  1. I had a different experience - I just bought a 2022 Outback from Subaru Georgetown for MSRP a couple weeks ago after Austin quoted me a markup of several thousand dollars. - they would have let me factory order a 2023 (also for MSRP) if I wanted.
  2. I went too - my first time seeing either of them and first time going to this venue. Great show! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. this is his third…he was on twice with the Rams. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I should rephrase to say discussion. We went to Bellagio yesterday and posted up at Enoteca Cava Turacciolo for a couple hours before the festivities. Didn’t have a lot of time, so I think we will go back on Monday (our last day of the trip) to explore more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Yeah…I understand new vs old argument - this is my first time in Italy and I wanted to do it all - I’ve had the best of both worlds and am extremely happy with all my food choices.

  6. Added one more thing - did a 29km e-bike tour this morning where we crossed over into Switzerland (second pic is the border crossing/gate you just ride around). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Going to a wedding in Como that goes from tomorrow-Sunday so this is probably the last of “my” itinerary (the wedding itinerary is as ridiculously great as the rest of our trip has been, so not complaining)… checked out Kitchen (that is the actual name)…did the tasting menu/wine pairing and would highly recommend.

  8. We made a quick pit stop at the Enzo Ferrari museum this morning before hopping on our train to Como - a great way to spend an hour or so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Tonight we went down the road to Antica Moka, where a 75-year-old woman made us a fucking badass five course meal. Oh yeah, and then we got back to Casa Maria Luigia to find Massimo chilling outside in between Frascencana courses, so I got to chat with him for a few minutes. I never want to leave this place (I am leaving for Como tomorrow). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Some pics of Casa Maria Luigia - the highlight is the “playground” - Massimo’s collection of Ferraris and Ducatis (there are even more than the ones I posted below). This place is well worth splurging on! We have one more day here so will be taking advantage of the well-stocked kitchen and pool for most of the morning and afternoon.

  11. So this fucking ruled - I am staying at Massimo Bottura’s B&B in Modena and did their Osteria Francescana dinner tonight (photos of the property to come later) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Roberto knows how to make a fine meal in Bologna. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. It was hot as balls in Verona today and not particularly enjoyable to walk around, but we stumbled into a Michelin Star restaurant (Ponte Pietra) and had some good eats just before checking out Castelvecchio, so that part was fun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I climbed the Asinelli Tower in Bologna to get a nice view of the city shortly before sunset tonight Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. So it looks like if the new federal legislation passes as is, Tesla, GM, Toyota, etc. would be eligible for buyer tax credits again (though I think Tesla will have to lower the cost on most of their vehicles to meet the price requirements in the framework) while cars that are built overseas will not be eligible. It will be interesting to see if/how it affects the EV market in America.
  16. Headed up there on Friday for 10 days! Bologna (with day trip to Verona) - Modena - Como.
  17. Yeah, I almost spit my drink out reading those parts. Unless they have been spending the summer with Steph Curry, this happening can't lead to good things.
  18. A solid 2.5/5…it passed the time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Did the Via Ferrata at Mt. Norquay today - basically mountain climbing for dummies with cables/carabiners. I would highly recommend it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Did the entire Icefields Parkway Drive (with the Gypsy app for the win) today and explored Jasper for a bit after. Spectacular! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Some trip highlights from the first couple days - great weather at Lake Louise and Moraine Lake today. It wasn’t super crowded, but I was thankful we took the Roam public transit from Banff to Lake Louise and connector shuttles to Moraine so we didn’t have to worry about parking. Canoeing line was short when it opened and there was no wait to eat at the Fairmont Lakeview Lounge. The last photo is what appeared as soon as i sat down for lunch at Sky Bistro (Banff Gondola restaurant that was surprisingly good) on Monday. I’m using the Gypsy app and doing the Icefields Parkway tomorrow, or at least as much as I can get done in a day trip. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. After numerous flight cancellations or delays, finally made it to the Fairmont Banff Springs last night - not a bad view to wake up to today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. There was some (but not a ton) of north/south club, plenty in east/west reserved. No establishment club left, and maybe half of the loge boxes were taken.
