I fix sidewalks, driveway approaches, curb and gutter at work due to tree roots. I'm tearing out my dads driveway because of tree roots.

So work🤣

Hmmmm….maybe you can put in an approach for my RV access during work one day 🤣. No tree roots over there but I’m sure there’s another reason to suddenly put in an approach where there isn’t one 👍

Man this has been happening to me lately. I wash it and get it nice for the road then boom rain. Last dune trip it looked like it just crossed the country during a snowstorm. Detailed it last Thursday and it rained on it all Thursday night🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️
I forgot to respond, I couldn’t agree more! Had it sit outside Friday night and it didn’t end up too bad. But had it home Saturday night and forgot to turn my sprinklers off and trashed the side of it haha

In Spangler/Randsberg until next week then Jean/Vegas visit Grandma Axehandle then drop down to LHC.

The “egress” window was ya buy the complete frame, or good chance the window if bought separate may not fit with no refund.

Knocked out that fix and we packed up and headed out.

Man-o-man do girls ever have luggage.
Boys just a hanger spot in the closet and a drawer, girls a serious section in the 18’ garage for their stuff.

Vast baggage.
They’d pack steamer trunks if I’d be cool with it.

Our Solar w batteries if heating lasting until 1am then start the generator.
38F right now.

A gallon of gas to heat the rig with electric easier to deal with than a gallon of propane to fire the furnace each night.

If I have my way…hold the couch down and watch the stupid box and relax
If the wife and grandkids have their way, who the fuck knows🤷🏻‍♂️ but I’m sure it’s a lot of nothing I want to do 🤣
As expected I did not get my way 😆 I'm very hopeful for this weekend 🤞

Nothing exciting like some of you guys.

Already went to the Park and got some In-n-Out plus a shake. Probably hit up Home Depot tomorrow, momma wants some new plants for her flower bed. These are a yearly replacement🤣

Draining the pool, quick pressure wash and tile cleaning. Just a good cleaning for the Summer.

Finally, I’ve at least started going through shit I’ve collected or was given over the decades. I’ve got a banker’s box full of new collector series Case knifes, perhaps 75 or more collected over 30 years, many in framed cases all with certs, and another box of new 1950s and 60s stuff. I’m in town and am going to go see the folks at Estate Action Services (across the street from RDP) tomorrow about consigning it at their next auction.

I figure if I’m able to put together a box or two a month of this type of stuff and continue to consign it, I’ll be looking a lot better in terms of clearing out the things I don’t need before I retire and move to town full time later this year.

It amazes me how much crap I have collected (over the years) that is really unneeded and now, actually unwanted.

Gotta say, we attended one of their auctions a few weeks ago and it was well done. There was a significant on line presence as well.

Volleyball games tomorrow, then a fundraiser Bingo game in the evening with a Costco and Lowe’s run in between. Sunday- continue digging gate footings and maybe get rebar and electrical conduit started.

We slept with windows open.
Nice night in the desert.

Yesterday a ride to Memorial Mountain.
Passed a very active placer gold mine.
Huge operation.

How do you find out about all of these cool points of interest out and around Sapngler/Dove?
Lots of spots are kept quiet to avoid vandals.
I show others and others show us.

A great way to start is Barry’s off road adventures on Facebook.
He organizes trips. Free, and a good way to scratch the surface of locations.

Today the Pinnacles:

It’s supposed to hit 99F on Tuesday in Phoenix. Im going to chill some beers. 🌴
The birds must like the heat, they were loud this morning.

I grilled some chicken tacos over the weekend and cracked a couple Dos Equis beers that have been in my fridge since I used the last of my limes off our tree last November.

Only going to be 95 at my house tomorrow.

Replaced both torsion axles and switched from oil bath to grease hubs then went for a boat ride down to Pirates for lunch on Sunday. The weather was beautiful and we had the river to ourselves.
