If farmers could raise their prices then we wouldn’t have a farm crisis.

I would have picked Hyatt House. The Pavillion rooms are too small and I got fussed at by a security guard when I picked up a peanut sandwich 10 minutes early. They take peanut butter way too seriously there.
I've never heard of it but use tripadvisor.com often. It is the number 1 rated place to stay in Playa del Carmen according to tripadvisor so I think you are making a good choice.

re: Dining recs for solo Vegas trip?

Mon Ami Gabi is within walking distance.
I booked 3 flights to Las Vegas last week for $640 each. I waited a couple of months after I started looking to actually buy. The price never went below $640 but did go higher several times. Today that $640 ticket was at $480. You may be right.
I’m going next month and booked at the Drury Downtown for less than anything else.
He’s the richest man in the world. What’s on your resume?

I’ve been to the Omni once too. I thought it was very nice and would go back.
Central/North Arkansas maybe. I like the lakes in the Hot Springs area but also Heber Springs with Greer’s Ferry Lake and Little Red River is my favorite.
Why now? My guess is that he has one term to do anything. The U.S. is the largest consumer economy in the world. There is power in that that hasn’t been used and it should be used.
China doesn’t play by the same rules and it’s been going on for decades. Trump haters blame it on Trump but he’s the only president who seriously tries to fix it.
He did put tariffs on China in 2018. Soon after that he worked out a trade deal with China that had a lot of promise. Biden didn’t enforce the deal.
The U.S. has the largest consumer spending in the world. We are still a very important market. Therefore I think that the tariffs will bring about some more favorable trade deals for the U.S. I don’t think trade deficits will end though. We are shipping out low value commodities which other countries are using to produce high value end products back to us.
Tom Brady got similar assessments but he ended up doing ok.

re: Does Epic Ski passes have sales?

I get emails from Epic Pass saying that buying early gets you the best price. I’ve never bought one so I only know what’s advertised.
Greenville is worth at least one trip. I see people from Monroe at the Greenville Does pretty often.
London is very large and spread out. There are a lot of very nice areas with nice hotels. We were there last year and stayed in the Mayfair area at a VRBO. I would look in Mayfair and Soho first for hotels then branch out if nothing suits you there. Two things we did that I really enjoyed were to visit the Notting Hill area, the Chelsea area and the Borough Market area around the Tower Bridge. We also went to the theatre district and saw a play. Elton John was playing his shows at the O2 and that is worth going to if anyone is playing there you like.
