re: Breton Island & Cell Service

Posted by SportzIQ3235 on 5/3/24 at 8:57 pm
Just to follow up, if any of you have verizon, I was able to place phone calls, send text messages, and receive emails with one or two service bars. It would have been a whole lot more fun to have been a fishing trip than a work expedition.

Breton Island & Cell Service

Posted by SportzIQ3235 on 4/22/24 at 1:47 pm
Has anyone been out fishing at Breton Island recently and noticed if they had cell service, specifically verizon? Obviously the coverage map from verizon does not specifically show Breton Island, but it's only 15 miles from Boothville as a crow flies so I am hopeful. I know I have been surprised at times fishing further south but never at Breton Island. Any feedback is appreciated.

I had such a poor experience I’m not willing to try the mustard one. Fool me once.

Slightly related, but his BBQ sauce is straight garbage. Easily the worst I have tasted from any commercial establishment. I don't know how it was greenlit.
I’d love to see an overhead shot of back where the roof rack was supposed to be, inside the trunk to see if it has my stereo, the door jamb plate to see if it was the war bonnet yellow originally. It had a few paint defects near the top of the body/rear wheel near the door handle.

I’m going look for pictures of mine, maybe I have an engine image to see if any of the aftermarket improvements line up.
Really appreciate the response.

When we had it, it was the original engine. We pulled it and rebuilt it with new gaskets and hoses after cleaning it. Added an aftermarket exhaust system to it and new headers. Last thing I did was put a custom box and CD player in the "trunk" behind the seats with a remote control. It was an impractical car by all measures but I loved it. The lines were just perfect in my opinion. I washed that thing almost daily as an 18 year old, I thought I was the sh*t.

If memory serves we sold it in 2003 and threw out the paperwork years ago. Who knows what was done in between. I like to think this was our old one, but who knows. Just wish I could know for sure.

If anyone is planning to go on Friday morning and would be willing to stop by Lot 375 (1971 Corvette) to take a few photos to send me I would be grateful. In the early 2000's, my dad and I purchased a black (not original paint color) 1971 corvette with the LT1 hood and no rack on the back to rebuild. If memory serves, the original color was war bonnet yellow. I think there is a decent chance this is the same car. I obviously don't have the old VIN handy to compare, but there are some features I would be able to recognize. I'd love to see the trim tag on the door pillar if it was coded for the original yellow paint job. So if anyone is going and would like to check it out for me, please email me at amarch3@gmail.com.

Did your insurance company send someone to document the work progress during the new roof installation? We had a guy come by about 3 times the day our roof was replaced taking pictures of everything going on.
Hell no. I despise beggars.
Best I can tell from WAFB is 3 days in a row on three different occasions. Plenty of back to back days.

Isn't that Coastal Bridge's trucks?
My parents and I took a trip to Venice, Italy while I was at LSU in 2005. While walking the streets just off the main plaza, I looked through a shop window and saw a girl I went to elementary school with. Turns out she and her family were in Venice for the day shopping before returning to Switzerland for her brothers wedding. I thought that was a pretty cool coincidence.
