My used GoPro came with a remote

Now I can start and stop both Jeep camera views at the same time with one button.  It should be fun to play around with.

I might have sampled Julie’s roasted pecans…

…a little to close to their coming out of the oven! It kind of melted my plastic cup!

My next Jeep project…

So, you might have seen my doors don't like bouncing off rocks too much.  I'm going to try to gain some access from behind and bang it back into shape a bit. My plan is to get it functioning smoothly again, then re-paint it to keep rust away.  I'm sure you'll still see it a little bit.  It would be wrong to remove all the character from trails…

A nice walk during lunch a few days back

The pond is nice and full this time of year :)

At least we don’t take our annual report too seriously!

I mounted my doors to my camper…

I've been trying to find a way to easily carry my doors along on a trip, but be able to have them off the Jeep if I wanted.  Maybe for some of the trip, or when going between parks.  I came up with this idea to use the hinges and wondered if they would still fit on my camper.  It worked PERFECTLY! Now I have more options on a trip!  I can even use the latch part to “lock” them on.  I will use a cable lock through the window frames for extra safety and security.

Laura sent me this!

Pretty funny and about right!

VIP day at Boston Stoker :!

A nice touch.

Correcting my handwriting misspellings…

While taking sermon notes, I spelled difficult wrong by mistake and my iPad corrected it in a version of my own handwriting… Crazy AI stuff going on here…🤪

Being there early paid off!

Alton Brown showed up 25 minutes before hand and we suddenly got to meet him for a few minutes.  He signed Julie's copy of his latest book (that she was reading while we waiting in line).  We were the first ones, and got out of there before the huge line had built up, so we had time to get back home, and enjoy the evening together still.  She credits him with all her food science knowledge and being able to create all the great dishes she concocts. So he's my food hero too! Hahaha.

“You look like the kind of people that can hold a line”

If you've gonna meet your food hero, you better get there early.  We created the line.  It wasn't long before it looped all through the store, and THAT was just the group with the latter A and B…

The staff came up to Julie and said, "You look like the kind of people that can hold a line"?! "Don't let anyone past you or let them make another line, hahaha.

My lovely wife on the way to meet her food hero!

Of course, I had to pause to appreciate the architecture :)

Do YOU have a cat rectangle?!

I wonder if they'd make a good pillow? Hahaha. Pepper and Bitty enjoy a good snuggle sometimes.  

Stumbled across this graphic

It's really cool that we saw both of these from two of our favorite spots in the country❣️

2025-03-15 AOP and Coalmont Kilted Trail Guide Jeep Off-road Day 3

 Ok, you’ve reached the end of my chronicles of the offf-road trip I took with John.  We had a great time.  Here you can see the last day which started out with amazing views and precise driving. Then the day continued to get better and we ended with a wild climb back up to the parking lot.  I have to say, the Kilted Trail Guide hit it out of the park! Way to go Jeff Foley and Jackie Lee! Looking forward to next time!
