    I dont do well on airplanes anymore. I get pissed when they want to search me and my stuff. When they start feeling me up I tell em there a bunch of ****. Last time I was going to Vegas (several years ago) this guy told me I couldn't carry my plastic bottle of old spice so I told him to shove it. Then I picked it up and threw is in the trash. He got pissed and I told him to stuff it. Supervisor came over and told him what I thought to. I still got on the airplane but said I would never fly again. Now it's even worse to fly with all the rules. No thanks.:cussing:

    Depends on your idea of what you want

    Condo with kitchen, pool, eachside
    regular hotel, cheap motel, fleabag guy hangout
    camping...

    If you have a few guys look into a condo to rent with
    kitchen, eat dinner and lunch there, save a ton, etc

    Well after a while you appreciate the few minutes
    to get off the ride and chill then head back out

    Lots of places to eat though, we love your money
    no income tax so please come and spend freely!
