Any of y'all been to Costa Rica? Going with my girlfriend next week. Flying into Liberia on Southwest, got a great deal on flights - so easy to go to the Caribbean and Central America from Texas. We're staying near Tamarindo in an Air BnB. Got a whole house to ourselves for a week with a washer and dryer and full kitchen - only $500 for a week! I think we spent less than $1000 on the whole lodging and flights. We're renting a car for the week for about $350 though, and that's expensive because of the insurance they make you buy with it. Going on some excursions and catamaran cruises and etc. Anyone been out here? Seems amazing from everything I've researched!

You will have a blast! Been a few years, and we stayed up in the "mountains" and the roads were pretty sketchy getting up there, but it was incredibly relaxing and serene. We were closer to the east coast and, much like other Latin American countries, there are the nuances, customs and cultural differences from one geographic area to the next.

Tamarindo is one of the best surfing spots in Central/Latin America with a very consistent break- you should take advantage of that.

Heading home today, great trip! Highly recommend Costa Rica. 

You’re so right about the roads being sketchy! We did some exploring to an adventure park and to some of the beaches around Las Catalinas. Luckily we had a little Daihatsu 4x4 that handled driving on dirt, rocks, sand, rivers...it was an adventure driving on those back roads, but I’m excited to get home just so I can drive on paved roads again!

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
