Hiked about 5 miles at Craters of the moon national park near Arco Idaho.
This is unlike anything I've ever seen. Lava tubes, splatter cones, craters and all. Just shy of 6,000 ft in elevation.

Congrats Charles. Our 10th anniversary is coming up July 2nd.

Yesterday we stopped at the little bighorn battlefield. We showed up an hour before closing so had to see what we could pretty quick. It was pretty amazing.

Jon, they come north and buy them from auctions and then they will basically convoy back south across the border.  I saw that crap all the time on I25 and I35/44.

Yes sir, all of the seed crops were planted around april 20th (2 weeks before last frost), and all of the tomatoes and peppers were put in i think 2nd week of may.

I already have jalapeños, bells and new mex peppers on the plant. Of the 24 tomatoe plants we started, all 24 made it and got planted.  Within 2 weeks i am thinking we should have our first tomatoes ready for picking.

You guys are killing me! Just had 2 bags of popcorn and some key lime pie. Woohoo!

So, finally got a delivery appointment for the 2 AC units, after 2 months. Only one showed up, after I rented the skyjack for this 3 day weekend (not cheap). Urrr

At least it's the one I needed most.
Other one is showing up Tuesday now.

Sounds like me. Ordered a new blower motor for our furnace, supposed to be here today… now showing up Tuesday. Ugh.

Not quite as expensive as renting a skyjack tho.

Made some homemade ice cream with Georgia peaches. 
 

Also made carne guisada yesterday. Awesome breakfast tacos



Great way to end the day after splitting a d stacking wood for about 5 hours.  Good  that I won’t need any more wood for the next year or two

I’d like that a lot.  We could refuse service to anyone like liberals and we’d welcome open or concealed carry and take care of veterans.

There is a place in Crockett Texas kinda like what I would envision Nate and I running.  Political stickers and paraphernalia from 40 years and good people and great food.

Had a party on the river yesterday. Over 40 kayakers and a few canoes. Probably consumed too many adult beverages. The water is about 3 ft deep max. Except for a few holes.
