Welcome @-AQ-KiT, enjoying playing with you!

Enjoy Stormy, looks like a great time!

Good lord no....blech...it has to have milk.

This looks legit good, Wayne. I prefer the thinner broth with my chowder. I am sure this is as delicious as it looks!

A couple of shots I took last night in the Outer Banks of NC

This is awesome Stormy, good for you brother!!

I am sure most of you have seen photos of the Aurora Borealis last night. I drug my wife out to Sky Meadows State Park to get away from all the light pollution. We froze our butts off (left our coats at home, duh) but it was totally worth it.

@tsw 8.5, @loADERJr>XI<, @Primetime and any other XI family members in the path of Milton, please be safe. Get out of dodge if you can. We're thinking of you all...

Good info. I guess I am really just in it for fun. I don't care if I win or what map we are playing. It's rare to see me on top of the leader board....ever! LOL

nope both are 60hz

It's funny you say this. I was stoked when I went from a 200mb connection to a 1GIG connection. I thought my ping would go down and my game play would get better. Well my ping didn't change, and now I just suck a lot quicker.

DC is totally fine. You just gotta deal with the people....

Haha right on Weed. I stopped buying life insurance. Don't really carry much debt. Plus the highest credit score you can get is 850...at least in the U.S. Not sure how that translates in Canadian credit LOL

Mine was 850 for a while back in 2022-2023

I have a good friend that lives in Redington Beach and pretty much lost everything last night.

I heard they taste like Chicken

Appreciate everything you have done for XI @LOCO. Does this mean I can kick you now?

As many of you know, back in February we had a house explosion about three houses down from us. The explosion killed my fellow firefighter Trevor Brown and injured 10 more of my firefighters. Two had 3rd degree burns, One had a shattered hip, another shattered leg, another crushed shoulder. All received significant trauma with regard to shrapnel wounds, concusions and ongoing pulminary problems. Fortunately most of them are on the mend. This year I became involved in a group called Patriot Cruise and Salute https://www.patriotcruise.org/ This is an annual event hosted right from our marina. Saturday I was honored to host on our boat, the widow of Fallen Firefighter Trevor Brown and her three amazing kids, along with my company fire chief and his wife. In all, the event hosted 105 honorees this year and 55 captains volunteered their time, their boat, their fuel and food to give the honorees a nice three hour ride up the Potomac River. After the boat ride, we enjoyed a great catered meal, and all honorees and volunteers received a nice challenge coin. I stuck a 360 camera on the back of "Cool Change" and created a little snippet of the first few minutes of the trip. Another boater grabbed a couple of shots of us. It was a great day and I can't wait for next year!

DJ Congrats on your journey. This is something that I think ALL of us have thought about at some point in our lives. I subsribed and am looking forward to joining you on your adventures. I hope that you will experience Alaska off the beaten path. One of my wife and I's most epic adventures, and we barely saw much of the state! Thanks for sharing your nomadic lifestyle with us!

Nice Shadow, look forward to getting fragged by him.....

Nothing like a good thick head with my stout. Just sayin'

Use both butter and Mayo. Looks great!

Great memories Wayne!

Yea this isn't likely to continue in retirement. So we are enjoying it while we can. As they say, it doesn't make any sense to be the richest guy in the cemetery.....

Tarantulas are very cool. I heard they taste like chicken?
