    Are you thinking of Ski Shores perhaps? That's near Emma Long and pretty far from Enfield but Dry Creek is just past Mt Bonnell and pretty close to Enfield and the Walsh Boat Landing. I wish we made more places to go via boat on Austin and Travis.

    went on Tuesday knowing it'd be my last visit. Am surprised it soldiered on as long as it did after Sarah passed. The FAQ is her style. one of their last messages:

    much appreciated but I'm out of the country on a limited connection so I just want to stream the Craig Way audio and not the video

    Yes, met some sexton brother there in the mid 90s. Still think about it when I use the bathroom at Maiko. Also remember high flying but short lived Demi Epicurious in that building.

    Flew back from Croatia a few weeks ago in British Airways First Class. Drank as many Johnnie Blue's and Siecle champagnes as I could. Closed the door while passing out to Curb Your Enthusiam. What was the question?

    Big brother didn't need $265M to change the world with regards to covid-19: It's fitting that aggy is the vaccine factory doing important but dull work while big brother used its brain. Followers vs leaders

    just got back from spending a week there. half the time in this house: https://www.vrbo.com/324551ha 6 bedrooms each with their own bathrooms and individual a/c so we were able to keep some distance from each other (I stayed there with 2 other covid cautious people). Rented a golf cart from Prisma for $350/week Spent the rest of the time at this little condo complex in the Veracruz unit: https://www.isladreams.com/villas-san-miguel/oceanside-villa-veracruz/ great view and a very short walk to Hidalgo. Got pesos at the CIBanco but am sure the HSBC ATM is good too. Have beers at Soggy Peso and La Palapa del Capitan. Lots of great advice in this thread. If you don't mind a connection get on the AA flight serviced by a 787. Great business class seat and was only $327 on the return. Took Southwest down. JetBlue is starting flights to Cancun from Austin in March so it'll be good for Southwest to have some competition.

    AP's brilliant decision tells me how smart it is. Wanted to win a championship so he went to 0U instead of Texas. We all know what happened in '05. It's working out as it should for a traitor to Texas.

    I enjoyed Milto's during my time on the 40 acres and just passed it on my way to Via 313 last week. Should have stopped by instead of gorging myself like I was at the old nasty Gatti's buffet on MLK like a homeless person with his first meal off a plate. Where is there is a high-rise condo by there? I see a whole slew of new high rise apts on west campus but no condos. The only stuff for sale is the tired old condos from my time and ridiculously priced single family homes. I am thinking an investment property that the olds use via airbnb that I can crash at sometimes. Though they probably would want a house and tell kids to sit down as they go by on their scooters.

    And I'd stay away from SkyLux. Looks like it can work and save you a bundle but if anything goes wrong or you need to make a change then it's a PITA. There's also the chance that your ticket won't exist when you show up at the airport (they sometimes use other people's FF miles to book your ticket). Too risky. Use ExpertFlyer to help you find flights you can upgrade or have a better chance of a waitlisted upgrade going through.

    La Compagnie flies an all business class plane from Newark to Paris (ORY) or Nice (NCE) which isn't far from Monaco (I've driven this route) for only $1600 though you'll have to get to EWR (UA has non-stops from AUS) though there's a risk when you book separate tickets. I know you wanted to offset with points/miles so this may not work for you but perhaps others will find this option useful. It doesn't seem to show up on the big travel sites. We're Texas. Their 1% is our 10%. Don't fly coach. Haven't tried PE.
