2 days is a good amount of time for Sedona. If you're doing any of the excursions (jeep/helicopter/ect) leaves a day for that and a day for hiking. Otherwise hiking in the morning and explore uptown after the hikes both days and you'll see most of the town.
Thanks for the report. In Phoenix now and we'll be in Sedona for 2 days later this week.
Well that would be the way to meet some brewers for sure.
I'm going to Duck for a week at the end of Summer, so might have to check one of them out. I went to the Brewing Station about 3-4 years ago but it was for a friends bachelor party so we were probably more concerned with quantity than quality.
They can lose now. I wasn't rootin' for them, like UVA I never do, but it was, after all aTm and, you know, fuck 'em.
Lotta pop, lotta sizzle, but in the end...fizzle. Oh well, I did enjoy most of the season.
Breweries are lost on me, i lost a lot of interest in beers during the IPA phase that produced a lot of swill, but now I don't drink in front of my daughter's due to issues in their past life.
No, at least two are just acquaintances and one is his mortal enemy/s
Ah, ok. So they'll be in our way, too. We're in a 17 foot Ford E-150.
We'll be pretty inconspicuous in something similar this guy.
lol - I wouldn't say every brewer, just most
But, I'm in the local homebrew club, that's where the Whalehead brewer got his start. Been friends with the Brewing Station brewer for a number of years, since our kids were in kindergarten together I guess
Just confirming here: You moved to the beach and became friends with every brewer in the area?
Livin the dream my friend
I'm fairly certain they do allow strollers (unless things have changed), pretty sure I took my now 11 year old there back when he was stroller bound.
If you go to Manteo (Roanoke Island is where the aquarium is located), check out the Elizabethan Gardens, pretty walk around through there, the do the Lost Colony play there too, I think you have to get tickets ahead of time.
Of course there are the lighthouses too. If you're staying in Kitty Hawk, Bodie Island Lighthouse is about 30 minutes south, and the Currituck Beach Lighthouse is about 40 minutes north in Corolla - could go see the wild horses or the Whalehead Club up there. Another buddy of mine is the brewer at Whalehead Brewery in Corolla, they make some good stuff too
Those things suck generally. And don't have a ladder on the back if you want to hook up a portable dish for TV. The AC actually working is hit or miss too.
Winning in sports at Liberty is more important than Ebidta. they will win a natty before VT will.
Meanwhile..... Liberty knocked off the #1 overall seed at Texas A&M to advance to the super regional
The "Cruise America" rental RV's were everywhere on that road. Mosty the 19' and 21' ones. You could tell them right away from the banner on the cab overhang.
Our main draw is getting out of our house and taking our daughters on a proper vacation. But things were limited with a baby as we didn't want to fly.
My daughter's love go karts so I'm sure we'll do that.
I like aquariums, I will have to check to see if they allow strollers because Baltimore doesn't and I'm not walking an 8 month old around (wife would probably just stay at house with her).
Thanks for all the good ideas
I don't mind tight/target golf... I live in AZ... but that particular course is just not fun to play.
I'm not a golfer - I would love to find the time to pick it up...but those courses like that one, and Seascape in Kitty Hawk would scare the shit out of me with houses lining the holes. 10 out of 10 chance I would shatter a window or hit some kid in their backyard right on the noggin
Track coaching Legend retired, might take a session or two to adjust
We have never won a team title in any sport. Why? unlucky? nah... in the olympic sports you need to invest in top notch coaches- that's really all you need. UVA wins natty's regularly. Because they have top notch olympic coaches. If VT was serious about competing in -insert sport here- They would hire one of Michigan, Stanford, Florida, UVA's coaches - they win them all the time. It's all about investment. We don't invest in olympic sports.
What's keeping us from being in contention? Coaches, athletes, training, luck?? Just curious as I had thought we had a pretty strong track program, but really don't know much outside of updates here.
Also curious - are indoor and outdoor track coached by the same staffs? I assume the athletes interchange between both as applicable.
Me too but back in the 80s when you were not restricted on happy hour rules and they had 2 for 1 kamikazes from 11pm to 1 am Fridays and Saturdays.
