Nothing physical. I made sure I had all the "toys" before I retired. I love to be outside on a beautiful day. All my working years when an absolutely gorgeous day would happen and I had to be at work I would bemoan the fact that I was inside instead of out there somewhere in the great...

Vietnam, 1971....Lest we forget.

If you drive across Wyoming on Interstate 80, at about mile marker 221 you'll see a huge refinery about a half mile off the freeway. The name of the exit is "Sinclair". That's a Sinclair refinery. At the exit itself is a Sinclair service station, selling gas and diesel. Some of the highest...

Most of the maintainers use SAE electrical connectors. I have several of these from Northern Tool: The SAE connector is what you see on the end of the alligator clips that come with this particular model maintainer. That SAE connector mates with the SAE connector that is attached to the...

NOT! The main idea behind having an EV is that you plug it in at home and let it charge overnight while you sleep and the demand on the grid is lower.

I have a battery maintainer on every battery I own, using connections similar to what is shown. Why? Because using these things has essentially at least doubled the life of my batteries - sometime tripled. No idea if it is the desulfation process or what that helps so much. All I know is I...

So.....you find nose rings on a pretty face attractive? Every time I see a pretty face with a nose ring I can't help but see hogs wearing nose rings to keep them from rooting around in the dirt.

Road to the Forest Service cabins in Nevada's Santa Rosa Mountains....

No idea where that $3 a gallon in 2005 comes from. I live in Nevada, traditionally gas prices are much higher here than the rest of the country because our gas comes from California. Each vehicle I own has a log book in it in which I log every fuel fillup. Just checked one of the logs - in...

As of this morning....some of you guys don't realize how well off you are. It is really painful for those of us who have to depend on California refineries.

These "guys" tried to have one of their events at one of the local elementary schools. Parents found out about it and made the school cancel the event. Now the "organization" is suing..... Just what young kids need..."glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models"!

I followed a two-track road through several miles of fall color in Nevada's Bilk Creek Mountains yesterday....wish I could have stayed there till snowfall!

Fall color tour in Nevada's mountains....

Diesel jumped 60 cents a gallon overnight here in northern Nevada.

Ruins of a long-ago ranch at the edge of a meadow in northern Nevada.

Copper Basin, in the Jarbidge Mountains of northeast Nevada last week....

Another vote for Harman pellet stoves...but mine is the P68 model. Keep them clean as per the owner's manual recommendations and they will run forever. I have 6 tons of pellets on hand - but I use only about 3 tons per season. The way things are going in this country the past year and a half...

Northern Nevada has been relatively free of smoke this summer because the California wildfires were up north, near the Oregon border so the smoke missed us. That all changed a week ago when the "Mosquito" fire took off. It is due west of Lake Tahoe so the winds are carrying the smoke directly...

Young buck antelope strolling along....

These days I whine and make a groaning noise when having to go up a hill also!
