    100 Pushups

    So I initially managed 16. That was a giant kick in the nuts. Here's to improvement :)

    Picked up a new plinker

    Jack rabbits and squirrels are fair game. Cottontail and snowshoe hair you need a permit for.

    It wasn't you, it was us.

    Glad its back, I was going through symptoms of withdrawal. The shakes were getting bad.

    What has the outdoors taught you?

    I guess I never answered your question directly. If I had to put it into a short narrative, I would say that the outdoors/nature has taught me that I am a part of nature. I can choose to accept that or I can choose to live oblivious to that fact. I should feel just as at home as in the...

    What has the outdoors taught you?

    I often find myself coming back to the argument of Conservation vs. Preservation and feel that if Gifford Pinchot had been a tenth the writer that John Muir had been we would be seeing things a bit differently. (By "we" I mean the collective "we".)

    If you want something more immediate to read, check out "The Trouble with Wilderness; or, Getting Back to the Wrong Nature" by William Cronon. http://www.williamcronon.net/writing/Trouble_with_Wilderness_Main.html

    What has the outdoors taught you?

    If anyone is looking for a good book on the subject of nature, I highly recommend "Wilderness and the American Mind". It's a good read although quite long. And for the parents and future parents out there, I love "Last Child in the Woods" Both fairly "green" leaning books, but offer good...

    What has the outdoors taught you?

    I've spent so much time learning about the outdoors, about the philosophy of nature. I'm sure I could fill a book on what I've learned about and from the outdoors. This is one of those conversations that should be had over a fire.

    Do you browse KSl classifieds with no intention of buying, just for fun?

    I'm looking casually for a certain vehicle, so I will often look around. I haven't yet contacted someone to look at a vehicle and probably won't until I'm more serious about buying.

    Hanging Tree Trail (founders day) wheeling with most of the trail pioneers.(SNOW)

    Saw you guys parked at Sears. Having dinner at the cafe I assume. That white tow rig was awesome as well.

    Where is this? The game...

    I know where that is, I've swam there a few times. If nobody else posts up before I get home tonight, I'll chime in.

    Longtravel Car?

    I've always liked the sedan version of the Subaru outback. They sit higher than a normal car, and I've always thought they could be a fun vehicle with some all terrains thrown on them.

    Longtravel Car?

    What about an AMC Eagle. Although I'd love a Local Motors Rally Fighter ;)

    RME lawn treatment specialists?

    It has greened up my lawn early, and kept it green all year. Generally, I keep my lawn a bit longer than most I think around three inches. You can start to build up more topsoil. I would get compost (I love nutri-mulch) but down here I can just go grab a truckload and spread it thin on my yard...

    RME lawn treatment specialists?

    I'm no specialist, but I worked at a golf course for three years and applied a lot of different fertilizers. I love IFA's four step lawn treatment. I've never had a greener lawn than when I followed this program.

    UCE3 - Utah Cruiser Expedition 3

    I love the Rock Corral. When I was with the BLM that was part of my field office. I'd make any excuse I could to go there. Here's a different view of the south side of the road. Some pretty good climbing over there. Thanks for sharing your trip, I've wanted to hit up a few of these...
