Repeating yourself, repeating yourself...wife tells me I do that to.

got in 18 mile loop hike this weekend, left my truck with small grill, ribeyes, wine, cognac at halfway, best steak I've ever had, had to carry stuff about 1/4 mile to camp site but every bit worth it

The problem with gps is that you have to use for it to work, only pull mine out after I'm in deep doo doo.

Quote from jimmyjam: “It looks like I'm going to get lucky this spring as the wife is going on a trip for two weeks with her best friend.

Keeping up with mile would be like doing homework to me.

I thought stealing signs was just part of the game.

One's, an Idaho potato and the other's just a common tater.

I've got this thing for little girls and puppies....I can't look at one without a smile coming to my face....too bad little girls have to grow up...I still smile at puppies when they become dogs.

Quote from odd man out: “Needong to replenish my liquor cabinet for the new year. Yesterday I got him and tequila. But soon, my rye and bourbon will both run out. Need to start considering options. ” Try the Jim Beam rye, my wife's go to and I like it a bunch as well....try the Maker's Mark 46 bourbon, I do believe you'll like it.

Quote from max.patch: “only a few shopping days left to get your black eyed peas, collards, and cornbread. ham hocks highly recommended. ” What wine pairs with that meal?

tried these two, both great, the MM 46 may be the best sipping whiskey I've had, the original Glenmorangie 10 year is as good as the 12 year at about half the price...IMO.

Quote from Mountain-Mike: “It's nice to see the next generations on the trail. In the late 90's I headed up to the White's for a vacation that got postponed several times dur to storm threats hitting Nantucket & I was needed at work. I thought my hike would be pushed back again due to a hurricane but it's path turned away from the Island. I told my boss I'd see him in a few weeks. He offered to let me postpone agin since the new path of the storm had it heading towards the Whites. I took proper …

My wife upgraded to an Apple watch so I guess I'll give her old fitbit a try, she bought me one a couple of years back but I had her return because I thought I would never wear it...would like to see what it says about my sleeping habits.

Quote from Astro: “Salsa? Back in Texas that what we dipped our chips in. ” This Salsa you flip, not dip.

I took my Canyon to the bike shop to replace brake pads and found my hydraulic cable cover on the frame bottom was wasted, I bought this bike factory direct from Germany, love the bike but would not buy it again due to getting frame replacement parts, all other components are standard and can be easily had...saw a Salsa at the shop that really looked nice.
