My best friend growing up called last night, hadn't heard from him in a long time, we were recalling old times...one was the best beer we ever had...we'd been sitting in the hot MS sun dove hunting for hours and couldn't take it any longer, we were walking up the fence row when we met a machinist from the factory we worked at sitting in the bed of his truck under a huge osage orange tree with an igloo cooler...we loved his greeting..."you boys want a beer"...the 16 oz Schlitz was sucked dry in a…

Quote from TrafficJam: “Once I get my tarp situated, I might try a trip using my small, golite backpack. I figured tarp, sleeping bag, pad, no-cook food, water, filter, first aid, hygiene kit, 1 extra pair undies and socks.

I guess you haven't had the same experiences that I have. ” I hate to say it,…

I'm not into hot weather hiking but couldn't turn down a trip with some top notch campfire whisky sipping company, spent three days doing a loop hike in the Linville Gorge area, spent the first night at the Chimney, watched fireworks in the distance, second day we got rained on but it stopped in time to set up camp, eat, sip half our rations before the rain started again, was not bad laying back in the hammock to finish it off listening to the rain on the tarp, the rain on the tarp put me into a…

Quote from NoAngel: “Quote from CoachLou: “Quote from Drybones: “Looks like I have to get another mt bike, crank bearings are shot and teeth are worn badly or missing....I believe I've gotten my $230 worth out the old Trek and it's time to put it out to pasture. ” My 'Fishing' mtn. bike, was put together from 3 bikes out of the transfer station.

Looks like I have to get another mt bike, crank bearings are shot and teeth are worn badly or missing....I believe I've gotten my $230 worth out the old Trek and it's time to put it out to pasture.

I'm beginning to understand the significance of seat design, my buddy that did the 48 mile ride with me weighs 313 lbs and was sitting on a banana with no padding, my butt was sore and he said he could go 100 miles and would be fine, I'll try something different next time out.

Quote from sheepdog: “Saw a big bobcat run across the road yesterday. Right in the middle of the day. We have a lot of them in the area but you rarely see them. ” Cutest animal I've ever seen was a little bobcat kitten, you'd need full armor to play with it, this little kitten I have is killing me, arms and legs look like I ran through a briar patch.

Quote from Dan76: “Utah tightly controls consumer access to adult beverages. Therefore wine, liquor, and 'strong' beer are only sold in state owned beverage stores.

However with Oklahoma and a couple of states now about to allow public access to beer with a higher alcohol %, most western breweries are planning to either greatly reduce or cease production of 3.2. As Utah accounts for less than 5% of 3.2 beer sales, the market…

My sexy new bike, kinda fits my personality, I once paid an extra $100 to get the same truck without the fake mud splashes they charge extra for and wouldn't buy a Maxima until they took the pin strips off, guess I'm what you'd call a bland person...$300 for the bike, aluminum frame, disc brakes, rides well...which reminds me of a story...sister-in-law was buying a dog and was concerned about the drive home with the dog and asked if he road well...owners reply....he's sired three litters.
