    Sauna recommendations

    I’ve used traditional and IR saunas. For Christmas, my wife bought a 1 persona portable steam sauna from Costco. It worked great and I loved it. It wouldn’t get as hot as traditional steam saunas, but I would separate profusely due to the high humidity. I decided I wanted a bigger, more...

    Hilton Magic

    Wow, it was awesome watching that. I was at that meet and hadn’t seen this since I was there was a student. I’ve been to hundreds of events at Hilton, nearly all of them basketball games, but this ranks right up there with the most exciting events I’ve attended.

    2026 concerts

    I saw Paul McCartney for the 3rd time last night. He was every bit as good as he was in 2005 and 1990. I had seats that were listed as obstructed view directly to the side of the stage. The seats were awesome and had no viewing issues. Paul and the band walked right below us to and from the...

    Aer Lingus Classic items. Tickets, planning, etc.

    Depending on the tickets you bought, you may be able to cancel and use the credit to purchase cheaper tickets. You would then have credit for future flights as well.

    Upside Gas App

    I’ve used Upside for a while and have over $100 in 8t. There are some restaurants that take it for 5, 7% off. I also use Gas Buddy to find the best gas prices. You can use both on the same fill up.

    Tenderloin on highway 34

    3 C’s might be the best tenderloin I’ve ever had. I’ve now eaten there 5 times and it’s always been great. There’s actually another place in Corning called Primrose and it also has an excellent pork tenderloin but all of the other food is also great.

    CSN&Y To Release "New" Live Album

    Those concerts were late HS, early ISU for me and I saw the highlighted ones. Also, I saw Graham Nash in Des Moines just a few weeks ago at Hoyt Sherman, and it was a very good conv

    Iowa State Themed Kicks

    I have these Hey Dudes - super comfy but they are a little dark - more like Gopher maroon than Cardinal.

    2024 Iowa's Best Burger announced

    I’ve been to JJ’s 4 times in the 5 months they’ve been open. On our first visit, the owners came up to us just to check and converse. I did have a burger the first time and it was awesome. But they have much more than just their burgers. I would classify it as an upscale bar and grill. It’s...

    New Orleans

    Someone else mentioned Commander’s Palace in the Garden District. Ate there while attending a conference last year. It was an all-time top 5 dining experience for us. Great food and service. Reservation (a ways out) are normally required. Any other advice I have has been covered in other posts.

    Washington DC Family Vaca

    Consider getting a VRBO/Airbnb instead of a hotel. You can likely get one for considerably less than a hotel.
