Picture taking might be an issue, I'm not thinking of packing my big camera, although I probably should. No baggage allowance, all carry on so 1 small bag only and a personal item. I need my cpap machine, wife needs her purse. I have an old small one that is iffy at best then there's the cell phone I bought last year but it takes crappy shots......BUT.....you're not the first to say that I should take pics. I'll have to think on it, we will have a car so...ya. I might have to take it.

Phone pics are fine. Don’t go to any trouble. I’ve never been but thought the wife might like to live vicariously through your trip. Lol

I'm trying to figure out what hotel I want down in Laughlin. I even booked Harrah's last night but after booking I noticed I only booked 1 night. You'd think that should be an easy fix. I called and spoke to reception, they looked up my reservation and after about 5 min came back and said unfortunately the room rate has gone up so instead of the $77/ night I'd booked at it will be $85 for night 2....say what it was 5 minutes ago? she says hold sir, 5 min later... shes says your welcome to cancel at no charge for the night you booked. I said I just want the room posted on your web site in front of my eyes that says its 77 for Monday and 77 for Tuesday. You are welcome too book on line sir.......Okay fk it cancel it all can you do that..... Hold on sir....5 min later...we've cancelled your reservation...sir thanks for considering Harrah's for your stay.....WTF.....lol.....Aquarius here we come....maybe...lol

I mean it was only $8 more dollars but Harrah's is out

I get pissed off with shit like that too. Canceled more that a few things because of it. Some with later regrets.

Hope it works out. Sounds like a good time.

Hey, Since my crop failure I can't stop thinking of our trip so bare with me. Car rentals are a scam, I've been looking at companies at the airport and what they have to offer. Today Sixty kept linking me to Sixty . ca $54, Cdn /day, smallest compact...When I get to the Sixt . com site I get $22 Usd over same time frame. If I book ahead for our dates the daily rate is $44 Usd if I book for tomorrow its $22 Usd.

If you saw my post to Bandit you can see I can get a hot looking Mustang for $25 tomorrow but $92 if I book in advance. Alamo did that the last time we went down and I got a convert Mustang for about $150/week that started at $300 for a compact booking in advance.

If I can get a Mustang...standard too...lol...(I'm giddy thinking on it) for $100 over 4 days then wtf that's cheaper than taking a cab everywhere. Its 1.5 hrs down a long straight flat highway to Laughlin, Cruising speeds should be around 80- 90mph. They were the last time, Much better to do in a newer Mustang than a newer compact.It just means I have to be sober coming off the plane after a long days travel. Tricky but not impossible. Drinking seems to make flying shorter.

And then there were two…

All have shown their sex now. Unfortunately one more was male. So we have two females remaining.


And the remaining ladies.

Busy day, out all morning picking up stuff and returning an Amazon purchase. Got 75% of what I wanted. The 12-28x1” bolts should be in by Tuesday.

Still need to get Xtreme Azos and Mykos. But I’m looking to make my own Azos using Stonemasons jms method. I’ll just keep a tote of forest soil in the basement or garage for when I need it. Make spray or use the soil directly once it’s ready.

Wow that Azos ain't cheap. I use the Myco's but I just amazoned Azos and ouch. It must be tiny robots that massage and tickle the roots so they get all excited and grow. Tiny robots ain't cheap

My store had both cheaper than online but now she said they are OOS. Online says otherwise but whatever. They stopped advertising the Azos, no stock anywhere and issues. So not sure if they will get it back but I’ll try Stonemasons version. Just means a dog walk in the woods an hour away. Willow will enjoy it.

Still using your acid/ph down trick for the soft pots. Love it. Saves me a few days of on/off washing and hot water. Major time saver and does a better job!

The Photontek cable finally came it. Up to $25 out the door but I e got it now!

Hooking it up when we clean the tent this weekend. Son wanted to wait until the cable came in so it’s a one and done job.

I was just surfing shit to do in Laughlin other than gamble, Jet ski rentals on the river sounds like fun....until I check out the price.....Usd, gambling cheaper...lol...$$$$
