    Harbor freight jack.

    Had an old Snap On 2 ton that wouldn't hold pressure anymore. A kit to repair it was over $100. So I got a Daytona 3 ton long-reach low-profile w/rapid pump in a pretty green color. Best jack I have ever owned.

    alaska cruise

    Something to consider......according to the Medicare Handbook 2025, regular Medicare generally doesn't cover medical care outside the US. If you have a Medigap policy, it may or may not cover you. Same with an Advantage plan. Like was mentioned above, an emergency medical evacuation from a...

    alaska cruise

    Agree 100%.....especially on Alaska trip, good views from your cabin. Those inside cabins are like being in a box......kind of claustrophobic anyway...lol We did a Norway-Northern Lights cruise in January on Viking.....all cabins had balconies....no interior rooms at all.

    alaska cruise

    That's the one we went on. Very nice ship....only carries about 100 passengers plus crew. That ship was made just for the Galapagos. There are no cruise ship terminals in the islands, so every time you get off the ship they use RIB boats with Yamaha OBs to get you to shore. The rear of the...

    Retired pilot here as well (rotorhead).....a guy I used to work with quit to go fly with a tour outfit in Hawaii. He had an "incident" and flew his AStar into the ocean, killing 4 of his passengers. The authorities in Hawaii thought his actions were reckless, and nearly filed voluntary...

    alaska cruise

    Been on a few cruises, by far the best were Alaska and Galapagos Islands.....On the Alaskan Inside Passage trip most of the passengers were retired/elderly folks who were there to see Alaska, not getting drunk and partying. The Galapagos trip was more of an expedition than a laid back cruise...

    Nobody fishing?

    Sorry to hear about your buddy passing. You gave him some great memories for sure. Unfortunately for my neighbor, Willy, his health took a bad turn shortly after my post about him last year. He was so feeble I was afraid he would get injured getting in/out of the boat. I wish I could have...

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

    Jerry, you are in a good spot there on the Atlantic side......that big bend area between Pensacola and Tampa gets hammered a lot. My uncle lives in Jacksonville. Out of all those storms he only got rain and wind. Didn't even lose power. Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year! 🎄☃️🌲

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

    Rich folk buy several homes......one where it's cool in the summer and the other where it's warm in the winter......unfortunately I'm not one of the rich folk. Living along the Texas gulf coast is great for the winter, but the summer, not so much.......
