Helpful report. I stayed at Hacienda Warm Springs in 2004 with a cute blond. Loved it. Being an obsessive neat freak, I’d probably avoid any place that isn’t spotlessly clean and quiet. As soon as I know the dates for the 2019 gathering, I’ll book flights and rooms. Thanks.
Great lesson learned. @latbear4blk has certainly made his act of contrition and I’m happy to see that he’s been absolved! (My Christian Brothers indoctrination coming out)
I only use LAX for international travel. As Mike suggests, fly into PS. You’ll avoid the horrific eastbound afternoon and evening traffic on the 91. LAX is truly a grim airport.
I left after 30 Years. I lived by the beach yet I don’t miss it that much. Love living in two states without income or capital gains taxes! And one of them is on the West Coast.
I did get my ass pinched by a 20 something when I wore leather jeans on New Years Eve, haha. Unfortunately, I get hit on by younger women more than guys.
Everybody has their hands out, regardless of the merit. Fortunately, 90% of the time, the service warrants at least a 20% tip, especially if I’ve been comped on a drink!
Absurd. I have two cups every morning, sometimes with heavy whipping cream. I would only go to Starbucks if nothing else was available. Even 7-11. Their “coffee” is awful. Their lattes taste as if they were from pre-made vat. Yes, I’m a coffee snob.
