    My former boss moved there recently. When he announced it there wasn't much of a reason given

    The Mrs's and I finally had our ceremony last Friday. Rainiest day of the week haha, but the weather got better just as we moved the whole thing inside. Made for a nice evening though. Childhood friend of mine custom makes rings and knives so he made mine. Black ceramic, white oak and turquoise stones. Gave him some ideas and he came up with this which I love.

    I've run both the blizzaks and Nokians. All my vehicles have summer/ winter wheels so I can swap them at home.
    The Nokians are unmistakably a better winter tire. I run them on all my vehicles now. Outstanding traction on snow and ice

    Congrats.

    Can't see the picture but I'm sure it was nice after the rain stopped.

    Congrats, Mike!

    My lady and I are gonna finally make an honest man out of me next year, and that band is right in line with what I’m looking at. I found a place online that does similar things, but I’d always prefer to send business to someone local if I can. Does your buddy have a website?

    Very cool rings Mike. I went with a custom for my wife and asked for a basic gold band for myself.

    I have been eyeing a turquoise ring for myself though and almost got one in Yellowstone this summer but it felt a bit impulsive... more looking for native American designed styles but will bookmark that Etsy to see what he does when he reopens the shop

    Suki woke me up this morning 4 am chasing a frickin mouse in my house.
    Ughhhhh
    Ive never seen one in here before,
    this dog is insane trying to catch it, snorting ,shaking, and wagging her tail,alerting where the mouse was, those scent classes sure are paying off..

    Anyone have a mouser dog?

    Archer and I played hookey on Thursday and went for an overnighter. It's nice to have the forest all to yourself during midweek.

    He's getting old and starting to have problems negotiating stairs and stuff.

    Next weekend should be pretty good for peeping.
