Last time was on my back porch with both your children and my son providing entertainment jumping rope while doing the Moon-Walk backward and forward...

I am definitely free around the 12th.

I PM'd you my cell. Keep in touch when you get here so that we can try to make it happen!

Made it home from Gridlife without any issues.

Ridgeline doesn't do much better on the highway mileage than my normal stop n go commute. Getting 20 daily but only 24mpg over 250 miles at 70mph. Still better than my last 3 trucks and I hauled all the same stuff.

Had a great time. Weird being sober at a music festival kinda felt like a jew on christmas but honestly the only difference was I wasn't up partying till 4-5am, didnt lose things, did a lot more work and did it well, and I woke up feeling fine. Still did stupid stuff, and still had fun at the concert stage and watching drifting when I could.

Best weather we've ever had, best crowd we've ever had, and overall best event we've ever had. Also I may take an actual w2 position next year with the company which means a lot more time on the road, but also means I'll get paid more than just expenses.

Welcome back to Monday gang.

Sounds like you had a great time danm. Well done.

Off to work Suno............

Morning Ram and X. Nothing on my dance card today except some bush trimming.

Carry on.

Good Monday Morning to All! It's a sunny 69° on the wy to 83° today.

Chores for the day are done but still need to make dinner in a couple hours.

Picked up two sleeping bags that claim a 30F rating so the boy and I are going to reattempt backyard camping again tonight.

Finally got through to Honda financial and got my account number so I could link my account online. First payment was due in 4 days so I'm glad that got taken care of.

when are you planning to visit, MACS? Hope you've got time to herf...

Happy Tuesday morning! Work then head home to build a wood planter box for a lighting project in the yard. Have a good day y'all!

Good Tuesday Morning to All! It is 69° on the way to 90° today. Range practice and coffee roasting are on the activity list today.

Howdy gang.

Safe travels Brother MACS to and from California. Youse a better man than I be.

I'm not any better, Rammie... I just enjoy driving. Usually.

Mornin' dudes. Got to get the yard work done, refill the peanuts for Mr. Squirrel, make a Costco run to fill up the gas tank and pack my stuff. Should prolly make a list so I don't forget anything...

Since I decided to take the truck I'm bringing my fishing tackle. Art has what we need, but I always prefer to use my own gear. If I lose a jig, it's mine. Ya know?

Morning folks. Not forgetting about D Day June 6th 1944.

Wifey and I have been getting tired of layabout so we decided to take a few days off and visit friends up in the mountains. Little town called Strawberry. Some nice hiking trails and cooler temps await.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to a little San Diego weather.

Mazel Tov!

My neice just graduated HS, but for some reason I still remember her as the tiny little baby I met 18 years ago.

Boys go kart broke a while ago. Ripped a jackshaft mount from the engine cradle. I figured I'd weld it and be good. Couldn't get alignment right so it's sat until I had another idea. The part is not available, but I did find one person through reddit who had a batch made and was selling them. ...for $275. F that. Coleman has the part listed for $42 but out of stock no backorder. I spent an hour cutting and welding the broken one and it's close but I fear the thin steel will tear again. So I ordered some square steel tubing and I'm going to make one myself.

6 channel amp in my truck died as I was heading to Michigan last week. Called Crutchfield and they had me redo all the troubleshooting I'd already done. They're sending out a new unit.

Took down the tent from the back yard. Grilled a chicken. Fed n watered the living chickens. Marked two trees I need to cut down. Bought 5lbs of meat to make jerky marinating one more hour before I dry it. Cleaned the inside of my truck, boutta head to the carwash to do the rest.

Got a lot done despite running on minimal crap sleep. Once the jerkys on, I'm hitting the couch for the rest of today. Back to work tomorrow.

I can't stop laughing...

I just got a notification from my kid's pre-school that her group swim lesson today was cancelled due to a "CODE BROWN" incident at the pool prior to the lesson...

They have such an official name for it.

Chocolate bhutlah jerky turned out very spicy. Expected, but cut the dose in half from the last batch that was nearly inedible. It's still hotter than I want but it's alright. Used 1tbsp of chocolate bhutlah sauce in 2lbs meat and 2c jerky marinade

The other 2lbs I used El yucateco black sauce - a smoked habanero sauce. I don't think the sauce is very hot so I put a whole bottle in with the marinade. Just put them on the racks should be done by midnight.

Have a good trip MACS. Wave when you pass through. I'll be up north getting some cool and looking for a blue fox for Drafter.

Good Wednesday Morning to All! It's 71° on the way to 92° today. Heading back to the range today.

Macs is Amish..??

Why do you hate the Amish..??

Pizza Hut while sitting In Washington Dulles. There was a time when Pizza Hut made a good pizza.

Doesn’t matter. They’ll never see this.

Sky filled with smoke in our area. Code Red issued. As I set here puffing a ceegar.
