It’s been too hot later in the year to find them the past couple season. This year they pushed my season back a couple weeks so I should find some this year.

Rationally I know they're there to be drunk. There is no point the bottles just sitting there.
I also know if I drink them they will no longer be there, they will be gone for good.
Admittedly, I've never regretted opening a bottle.
It is a wonderful dilemma to have.
Me too. I used to collect vintage ports. A few years ago I said screw it, it's time, and started enjoying. Opened a 1994 for my Birthday a couple weeks ago. I'm down to about my last 5.

Now once you install the filter, it'll be bendier than little Gretel.
You need some bamboo skewers for cross bracing and perimeter patrol.

Was supposed to fly out to Kelowna yesterday and flight was cancelled due to the airspace being closed to passenger planes to save runway space for fire fighting aircraft. Airline rebooked me on a flight for Monday and my flight back is still scheduled for Sunday. So now my itinerary is YLW-YYC, YYC-YLW... and when I reached out to customer support they saw no issue with this plan. Facepalm.

Very glad you thought to clarify. This is such a common mistake, I can't help but wonder why the manufacturer doesn't update their nomenclature.

this is great news! it means the airlines have figured out time travel, but are holding it hostage over their profits!

After 5 hours in queue for a digital chat agent, and still place # 40 on hold on my phone (since 9am MST), I have been fully refunded with no cancellation fees/charges. The whole round trip was C$200ish and for me to "self-service" cancel it, they wanted $250 in cancellation fees... ah budget airlines. I would've taken a credit had they allowed me to cancel myself online, but a full refund to my credit card is definitely better.

If only there was a place where one could search for information on anything imaginable. What an amazing thing that would be.
