Poverty Pole
I’d nominate Irish’s GTI. I can’t imagine a GTI is too pleasant at almost 200k miles. I am STILL rocking the Grey Ghost..... JUST turned over 190K. Got some unsightly rust spots on the hood and over the windshield. Everything works. But def need struts that I am likely not going to splurge the $150...

Day 3 We set out for the Ring of Kerry today. It was just incredible. Picture's don't do it justice. Between the mountains and the ocean fronts it was just spectacular. I loved how multiple time we were driving through dense forests and the ocean would just appear. The bb host recommended a ferry to...

I forgot to mention that I tailored the trip to B&Bs within 90 minutes drive-time of one another, We had general areas we wanted to explore but did not stick to a hard and fast itinerary. I trusted the spirit of Eire to guide us and she did. We ended up almost always getting to our next lodging ...

What are you doing now? Everyone healthy? Yes thankfully everyone is healthy. No recurrence on my malady. We made it to Ireland......twice. We went the first time as a bucket list trip, the second (in less than a year) because My son is over there on a Study Abroad scholarship. Geology at the Colle...

Wow, I can't believe that this thread petered out two years ago when I was contemplating a kitchen remodel. For those of you that remember I was trying to do a refresh on the cheap rather than paying the freight for a complete gut. However, we found a guy who would do it for approx 2/3 of the going ...

Counter depth keeps shit up front so you stay on top of freshness/spoliation issues. If you need more "space" what you need is a garage fridge. The life essential nobody talks about. Yep, or a small freezer in the basement, which is what we have. I have a garage fridge and I am getting a ...

Mt olde "locus laboris" is on Strike. I don't know the detail but those guys have the highest pay and best benefits of any company I have ever seen. They also work an hour on and an hour off. This is not mandated, its just something that work force decided to do. However they do work a rid...

What we have is nothing special but they're fine, She wants built out cabinets to be flush with the Fridge and the fridge moved over so we can get a deep pantry cabinet on one side She wants the sink replaced and moved to a corner so it doesn't splash the breakfast bar...

I don't know about CostCo but Sam's club offers free shipping. I piggyback on my brothers account for K cup coffee (we like Peet's and a few others) and paper goods...shipped to the door cheaper than I can buy it locally.

We'd like to change the layout a bit but that would necessitate the added expense of new flooring as well. :nope: I think once we get the quote for cabinets, moving and replacing the sink, and granite or quartz countertops, the price will allow me to talk her down to counter tops and a new stove an...

"Just" those things would have a massive effect on any kitchen. :dat: Assuming the layout isn't objectionable and the cabinets are in decent shape, this is about all you'd need to do. We'd like to change the layout a bit but that would necessitate the added expense of new flooring as well...
