Out of the 3 you mentioned, Chicago in October. There’s just more to do there.

The Four Seasons at Las Colinas in Dallas is very nice with a great pool and a lot of things to do in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Hot Springs and surrounding area is a good place to go because of the lakes there and Magic Springs for kids.

I haven’t been in a while but if I go soon it will be MRGO.

Check out Casa Karma in Puerto Vallarta. My family went there several years ago and may have been the best trip we’ve taken as a family. It matches what you are looking for.

I’ve had good look buying vehicles from Enterprise Car Sales. I would look there before buying anything. There’s quite a few Tacoma’s online in the area.

Aruba is not at the very top of my choices but the weather and water should be good and the Ritz which is a Marriott property is nice.

re: Southwest will switch back within 4 months

Non Southwest question but related maybe. On international flights coming into the U.S. flights from India I always see dozens of wheelchair passengers. I always wonder why but it does remind me of flying Southwest.

re: Your big regret(s) in not seeing music artist(s) live in concert

Posted by deltafarmer on 1/24/26 at 8:14 pm to Kafka

I drove my family 6 hours to Dallas to see Van Morrison 15 years ago. He announced as he started playing that he didn’t dig his old music any more so he wouldn’t be playing any of it. We didn’t know or like what he did play. It was not worth it at all.

I’ve been to Lucerne and highly recommend it. I’d also recommend taking a train through the Alps and stopping for a night or two in other Swiss mountain towns.

Something like this can happen on private clubs too. It isn’t limited to just public land.

re: "Tennis" elbow experience?...

Posted by deltafarmer on 1/15/26 at 12:43 pm to marcnbc

I had it so bad after a hard tennis match that I couldn’t lift my cell phone. I iced it, rested it a few weeks and squeezed a tennis ball ten times 2-3 times a day. It went away.

I’ve never been to St. John but I’ve heard it is beautiful. Does it qualify for a quick trip though?

Turks and Caicos is a relatively quick and easy flight. It’s definitely worth a look.

I’ve never been to Rasika but the Bombay Club is also great Indian food.

Yes you can. There are many VRBO properties in Costs Rica that offer chefs as an option.

Dot’s Diner is not specifically all seafood or Cajun but it is very good and really close to the airport.

Wife and I were there in June. We went to Herbs and Rye to check out the happy hour steaks. The place was packed with locals and the steaks were as good as any I’ve had in LV for $35. We will be going back.
