Start with an inflatable hot tub, they actually make some relatively decent that will last a couple of years. That way when she doesn't use it you can just take it down and throw it away.
:lol:been there done that...TWICE.

no more for me. if we do this again, its going to be a 'for real' one.

damn that brings back the trauma of playing outfield on our local little league with louisiana mosquitos. i remember being out there at dusk at practice just slapping at my legs; both legs were bloody from shin to thigh from swatting them while they were in full-on blood draw and my dad gave me hell afterwards for not 'having my head in the game'. :lol: :wah:

thanks dad.

eta outfield might as well have been outer space for all the balls that made it that far :lol:

would you purchase a costco hot tub?

thinking of throwing a bone to the wife after she agreed to let me install my 10x20 shed; there is enough room to add a concerete pad or maybe i'll get crazy again and do a composite deck..perfect spot for a hot tub.

looking at the aqua terra on costco's site but man they've gone up since covid :casty: you could find 6-7 person models around $3k before now they're $4-$6k.

any thoughts on this board for any hot tub owners? this is a 'wife' perk, but guess who will be the one keeping it clean. :Banghead:
is it fricking june?

what a terrible marketing idea. this isn't going to end the way they think it will

whoa really?

i had no idea. i took advantage of that with all my kids growing up and didn't realize she rolled it out to other states. :bow:

thats awesome

my little brother is in the hall way with a blow dryer heating up the box.
:lol:

i feel like everyone who grew up poor in La has a story like this with their thermostat. our AC was a feature akin to our living room; we knew we had it, but never really took advantage of what it was offering. :lol:
quote:

I could bonk the wall next to the thermostat and make it come on. I would then get in bed with my head under the vent. Yes, that's how fricking hot my parents kept our house.
:lol: :bow:

yep. sundays after church in the summer..we'd get 10 cent hamburgers from totos then sit in the FREAKING SUN in his car with the windows down waiting for the public library to open at 2pm.

then we entered the hallowed halls of EDEN; my dad always said the library was the coldest building in town and in my 80 degree house growing up, those were the words of Soloman.

i think i read every kid book in that library. i would grab a book and go find a cold corner in one of the rooms and sit and read for 2 hours.

The problem is Iran does still have power here. As long (and for how long who knows)as they have the ability to hit even just a couple targets a week in the gulf and withstand the beating we are giving them, they have leverage. They continue to threaten oil production facilities, desalination plants, western businesses, tourist site etc..as response to us turning up the heat and they still have the capability to do so.
this is insane. we are literally blowing up every new leader they prop up within days, hours or minutes and yet they keep at it.

fall was the WORST

we were out there by 630 am with old bed sheets shoveling the never-ending deluge of oak leaves onto them and then pulling the corners and 'santa clausing' them over to the fire in the ditch which he was 'managing' as the dad.

slave labor i tell you. i still have scars.
i ditched pandora a decade ago; but it still likes to default to sonos-provided stations and amazon music.

my wife has apple music connected and i usually listen to my albums stored on my plex server since they are all lossless copies/FLAC.

i recently added mixcloud because of those great 80s dj mixes we posted awhile back.

what are some other good services (ad free preferably) that you use with sonos?
