    Today I Want This....

    I drove a 1985 toyota quarter ton pickup in high school, which is basically the same thing. Two seatbelts, a little bed, and not enough power to get into too much trouble. lol

    Today I Want This....

    KSL has a few as well. Way more money then I'd be willing to spend on one. I kind of see these as a grom. Fun and novel but not really knowing how ownership would be after both of those things wore off.

    Today I Want This....

    Thats what I was looking at when I found the website. Apparently there are Kei microvans also which seem intriguing. A woodworking book publisher that I read a lot has a Kei truck they use as their run around. His daughter got married in their workshop last weekend and she took some pictures...

    Today I Want This....

    I'd have to put the boys in the back for school pick up. I don't think they'd mind.

    Do you Hot Tub? Tubbers Delight

    I bet if you let the chickens in for a soak they'd start laying more eggs. Also, hot tub party? I'll bring the ben and jerrys and dr. pepper.

    A Little Rant on Today's Generation of Kids and Their (lack of) Work Ethic

    I need tires for my hoopty 95' corolla and have been dreading going in to find them...

    Let's Talk Lawns

    Its not ideal to replant in the same hole as the stump because you probably aren't going to go through the trouble of removing all the roots. A couple feet away though is fine. The old tree roots will slowly rot as the new tree roots grow outward. For tree recommendations my standard is to...

    Trip Report Expedition Utah's Overland Skills Camp 2023

    That's a pretty great event location. The owner was kind to allow the group to squat. :cool: Did anyone show up with an aluminum pie iron? I still give my younger brother a hard time for buying one of those as a gift to my mom...

    What books are you reading (or listening to?)

    I've been doing school off and on for a while. Currently working on a sys admin degree through ensign college. I finish an associate in 2013 and could be finished with this 4 year degree end of 2024 if I keep up my couple or three classes a semester. Work is footing the bill so it's fairly low...

    A Little Rant on Today's Generation of Kids and Their (lack of) Work Ethic

    So I have a coworker from Taiwan. He came over in his teens. Apparently his family had some money and influence over there. His dad stayed in Taiwan and his mom and brother moved here. I don't know the whole story and I don't really want to but he says that if you have money in Taiwan you don't...

    Still Photography Set Up

    Thank you both. I'm going to try and find some more lights to use and then take more pictures today. Should I be putting the lights above or at counter level? Maybe both?

    Still Photography Set Up

    My stuff came in. This is the set up I used to take a few pictures this afternoon. The light is a desk light that adjust around. It was kind of a hassle to use and I think the light is a bit too blue for my tastes. I've got another light to try that I can adjust the temperature. Its going...

    What books are you reading (or listening to?)

    School started back up for me so leisure reading has slowed way down. I've got to read 120 pages in an intro cloud technology text book this week. Not my preferred material. I did read a couple free chapters of Endurance last week and really liked it. So far I've been able to hold off...

    Still Photography Set Up

    Yeah I read that by making it curved you can get a solid color bg to look like a gradual gradient by playing with the lighting. The further from the vertical space the more seamless the gradient will look. I'm thinking this gray paper roll and this backdrop stand. I have to take Friday off to...

    Still Photography Set Up

    Thinking about it I seem to remember buying a nifty 50 to go along with the kit lens. I really don't want to do post processing. I haven't done it in the past and don't really have an interest in learning how. I don't have a dedicated place to leave this stuff up so I need to get it up and...

    Still Photography Set Up

    I'm kind of ramping up some of my wood turning stuff to be able to sell some of it this fall and I recognize I need to put more effort into my pictures. These bowls are kind of hard to photograph and accurately show the figure in the wood. I found some good info on a wood turning forum but...
