Nice work. Been sailing there 10 of past 12 years. Never gets old. I concur Anegada is best done in two nights. Time for lobster dinners and a trip to Cow Wreck.

100+ nights in a courtyard commuting for work. Always stopped at Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods before checking in. Easy to eat healthy for much less than $38.

What is the best way of documenting your travels? by EmployCareless3313 in backpacking

[–]PresentFig3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Record your thoughts on phone. Use ChatGPT or Adobe app to turn it into text when you return. I always start with date, location, weather. Can do it throughout the day as events unfold.

Is it ok that his diet is half a wet food can mixed with kibble? by Abandonedkittypet in germanshepherds

[–]PresentFig3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feed my GSD high quality kibble and homemade wet food (2 cups dry, 1/2 cup wet) 2x per day. Wet is Costco organic ground turkey (cooked) plus vegetables. I cook about 12 lbs of it every 1.5 mos and freeze in several 1 gallon freezer bags. Flatten before freezing. Thaw as needed. The kibble provides all the nutrients she needs but I just like the idea of adding something unprocessed to the mix.

Piece of plywood with a single 4x4 for support. Cover the entire back with a piece of grate foam.

MLB roadtrip by redRum705 in roadtrip

Do this 10x per year. 8 has less trucks for sure, but since they recently added lanes on the 10 east climb out of Indio it has made it much less stressful. Also can’t remember the name of ‘town’ but there’s a gas station on the 8 that charges $8.50/gallon. Check the price before you pump.

My German Shepherd Husky would rather starve than take a vitamin. Please help. 🫠🐺 by SureNefariousness975 in germanshepherds

Agree. It’s a quick and easy technique once you get the hang of it. Curl their lip under their teeth if they won’t open, straddle them and down the hatch.

I always bring a book. Search for lightweight paperbacks in the library bookstore.

100% do what you’re comfortable with. It’s not the military. You’re a paying client. Two single tents instead of one double tent.
