    First Aid Kit

    ya the Benadryl is in my horse trailer and horse kit. I usually drink that when I run out of whiskey. I need to look at those Israeli bandages, I see a lot of guys carry those. I think the mymedic is what my wife wants for the truck kit

    Would you vote for Sheriff Joe?

    That's what I was thinking, he was doing the job most Arizonans wanted but like I said the city folks don't want feelings hurt and lawmakers have no common sense or nuts.

    Would you vote for Sheriff Joe?

    Nope, we voted him in for a ton of years and met him in Wickenburg at the parade several times and he was great for AZ but he had his run, I would personally love to see a coservative Joe type Latino get in there so at least maybe when good decisions are made on the streets they cant just attack him with the race card. I would say we are just a few election cycles away from being California JR If we don't find a way to bring electorial college type weighted system to state laws and elections then we are going to be stuck with the voting and values of the cities (PHX, Tucson)

    New truck considerations

    I had a 69 cougar that had parts made in mexico so don't think a ford now days is American made. I think its hard to go wrong with just about any vehicle these days but if I was looking for a half ton type 4 x 4 I would be looking at the tundra. Two neighbors have them and they are doing really well. We have a scion xb with 300,000 on it and I drive it daily and have been really happy with it so Toyota has something right. our 1990 Tacoma made about 400,000 and 25 years before I sold it for 75 % of what I paid. We pick up a 4 x 4 ram diesel in 2016 and now we are looking for a new one since the deals are so good right now so if you were looking for a tow rig I cant say much bad about the ram. I have a hard time buying a tundra though for the same price as a ram 2500 diesel. but I cant use a 1/2 ton much so just not for me either.

    Bed roll

    Been using Davis bed roll for years. Everything stays in it and just toss it on the ground. Same material as wall tent. Only issue is it’s warm for Az so only use it in in colder temps but I love sleeping in it. Way more affordable those cutter units are pretty slick but just not something I need.

    tempe area mechanic

    My daughter is driving a 2015 fiat500 and im looking for a trusted mechanic for some maintenance. She is on her own working through school and I want her to deal with it herself but I also don't want her to get taken either. Would love someone to work with her and help her understand whats needed and get it done. most likely brakes, oil change, tire rotation, shocks, and general 60,000 mile service. I have a trusted guy but he is way far out by me in the west. Thanks for any suggestions. FYI we have had bad experiences, dealer tried 700.00 bill when all that was wrong was it needed a gas cap. Oh and they lost her car for 4 hours !! Not a good day for them when I hit the lobby, my daughter was 19 years old and I believe that should be a crime.

    I tried to have our insurance contact them but they say they dont do that. They should.

    tempe area mechanic

    Well its killing me but she is taking care of it so far with some guidance, the car wash sent her down the road with a business card and a repair shop they use. She is on the phone with the car wash for their insurance info now. Im guessing the shop is this guys cousin and this is a regular deal maybe. She is shooting to claim his insurance and go to a shop of our choice plus rental car.

    Its a great little car for a college girl not sure whats wrong with it? Fun, economical, reliable, paid for , girly cute, easy to park. Anyway the plot thickens, the young lady had her oil changed today and went for a car wash and her car got the front end smashed. I guess the guy in front of her they let go in with small penis jacked up big tires truck and his tires stuck in the tracks and her car was pushed into his rear end. Then they backed her car out and tore the undercarriage cover off. during this the guy drove off. Guess the other maint will have to wait, thanks for the suggestions I will be checking on them after this insurance mess.

    Anyone else hate HOAs?

    We loved ours just because we followed the rules and built there new so it was easier but we used them against neighbors several times so we didn't have to talk to them in person, that was nice since a few of our neighbors bought over their head and they would have dragged values down. we turned a good profit on that place. I know they can overstep but ours was good and I am glad to be out of town now with no overwatch.

    Woods Canyon Lake

    If you go to dog town lake bring all your coolers. You can pull 15 per pot per 30 minutes. Don’t leave much longer or they will eat every bait and leave.

    OnX maps/ springs

    Your going to find most marked springs are long dry. And a large number have water only certain times of year. Having equines I always get to know water first before packing to areas and even then sure things have been dry. I agree with the above that the population and droughts have hammered the ground water as well as the astronomical mismanagement of forests to the point where water can’t get 5 feet down before being sucked dry by the trees and shrubs.

    Not Elk Pizza

    Home made pizza, I guess I could have put some game meat in here but Margarita Pizza is really hard to beat as it stands. IMG_2193.MOV

    Couple recent elk dinners

    Chicken fried elk steaks with sprouts and taters and of course sausage gravy. next is smoked elk shoulder roast with dirty rice , roasted taters , and fresh beet salad. This one I smoked low up to 132 degree over two hours then let it rest back down to about 100 degrees then I seared it off in hot pan. It was a tough chew even sliced thin but it was great on flavor.

    Woods Canyon Lake

    In every genre there’s are outliers, I have ran into hikers who are carrying other people’s trash and I have seen hiking groups leave a bunch of trash as well. About three times I have went to hit an improved toilet here in Az and found the pile to be above the seat !!!! Now that is something special, imagine the last 9 or 10 folks had to help out to get it that high. I’m not kidding at all. Back then we didn’t have cameras or I would have a photo. I’m talking a foot high out of the lid. I guess it was like a sport at that point.

    Leave No Trace

    I don’t mind getting blanketed with the trash side of my race, those dudes get some good vcr’s and car stereos.

    Leave No Trace

    Looks like pretty much normal for high use areas on weekends. There’s only a few places that we stay that have improved camp sights and they are pay by the day so we don’t see much laziness there. I would love to see everyone pack out all trash including human waste. We use a camp compost toilet almost every trip and pack it home for the garbage. Even on 2 week trips we use that method. Nothing worse than piles and holes of crap all around a beautiful camp. wilderness areas are the most hurtful to see this crap, even 6 or 7 miles deep with no roads some one decides to drop water bottles, Tim cans, plastic bags of wrappers and even dirty socks and underwear. I have seen it all. people just can’t follow the rules , I still find trail cams and tree stands in wilderness areas like people own the place. It sucks but as long as there are people there will be dumb ones who will never learn or evolve. the fire pit thing is just odd to me, have you ever seen where there’s a nice main pit and then 5 new one’s built all around it within like 15 feet???? I don’t get that one. See it a lot. I also see a lot of black trash bags left in camps for the trash company to come get it on Tuesday and Friday ???? Are people from town really that dumb???? its not that freakin hard, dang humans are really not evolving well.
