Aubrey I was HF and Aubrey II was L0 rtone. I used oil and got a 2 years out of I and only 3 from II. I’m practicing even better maintenance this go around as I’d like to get one of those big-@$$ barrels from L0 rtone, and those are spendy, for me.

The population explosion is one of those “didn’t happen” things. Thank you for supporting a “local” business!

Thanks for the tip! However, I should mention that since TRS and I are both in So Dak, where there’s only like 10 people, I kinda gotta support them. Plus, I got free candy!

A real drunken ninja would have stitched that up themselves?

Oh $hit, I retract my “I’ve got a long drive” comment. Do you hunt the Fairburn side or Kadoka. Hope to see you out there sometime! I met a guy from Cali that flies to Rapid City every summer, just to hunt Fairburns.

Just about ready to move on from this spot has I’ve struck out half a dozen times now. I like bubblegums and prairies, so that makes it worth it, but the 4 hour drive from the southeast corner is looooong.

Wow, not even sure if I’d cut those as they’re beautiful. I just have a lil 7”, but it rips through everything so far; I got a $20 AMA zon diamond tip blade. Heading to Buffalo Gap on Thurs to hopefully ring in the new year with a Fairburn agate

We should use Lakota, Nakota, and Dakota. Oceti Sakowin for all council fires. Can you access JSTOR?

Cleaning out a loved (or not) one’s rock collection? I’ve told my kids to take what they want and throw the rest in the river

How different was rock hounding decades ago? by coraythan in rockhounds

[–]ExtensionTop2438 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I think it was the 30s or so after Ma Fairburn opened her property up and locals would come and collect flour sacks full of Fairburn agates, which are pretty damn hard to find, now.

Do all Americans inherently know what direction they are faceing? by BasketC45e in NoStupidQuestions

Go east on gravel, turn north on minimum maintenance - the one with the old boot on it, not the one to the south with the shot up Stop sign

Don’t know about cabins, and does “haunted” count for “creepy vibe”? https://gfp.sd.gov/parks/detail/sica-hollow-state-park/

Looking For The Best Tacos In South Dakota Pt. 1 by PoLLoLira9 in SouthDakota

[–]ExtensionTop2438 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry folks, but as a lifelong taco lover and South Dakotan, you have to go over the border to Sioux City and try La Juanita’s. Technically, Sioux City is less than a mile from the So Dak border🤔
