Thanks to FDA, we do now LOL
I started building coils, and DIY'ing liquids pretty much right away, within the first 6 months.
Once you have your supplies, you can vape for PENNIES compared to buying pre-made coils and juice.
Glad I did make that jump to learn early on, I just did the easier stuff though, rebuilt Kanger ProTank coils, and simple juices. So, with the deeming, I have had to get, and learn how to use the better RTA's, but it's been a fairly smooth transition.
I just cling to my comfort zones, be it vaping, or computers, tablets, or phones. I don't "stay" in the stone age, I do progress, I just don't "like" it. I get tired of having to learn new technology, there's only so much room left in my brain. :laugh:

It's a pretty nice spa and it's made to order from a large spa manufacturer in the Tampa area. They sell them nationwide. It has lot's of jets, a waterfall and multi-color led lighting and one side of it, is a lay down area for a total body massage. The only difference in the spa we'll be getting is we chose a different interior finish. It's not shiny like the picture above. It's textured and more pool like. In the sun, the water is more pool like. Here's a pic of the finish (not our spa):

Oh, I LOVE your finish!! I think your textured and non-glossy finish will be MUCH more forgiving too. I think the high gloss finish shows water spots a lot worse. Pics when you get it in and all situated. :)
I'll look, but I think our spa was from FL too. It was a high end one, for the times.
It just kind of fell in our lap, we hadn't even thought about getting one, and we had no idea if we'd use it. So many get them and never use them...like the freebie we got.

My brother and SIL who live about 30 minutes south of us added a larger swim spa to their backyard this year. We use it every time we go to their house for dinner. I find I enjoy it a lot, so I know we'll get a lot of use out of ours. Plus now when they come up to our house, they can get in ours.

I have one that loves to be all cute and lay on her back just tempting us to try to give her a belly rub, it's a trap!

It may be a trap, but to me a wonderful one! I'll rub her little belly all she wants. Yes I will!

Yah NO! I'd throw up if'n I saw myself in a speedo. I can only imagine what it would do to others! Maybe after a year on the elliptical. Yes, maybe!

I meant for myself ... final details of the road trip are still being sorted out :blink:

So here's something I would never be excited to say I bought this weekend if I was still a smoker. But I'm not a smoker and yes, I am VERY excited!

One of the many reasons we wanted to sell our condo and buy a place with more space is that I really wanted to be able to get on a gym quality elliptical, without having to go to the gym and for the elliptical to be in a room all by itself. The new house gives is this opportunity and after checking out many machines, this one from Octane, while way more money that I thought we'd have to spend, felt so ergonomically correct that I know I will use this a LOT!

And after a workout, I'll then be able to go get in what we bought for the backyard last weekend:

Hope you're all having a great weekend! Lord knows we've been out single-handedly, supporting the economy.
Thats Great RB... Although, I've always wanted to order a RedHeaded one!!! (If you don't like her, maybe PIF her to Me)

LOLz

Cool thing is that I am seeing more and more vapers outside my office but I work right downtown.

I did run into a nice goth girl last week who was smoking while I vaped. We started chatting and it turned out she was smoking only because she was out of juice and couldn't afford more. She has a few good mods, but working retail in a retail store in the PATH (Toronto underground shops) doesn't pay a lot. I have 6-7 full/almost full bottles of juice that I am dropping off with her next week. She is ecstatic and I would have thrown out the juice anyways.
Get Those Digits!!!

I ALWAYS love reading about the generosity of vapers. I was a generous smoker [i.e., when a smoker was in need of a smoke, I never hesitated to give them one or two or three or the entire pack) and as a vaper I have continued that. I've given away a lot of equipment, juice, coils, atty's over the years. Good on you Brent for helping that girl out!
No Extras... Only twenty to a pack.

She can afford a pack of smokes IN CANADA but not a bottle of juice? Your government already taxing the heck out of that too?

A good pack is about $10US a pack but there are budget brands for $6-7 and Indian reserve ones are about $3/pack. Unless you smoke DuMaurier, Players, etc., smokes can be pretty cheap in Canada still.
