The lava rock sure has cut the heel out of my feet trying to snorkel on the rocky shore, that's been a bummer.
Today we did a snuba/snorkel trip. That was pretty fun, but we saw some whales, and now it's too late to cancel the whale watching trip in a few days. I think we're going to rent a fishing pole and try some fishing, even though none of us knows what we're doing when it comes to fishing.
Synopsis of the trip. You're wearing mask, even in the water. AND... trying to snag a whale, with a fishing pole. That's the kind of vacation i can support. What kind of bait for the whales?Quote:

We did the same because of the cost of restaurant meals. We found the grocery delis had a great selection of foods, especially poke and sushi. Poke, bread and wine became daily and luxurious meals. And much cheaper than restaurants.Quote:

I drove all the way to one of local gun store to do background check for firearm I won on Gunbroker. They said they cannot give me the mags, because it is not CO compliant mags. I told them that i emailed prior to bidding that it was, because they only put "7 mags" as magazine description, and they confirmed for pickup.
That guy who is in charge of gunbroker account needs to do a better fking job putting detail description and know what they are doing. , fuk,.. just wasted my precious morning.
No, you need a better gun store.Quote:

Ha! Been there with my daughter a few times. Humbling but great for her confidence.Quote:

School issued chrome books are very slow doe multitasking.
Google class on while doing assignment can be fraustrating.
Teach a man to fish there and leave it with him.Quote:

If you want to learn how to fly fish, and you will not regret it or go back to spin casting, I know the man to teach you. He's one of my best buds and cool as hell. His YT chanel is "Trout Soup" if you're interested in some of our adventures. This was Trappers:Quote:

I?ve had some staining to do myself. Got part of it done on a semi warm day. Did some of it yesterday. Applied in the cold garage and then carefully moved the project into my climate controlled living room to dry.
prices of anything construction / home repairs have quadrupled (on some items) this year. CDX went up 6 per sheet a month ago. Priced it again this morning, another 3 per sheet.Quote:

The car / hot rod crowd is OUTRAGED CA & WA is doing this. How dare they ban them, based on the brake pads composition!!!
I set the fire by saying, Well now you know how gun owners feel. WELL THAT'S DIFFERENT, as is the usual response. When one points out the capricious & arbitrary way legislators make things illegal. One never believes everyone is one signature away from loosing another freedom / choice. Until it happens to them.
If you own one of those cars and drive through those states ?-> rebel.
All the more reason to not stop in those states and just pass on through.

Yea thats no joke, spent over $100 in fasteners and stain / poly alone. Between that, legs and top this desk came in at about $400 ish. But it'll be a nice desk and make the wife happy.Quote:

Been watching NFR from Texas this year.
