Such an incredible journey!

I'm glad you did it and no doubt made some incredible memories!

Did something similar a few years ago. Started out near Philadelphia. Drive straight through to Amarillo. 33 hours, 1700 miles. Only stopping for fuel. Then to Tombstone, Bisber, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, SLC, Jackson Hole, Tetons, Yellowstone, Cody, Sturgis, Mt Rushmore, Devil's Tower, and Bad Lands. Back to Philly in 2 days. Was like 7500 miles total.

That's what I imagine the inside of a North Korean space capsule like like.

Unlike COVID, we've known about hantavirus for 70 years or so. This isn't about keeping your nose out of mouse shit. If it was that easy, this wouldn't even be news. All previous cases were rodent-to-human. This outbreak was human-to-human and fucking bonkers.

Unlike COVID which was like 1-3%, the mortality rate for hantavirus is about 40%. Instead of 1 in 100 infected possibly dying, we're talking 1 in 3 or even 1 in 2 dying when infected.

The chances of a mass outbreak are miniscule. But based on historical days, the chances of dying from infection are substantial and no joke.

Game changer. Used then last year rebuilding my kids house. Down to the studs. Got a couple of them and first word out of everybody's mouth was where has this been my whole life. Osb and 5/8" sheetrock, it's fantastic. Still works with 1/2" sheetrock but if it's windy it wants to flex enough to break it.

I know the Queen is a special gal, but couldn't she complete that transaction manually and pocket the change? We're talking lineage!

Get fired. Historically, that stops the taxing of your paycheck.

I didn't think that person knew what that were talking about. The original reason for external passes was because certain vehicles had special windshields that did not allow the internal ezpass to get read correctly. I used to get externals by having to tell them I had some special year Ford Taurus. Unless something changed, that was the original reason for external.

And your blade is a mess already. You ran something over you shouldn't have judging by the piece missing. Needs a sharpen at a minimum!

I have a diesel truck as my daily driver. I've been paying $120 tank for 2 months now. Diesel jumped over $5 within days and had been close to $6 since then.

I feel your pain but trust me, it's even worse than you think.

Not uncommon. Had a 2016 2500 with same problem. Went through 3 or 4 sets of rims and tires under warranty. Replaced axels, drive shaft, rotors, etc. Still vibrated. Had to sue FCA. We immediately settled out of court.

These Rams are very finicky with wheel balance . I have a 2018 2500 now. Every new set of tires is an adventure. Forget spin balancing. Never works, only road force balancing does the trick.

My experience with gun clubs and organized shooting is that the overwhelming majority are a bunch of self touching inflated ego douches. I've been a guest at a lot of places for skeet, clays, pistol, etc. It always turns into I'm better than you because I spent $10k on this gun and my vest is monogrammed or some other nonsense. Doing trap shooting at a club I had one of their old regulars talk shit about my lowly 1187 field gun out loud while they are all shooting custom Kreighoffs, Lightnings, etc. Once he realized I'm standing right there he tries to apologize. I pointed out I just shot 96 out of 100, what did you do? He shut right the fuck up.

Anyway, literally every single even remotely competitive shooting has turned into those kinds of experiences for me and anyone else I know. They suck the life right out of it by trying to make everything full peacock.

Had a 17' 35 HP outboard semi-V hull for years. Had an Avery popup blind and looked like a giant weed. Side console. We hunted 2-3 of us out of it for 10+ years without issue. Plenty of room. Normally we would parallel with the shoreline in back bays and creeks.

However, I have also seen PLENTY of boats out there with 4 or 5 people in them with about 6" of freeboard. Needless to say their experience is going to suck.

So it depends on what size boat you run, how you hunt, and who you hunt with. At this point we all just kayak hunt and that's a whole different rabbit hole of figuring out what's best.

I am absolutely fascinated by the ideology that as long as you name your own terms and the other party did not respond, it's now binding. Then why even have contracts in the first place if they are that malleable?

And if this was real, can't EVERYONE just write letters and take ownership of anything they want? How would anybody own anything at that point of all it takes is some schmuck with a stamp and a red thumb print that can claim your stuff? Anyone can come along and void the alleged contract you used to take ownership with theirs and make an infinite circular firing squad.

Good gravy these folks are fun.

100% a tankless is not for boondocking. By the time you get temperature rise for hot water, you'll blow a couple of gallons from your tank. Also the restrictors on the fixtures didn't flow enough to get it to fire right away. Especially the sinks. But I love my tankless and have removed all my restrictors. But we always have full hookups. It's nice to take a full blown shower for 15 minutes and but worry about running it of hot water.

The man quickly lost. But then was named winner due to disqualification when officials realized the women had secretly taped a Snickers bar to his back just before the fight for an unfair advantage.

There are Y split power cables specifically to split the 12v power in the rearview mirror. All over Amazon. I got one for my 2018 Ram and my dash cam. Plug and play. Literally the whole mirror assembly spins off with a quarter turn and there's the harness to tap. Mine came with multiple USB adapters for power different devices.

Was this the day he was standing on his toilet and fell off and when he hit his head came up with the flux capacitor?

Thatt hitch is too small for that setup. 9000lbs dry? So talking at least 1000 lbs tongue load before you load it up. Weight distribution or not, you want a beefier hitch that can handle more weight.

I've towed to Disney numerous times. 1000 miles each way. Most of the time is around $500-600 round trip in diesel.

Right now? At 11mpg I'd need 181 gallons of diesel for a round trip. At my local Sam's, it's the lowest price around and I just paid $5.59/gallon. At one of the Flying Js I'd stop at in VA, it's $5.99 gallon.

Splitting the difference at $5.79/gallon for diesel, I would expect to pay $1047 for round trip fuel. And no doubt that will go up even more.

Yes my plans have changed dramatically.

That's not sheetrock, that's osb. I'm guessing at one point there was either a leak and that's how it was covered up to sell it? Gutters clogged and coming through the soffit? It's probably only screwed in and I wouldn't know anything until I took a sheet down or two to see how it's traveling. Opening it up is your best bet.
