mid year! Yesterday I did a hike with friends. I brought my weighted hunt pack. The trail is called Sea to Sky. We did a portion. 10 ugly miles. Climbed 1870 feet. Man I feel it. Today, jumped on my bike just to loosen up sore joints. My ride was sloooow. But great. On a side note. My...

man. I?ve been trending towards smaller folding knives. I even started gutting a few animals with folders. They need not be huge. I also wanted something less well known. Off the beaten path so to speak. Thin slicy blades, less than 3? long. I found one that ticks all my buttons (for now...

Biblical rains in my area. I?ve been in San Diego all week for work. Worried sick for my wife. All?s well.  But my area took a beating again. First we had a drought so the place burned to a crisp. Now, ? oh you want some rain??  Kaplush!  The heavens opened.

i admit.  the luster of bowhunting tarnished for me.  couple of reason. 1. swapping over to a left hand bow.  granted my left eye is awesome compared to my janky right eye.2. my mtn-bike crash last summer really hurt me badly.  my shoulders and elbows ache constantly.  PT lady said i need to...

at the risk of starting an all out word battle :) you're at the butcher;  what cut of steak do you ask for? me?  i just like the NY-strip.  it is more challenging to cook than the Ribeye, but i feel it has more of a beefy flavor..and less fat. but the fat of a ribeye isnt a bad thing.  what...

i crashed and hit the ground hard. This was Tuesday. I?m embarrassed to report several riders went past me, while I was bleeding and laying on the ground. They didn?t care to be bothered. One guy did stop, and he helped me up, checked my bike. I coasted most of the way downhill. I did have...
