If you’re near UNO go to Dundee and hit either Pitch or Darios OR to Blackstone District and hit anything there. Don’t know Brunch spots in Benson but go to Krug Park.

Yep, RDM.  Bend is fantastic.  Can’t wait to go back.

So how much does it suck to travel with babies? It looks awful from afar. Popping this cherry next week on our way to Marco.

It’s super easy. Ours always slept the whole way. Get them their own ticket and put them in their car seat is the key. Almost all baby meltdowns on planes are from lap baby’s or a baby who had ears that couldn’t adjust to the pressure changes in my experience. Ours always went right to sleep or just hung out like they were in the car. We have a car seat we bought specifically for air travel that has only been used for that. It was a cheapo that got great reviews on travel sites for being light and easy to install. If you are in Omaha by chance prior to the flight I’ll give it to you as we no longer need it.

I have expiring miles on AA. I didn't realize I'd been flying SWA as much as I have. Need to give a little love to AA next trip.

I‘m going to need to stockpile a lot more points after this. Where are you off to?

What's the ratio of card sign up points vs earned points you typically have? I feel like I don't spend enough money to get much beyond the occasional sign up bonus.

I’d say like 70/30 earned/sign up. I travel a lot for work and we pay for everything except our mortgage on a cc. And we have several dozen children so that is a lot of spending.

Sounds like delta sky pesos.

AAdvantage is weirder, but works better if you're flexible with travel dates.

I moved my bills to Ink Biz this fall. Filling the points bucket quickly. Car and house payments are the only bills not on the CC. I certainly wish I could use my own CC for biz travel. Damn mandatory corp card!
