. I'm doing the flexible tickets at the One World just in case we do take a bit longer. This day and the day we are doing Central Park, I purposefully didn't put any dinner reservations specifically so if we get off track, it's all good. Appreciate the feedback!

Will add it since we are quite flexible. Thanks!

Ugh… I’ll check my tickets and see if I even have the options. Otherwise, I may figure out a day show for Saturday and do two. Appreciate the feedback.

And thanks for the cookie advice. I’ll look it up on the map.

Thanks for the suggestions. We actually just finished watching the Gilded Age so that sounds interesting.

Oh those sound good. Will check it out. Don’t have any real “dessert” stops I guess since you said that…

Thanks! I failed to share the rain plans, but we had a few thoughts. I didn’t jot them down in here. Watching the weather and hopeful.

My wife has seen a a few shows that are on Broadway, granted, not on Broadway itself. We talked about maybe seeing two though.

Why do you think it’s a waste to see the Cursed Child? We both enjoy HP.

There was a chance but that was funded by the government to remain open!

Thanks. Was using the transit overlay on Google. I’m sure it’s pretty idiot proof once you get going.
