About three or four years ago, we bought a 58" plasma HD with cash and OnePass miles.

The only times that it goes on are for game broadcasts and the occasional PPV movie.

The fare doesn't matter. They are all fixed-cost, not percentage, numbers.

When do you move? When do you start?

"Brandywine"? Are there hobbits there?

We don't have it at home yet either.

My current dilemma is wanting a new TV and paying off debt (and not acquiring more) with my bonus check that's coming soon.

There might be at this place, though we haven't noticed on our visits.

There are, however, wineries, mushrooms, gardens, lots of paintings by Andrew Wyeth, a couple of spectacular restaurants (or so I'm told), and lots of places named "DuPont."

We need to know so we can start planning a Delaware Box Mini-Do. :D

I don't know about hobbits but there used to be a lovely little harness track down there. When I was in college we went there all the time and stayed over at a motel on the highway in New Castle. The Dupont was much too high-end for us.

Thanks. I'm for the most part moved already...only thing I haven't brought from the Shore that I want to bring is my bed. Don't have a start date yet.

Some Philly-area golf should be on your menu for this summer. :-:

That was going to be my next question. I seem to be pigeonholed. (And no smart remarks from the peanut gallery.)

If this 12-day Med cruise comes to pass, WWTBD regarding redemption options? I see my options as these:

PHL/EWR-FRA/MUC-VCE -- LH F, CO BF, US New Envoy (MUC only)

BCN/MAD-EWR, BCN/MAD-FRA/MUC-PHL

Once I get on property and see what my perks are like, I will advise as to the availability of Dupont CC. But there are several other courses in this area that have been on my wishlist for much longer.
