    I live in a High Risk Fire Zone (92131) Neighborhood had to evacuate twice 20 years ago. I stayed to protect my property, lot's of dirt bags cruising around looking for opportunities to loot.
    That's when I decided to arm myself. No police anywhere...

    Wow, what a day in the hanger. Waiting for the pic.

    Really sad. Is this fire in the George Washington National Forest? One of the best places on the east coast to go hiking and camping.

    Good morning. Cold temps in the morning to pretty warm in the afternoon. Going to cook a chicken hot and fast for dinner tonight.

    WOW! Missed 1 day and suddenly behind 2 days here!
    Great day yesterday outside here! Beautiful so I got a lot of trimming done just in time for the garbage man to pick it all up. Perfect timing!
    Kettlebell day today, then a bit more outside work. Need to get another few rows of beets, spinach, arugula and kale in. Looking like an early spring, so I want to stay ahead of it all.

    Calirado is becoming a commie state due to all those leaving Newsomeland and bringing their bad politics here. Use to be a great place to live and raise kids. Nothing but crazies now it seems. Only wish I could leave. Sad sad times.

    Oh well, have to make the most of what time I have left. Get outside and enjoy the sun!

    I've never had much of a problem living around people regardless of their ideas... as long as they don't insist on talking politics or religion.

    I remember a time when it was considered impolite to talk either outside of a home. A better world back then...

    I had a voting rights class in 11th grade, the teacher stated that we often hear you shouldn't talk religion or politics but that comes from people who are either trying to control people's opinions on those subjects or can't discuss them rationally with out their opinion being dominate. That's not the purpose of this class. It ended up being one over the best classes I took to get my credits in social studies. He went on to say that sometime in your life 1or both subjects could be a driving force for your happiness. It has always stuck with me and try reserve my opinion to to the environment I'm in. This is not the format.

    Nice Sporty! I am not a Harley guy myself, but I do like the looks of a lot of their bikes. Never been a fan of spokes either, but they look great on your setup, I really like how it looks, bars look good to.

    Hope the weather clears and you get to riding. One of the benefits of being down here, you don’t need to winterize and store your bike or wait for riding season.

    Have a great Friday everyone.

    Time to move the dusting of snow we got overnight
    . They have down graded some of the expectations of the snow for Sunday to 6" +, from 12"+. Looks like the heavy stuff is happening south of us.

    One of the things you learn in critical thinking is that no extremists are critical thinkers. Doesn't matter what kind of organization or cult or ideology it is. Once people devolve into the point that they are using tests of faith that prevent them from considering other views they have lost the ability to be rational. Critical thinkers practice active open-mindedness... which is the opposite of what people do today.
