Colorado B.S. Thread

They're on over here. Trying to get the irrigation blown out and the swamp cooler drained, feels like it's 8:30 at night.

Will the osprey bumper fit most winches?
I think I saw a Smitty in there. Was that a 9k ?

 

The best part was when @Squeaky Penguin said "I've never been so hot in the summer". It felt pretty good Saturday!

 

It's so dark out I can barely see the tomatoes on the vines to grab and bring inside

 

How bad is it and where is it coming from? Nothing like a bird's eye view: http://mp1.met.psu.edu/~fxg1/PSUGOES_SW/loop180v.html

You can actually see the Cameron fire blow up on Saturday (recommend picking the 15 hour 180 frame option).

 

Cool visual, uncool result

 

I am up visiting Steamboat with my parents right now and we've got a new one burning up here that apparently started yesterday. Currently at 140ish acres. I had commented to my parents that yesterdays air quality was surprisingly clear, and we were lucky to have such good visibility hiking Fish Creek Falls. This morning it was so smokey in town we couldn't even see the fire burning from less an few miles away as we drove up to Steamboat Lake. Didnt even know there was a fire until later, as the wind pushed smoke out through out the day, we could see it from the park 25 miles north of town.



My dad snagged a few photos as we were driving back.

Not good.

 

Was just looking into that as I rolled back home in the new truck...

 

Thanks again man. Drive across the country went perfectly. And I did better than 17mpg every tank except one when it was windy.

 

I just insulated a tree.
I feel so stupid.

 

The had around 30k on them. it was my daily, but not anymore. So I have time to down it and replace those while getting the shocks rebuilt. Also time to go through other parts and get ready for winter.
Didn't see this till after, but the old bearings are out. Just waiting on the new ones to show up, ordered the regular Teflon replacements.

 

96,000 acres so far.

 

Hoping the wind chills the fuck out and the precip brings some relief.

 

x2.

Was just reading on inciweb the new one up here went from 150 to 3500 acres today.

 

The part number for the SS variant is: FKSSX10T

 

Hope we don't break the record twice in one year.. come on snow!
