And don’t bother apologizing for the truth
Drove 6 hours north from Beverly Hills to Monterey. Beautiful drive up the 101. CA traffic isnt bad, its just that CA drivers cant drive and the state doesn’t make it easy. It would be 70, then 30, then 70 then 30. I finally figured out as you go through a small town there is very little runway for the entrance ramp for people to get up to speed, pace traffic and merge, which causes a back up.
CA is a crazy state. Started out at 75 in Beverly Hills, went through several climates that ranged from 101 to 72 and back again several times as you get into the hills and coastline.
Monterey is nice, 61 currently and sitting on the patio to the room smoking a nice cigar. Hope the smoke police don’t crash the front door.
The juxtaposition of the dry and lush areas is amazing. in the valleys, the agriculture is impressive and the soil is so rich looking.

Thanks all.
So far I’ve learned there seems to be a lot of hypocrisy in LA
They allow tent cities along the sidewalks but red tagged and evicted all the tenants in a make shift RV park behind someone’s home.
And it’s certainly a have/have not town. But I guess that’s everywhere nowadays

That's solid stuff right there.
I did buy the Osprey setup at REI with the 30% off 4th of July sale, but even though I got a great fit out of it, there was no MOLLE. I tried to explain how I normally placed my knife right about here, my lensatic compass over there, and how my med kit was independent and off to my right side...
And I got glassed over eyes.
Nothing in that hippie world of REI gets anything about our military world. Sheep don't need med kits and larger knives I guess. And looking at the civie copies of the military lensatic compass, it has me wondering if any of them know how to do azimuth or back azimuth nav from points???
First time I was introduced to a Kifaru was from an army ranger teaching a combat medic course that had just got back from the sandbox. He flipped it open and showed us his med kit full of tampons, and I about bust a gut. Then I realized how important tampons are to a med kit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Porch is all framed in, half the rafters are set as of the end of the day. Should be able to get the rest set tomorrow then blocking Friday is the plan.
3’ overhang to the front or west end of building 18” on other 3 sides.
As I get older I get more creative on hanging long pieces of facia. Strategic placement of scab material help hold it in place and line up thing’s properly. Sorry no pics of that….

When Assad in Syria used chems we didn’t use tactical nukes.
The Wagner group was probably leveraging to get richer. By posturing, Privozhin was able to gain billions in payments to remain “loyal”

Good job Sam. Channeling my inner Tate.. Have an Aussie wagyu ribeye and a Japanese A-5 wagyu fillet. Going to sear in the pan with garlic cloves and rosemary using the beef tallow I rendered off the prime brisket last weekend. Finish in the oven to 125  Also making crispy smashed baby potatoes roasted in beef tallow, then tossed in a spice mix with garlic, salt, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, chili powder. Lastly is yellow and gold cherry tomatoes roasted in olive oil salt an pepper and served with chiffonade of basil. Praying Im not screwing up the steaks.  Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Don with those bags you might consider softer leafs if you aren’t going full air ride. More comfortable ride but you have the bags when things get heavy.

I’m back. To make people hungry Father’s Day lunch today with my dad and family. Went on at 16:30 off at 06:30. At 235 I thought it might take a bit longer was targeting 16 hours but it will keep in a warmed cooler. It has to rest a minimum of 4 hours so I’m only 90 minutes ahead of schedule. 17.5 Lb prime brisket. And the pan is rendered fat trimming that I’ll store and use for cooking.

I think you are being ounce wise and pound foolish. Save weight somewhere else. Get a good battery and put the second OEM one back in too. It was designed that way for a reason.
My humble opinion, sir.

Oh boy, more water features for Charles to dodge with zero turn! 
Ha, you should see me taking the zero turn across the wooden bridge i build over it. Rear tires hang off about an 1 on both sides. Zero turns arent known for being easy to keep in a very straight line either. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
