Very nice. One of those people you love knows you very well.

Grilling and chilling.
50 minutes for the whole yard. The reel mower requires me to go over a spot up to 6 times to get it all. It provides a much better/appealing cut, so there is a reason. My yard is hilly and undulating which requires cutting it from different angles to get a consistent level of grass. The regular mower doesn’t go as low, so it is easier to have a single level cut, just much taller than what I get with the reel mower. The other issue I run in to is that once the grass starts growing it gets too thick for the manual reel mower. It gets super tough to push through the thick grass, so it will skip over spots. So you have to go over again to get the grass that got skipped over. If I had a powered reel mower(battery or gas) this part wouldn’t be an issue.
Anyone played PLO? ‘M going to Vegas in a few weeks and I see a WSOP event on the calendar.
After two days, three states and ≈1000 miles I'm left pondering the following: If I'm passing you on your left, why you gotta speed up? If you speedup in the first place we won't be here.
My cat that has been requiring meds every 8 hours has been missing for 72 hours. I feel very divided about this development.
That's over two days. My longest single trip was the 699 mi from Duke Central Campus to Tropicana Field, St. Petersburg in 1999. The return trip two nights later seemed longer even though we split between three of us. I don't think any of use said a word for the first six hours.
I left Asheville at 4pm, got to Memphis. Slept 6 hours and was in Albuquerque the next night.
That's about 1500 miles.
I was young.
That's a haul. I regularly (twice a year) make a "day trip" to Martha's Vineyard, 740 miles and you have a ferry to meet in Wood's Hole before it's last run of the day around 9 pm. Not 1500 miles by a long shot but driving 95 through NYC and CT can induce a psychotic episode. Boston gets a bad rap for drivers but CT drivers are the demon spawn of Satan and Flannery O'Connor's "creative" brain. Just a collection of freaks and sideshow misfits. I swear to God, don't stop for gas unless it's in Fairfield.
985 miles straight thru with only stops for gas and munchies from Gastonia, NC to Bath, Maine. Did it to save one day of leave by checking in early at the shipyard. Checked into a motel before checking in at the shipyard and promptly fell asleep until the next day. No leave days saved.
1,207 miles from Cincinnati to San Antonio with 4 very pissed off felines. No stops longer than 15 minutes. 20 hours straight from old home to empty new home.
I do probably 4 or 5 drives a year of 700-850 miles. I have done a 950 miler this year from Asheville to Wilmington and then Wilmington to Tuscaloosa this year.
Oh, I'm certain to be awful. I haven't played a hand of poker for money in 6 years or so. When I still played semi-regularly, I had gone out to Vegas to play in an official WSOP event but other things transpired(very hot at the craps tables) and I never entered an event. I still have that on the list of things I need to do and when I go in a few weeks, I want to be able to cross that off my list with the lowest $ loss possible. There is a $800 NLH DeepStack event that starts earlier in the day before I get there but I think I'll still be too late. Then there is a $600 Mixed NLH, PLO event a couple days later. So, it looks like my donation will be to that event.
