    TRUMP: Whats the real deal?

    Post above needs to reference and facts to support it. I won't trust a pretty picture alone (although great if it is correct, no one will defend human trafficking.) I was asked to clarify my position on immigration. Happy to do so. In general, for decades legal immigration has been based on...

    No more state safety inspection in utah

    I am still on the fence on this one. Part of me worries unsafe vehicles will be on the road- either because people know there is a problem and simply choose to ignore it or more likely simply don't know. Simple reality is many drivers don't know how to recognize a problem as simple as a bald...

    Board and Train Dog Trainers

    Couple of comments here: For a trainer, I think we get more positive feed back from our clients from a company called Dog 2 Dog than anyone else. In general, especially for working breeds the home environment is key. A bored working dog is trouble, pure and simple.

    TRUMP: Whats the real deal?

    On the topic of "the wall" and immigration, the Trump/Republican approach is completely wrong. The real solution to illegal immigration is to make legal immigration a realistic option. I hear a lot of people claim they have nothing against immigration from Mexico or Central America if they...

    TRUMP: Whats the real deal?

    I will take the position that for the nation as a whole things are worse. The real damage done by Trump is based much more on moral values, tone and civility. The Republican party used to stand for basic moral virtues as fidelity in marriage, honesty and rule of law. All that is gone. I...

    Christmas Tree Lights

    Like the tree decorating, but will admit lights are not the fun part. Far better than outside lights, but that can really be blamed on the fact that I don't care to heights and our current roof is too step for my taste.

    Who does boating? The hobby conundrum......

    Per DWR 7 days in summer, 18 fall/spring, 30 days in winter between lakes. https://wildlife.utah.gov/invasive-mussels.html Very concerned that they let a boat into Jordanelle with water from Mead in the ballasts. Hope that doesn't come back to bite us all. I think the entire thing was...

    Who does boating? The hobby conundrum......

    Own a 2001 Hyrdoswift 2200. Honestly it spends very little time on the water- 2018 had it out to Pineview for Girls Camp and 4 day trip to Lake Powell. Tough balance of using it enough to justify but not to let it overwhelm other family time. For us, it has proven a fantastic family...

    6.7 diesel gas mileage question

    I also wondered why would cross off the GMC. The ride from the Chevy/GMCs we have had a worlds better than the Dodge that preceded them and reliability has been fantastic. Sold an 04 few years ago with 350K on it and our '06 is sitting at 220ish. Can't say that I have paid too much attention...

    Cancun, Cabo or??

    Quick glance looks like a place my wife would vote for. If we stayed there or in Cancun proper (unlikely) would we be happier renting a car for Chichen Itza and doing day trip on our own or group tour? Like doing things on own, but can learn a lot from a good guide.

    Cancun, Cabo or??

    Booked flights last night to Cancun. Was for sure planning on renting car. Still need to finalize lodging but leaning towards Tulum. Will report back post trip!

    Cancun, Cabo or??

    Yes, I know Lori well and have had her looking a little into trip prices, but honestly Travelocity is where she is fining best deals. She has looked into other trip options for us as well. That does sound like something worth looking into for future years. This year our son and I both took...

    Cancun, Cabo or??

    Looking for quick, cheap and warm family trip for the week before Christmas. 3-4 days, shooting for around $600/person, airfare included. Will be my wife, 3 kids (ages 18-23) and me. We are not bar hoppers or luxary travel types. Thoughts?

    Snowmobile rentals

    Daniels Summit and Bear River Lodge are ones I had looked at. Not much different on rentals from in town and tow places, although Bear River tacks on a bunch of extra fees like oil. Must be early in season because not many rental listing on KSL. Right now best option may be Alpine, Wyoming...

    Why are people so stupid?

    SXS and ATVs. Saw the same thing during the deer hunt on Dowd Mountain. Not near as clearly marked as the one posted, but a lot of tracks heading down the hiking trail to Hide Out.

    Snowmobile rentals

    Wanting to get my family out for a day or two of snowmobiling while the kids are all home from college over Christmas. Not sure if a return to West Yellowstone falls into this year's budget. Any suggestions as to good local rentals or places in Utah for package snowmobile and lodging?
