My Mother, simultaneously impresses and gives me nightmares.
She mentioned this "hedge trimmer" A few months ago and couldn't get it to turn on.
Turns out she didn't have the finger strength to push the safety switch. Good thing, it spins at well over any sane chainsaw speed and has minimal guards. But the thing does cut rather aggressively. Might have to make it disappear to the camper for firewood detail and mom's finger retention..

 

Is there a fire I don't know about? The hills looked particularly hazy this evening

 

Interlaken Fire? https://inciweb.wildfire.gov/incident-information/copsf-interlaken-fire

Edit: Where you are, maybe the Magic Feather Prescribed Burn: https://inciweb.wildfire.gov/incident-information/coarf-magic-feather-prescribed-burn

Or maybe just dust from the wind.

 

Dude is all in on this truck!!!

 

I see he went with the "business in the front, party in the back" look.

 

But king sooper meat....bleh

I won't say no to any ribeye at 5.99 I suppose. Remember when they would be 4.77 for the big holidays?! Those were the days.

 

Where do you source your cows sir?

 

Update. 100% magic Feather fire. Im in foco.

 

Buy whole, save money

 

Shit isn't it a couple grand for a whole cow?

 

We bought beef from back in SoDak at the beginning of this year because I suck at elk hunting

 

Find some friends to split it with, then less mooooolah

 

This. I have a few times gone in with a buddy and bought a half cow. Less moolah, more moo.

This is where I used to go when I lived in FoCo. They have the option of buying a quarter or half beef or a full or half pork. I never did that. Just stopped in when I needed something.

 

I buy from the neighbor. That way I get to watch my steak grow up all year. #13 was delicious

 

I grew up on beef, pork and lamb that we raised. It used to freak our town friends out when we’d ask our parents at dinner if we were eating “Little T” or whatever my brother and I named them.

 

I usually buy from Costco. My wife doesn't eat much meat at all so even splitting a share would be more than I need to eat myself.

 

How we feeling about wheelin tomorrow? Forecast shows ~60% chance of precip around noon for Pickle Gulch. I suspect anything in the vicinity will have a similar forecast.

 

I think I just recently paid ~1300 for a half. Certainly there is the initial investment of the freezer space. I buy beef / pork in bulk from Deer Trail. They even started delivering to southeast Aurora which is an added bonus. Leaves chicken from Costco. I'd love to be able to purchase that in bulk as well but haven't solved that one yet.
