    I've got my jetting squared at 80 and was slightly lean at my old place which was 1450ft elev . at my new place I'm at 3245ft elev so I'm going to drive around a little and then do a plug check . I'm thinking I'll be close as right now it's hot summer temps might step down 1-2 sizes in the fall

    I'll have to recalculate the DA and corrected altitude with my weather station to get jetting set up

    Rob , it feels cooler like mid /high 90's because of the desert thermal winds . winds are maybe 5-10mph coming from the east

    Get use to the breezes. Also look at the way the trees and larger brush natially lean and that'll tell which way they come from most. In El Centro most had a natural lean to the east. I see most of these lean to the north.

    Those are called micro bursts. We have them decimate ez-ups and tents on a regular basis. I've also seen the result after one derailed a bunch of rail cars on a train. Catching those bigger ones during monsoon season and they'll dump a lot of rain in a short amount of time.

    Finally having a sit. Busted ass and cut and hauled cedar to make room for horse barn. Babysitting burn pile now. Burned an old pile when it started raining however most of it fizzled out before it got here. Can't burn the green stuff yet. Had To Drag Some Cedars With truck. They're branches but 18" diameter.

    Umm it is 9 years old and I take care of my toys lol but you are right it is not used much notice the very dark looking cast iron ..I usually use that on the fire grate of a pit or my stand . Just did not feel like starting a fire this am. I don't lay out the feasts @Cold Iron does on his camping trips lol not real sure I am in the ball park with his camp cooking skills ;)
