Those methods are just acceptable.

I really hate that a lot of old, but badass square bodies have stupid big ass wheels.

 

Street legal

 

Man, that new showerhead sans epa flow restrictor is the best thing Ive done to this house yet. Showering last night was akin to being pissed on, tonight was like being pressure washed.

 

I have issues.

 

Has hardly rained all summer here. Yet the weekend I decide to move all my crap down to the house its nothing but short spotty thunderstorms.

 

Spotty rains here since Friday are driving me nuts.

 

Well it’s something

 

Seems like it would have been easier to not keep pieces of the old bed...and prettier.

 

@Speedytech7 @Kwikvette Let me see what I can come up with for a fix or new part. I need to be able to get something going by Wednesday. I was supposed to leave town late Friday night. If I can't find a way to fix the plug or get a new pan, I could just plug it with a bolt and some crush washer, put the pan back on, fill it and worry about a permanent fix when I get back from CO.

 

Took a pair of Shocks I was selling to get looked over and a recharge before sending them out. Check out the buggy the guy built/working on.

It's got a ls in the back.

I almost forgot how much fun it is to pack boots. fuckers are huge.

 

I'm trying to pack for the trip. I just hate to pack. I would pay somebody to pack for me.

 

1) Procrastinate during the week by making a checklist
2) Wait till the night before.
3) Apply checklist

I had a whole pile of laundry to do first, started it at 9pm. Glad I didn't get a redeye flight.

 

Anybody need a frame? https://westslope.craigslist.org/pts/d/montrose-1997-toyota-tacoma-frame-titled/7351976810.html

(not mine)

EDIT: 5-lug frame. Are those compatible with 6-lug running gear?

 

Got the laundry under control. I sent some stuff to the cleaners to be laundered hoping they will shrink. Packing in suitcases makes me crazy because I can't see what I've packed. Going from a sauna climate to the Rockies will require some winter-like clothes for around here.

 

suitcaseS? Dang. I always overpack with just one suitcase.



Then again, I should change my socks more often.

 

To be honest, it sounds totally cliche, but dressing in layers of synthetics has served me well in basically every climate. Packs down nice too.

 

Synthetics or merino...

A good base layer, a fleece/sweater or puffy jacket and a rain shell should be plenty for Colorado in the summer. Zip-off pants are great if saving space is more important than fashion.

I've managed a long weekend of winter hiking and couch-surfing in Colorado out of just a backpack.

Forget packing... just stop in REI on the way and buy the store

 

This!

Especially true when backpacking.

I've got this stupidly thin jacket that warms you up by means of convection, and also waterproof.

Love bringing that anywhere it might rain or have a cold wind.
