I’m still in Moab in a holding pattern.  My cousin who is supposed to be with me had a family emergency.  We were supposed to be in the mid west today for this. Kinda of glad I missed the show!  Looks like another system on Monday but will miss that show as well.

How does humans going on a plant based diet stop cows from farting and burping?

The theory is the cows will ultimately commit suicide as a result of a diet void of delicious beef products.

1st pic looks like insect damage. Were there tunnels in the vascular tissue or was the tree invaded because it was in poor health? 

Here is the stump pic!

56/49 day here with showers at times after some steady rain overnight. Yesterday was 62/42 with morning sun and evening rain.

Ending April on a cool and wet note with a 56/39 average and a little over 6” rain for the month as a whole.

We ban beef consumption and then keep enough cows for dairy and the rest become wild. And the wild ones find their natural place within the food chain. Which…is probably not very high. And then wolves are in control again. And then cows enter the endangered species list which means killing the wolves. Ah fackkk it never ends!!

Pretty sweet!! Is that considered glamping? My dad is adamant that we put some glamping sites on the property in twisp and I’m skeptical

Sleeps 4 inside

AC/ and small heater 

beds rustic with generic pad and you bring your own sleeping bags.

Nutten else 

Pretty nice to just show up and move your gear in. Enough room under front door to allow rattlesnakes in for the night 😁

Nice!  We stayed in a KOA in a little cabin when we were last there. Wasn’t that nice though…

Their basic and fit the need….love KOA camp grounds and the pool here is sweet!   Classic rock playing on speakers with gas fireplaces lit up.  Everyone in camp having a good time and it is sold out

00z GFS 500mb looks like something you’d expect in December. Wavelengths not summerlike by any means.

Of course it’s the GFS, so..meh.

Billy, do you like movies about gladiators? Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?
