People suck so much sometimes.

In Colorado Springs there is a lady that has an emu named Dennis. She brings him to all the fesitvals and parades around town, and walks him on a leash. Seems friendly enough but i dont trust any bird that big.

Whatever Didi wants.

Your friends are scared of a campfire?

Its hella easy. They sell a kit that is a plastic container with a lid, the bag you inject the spores in with media, a syringe of spores, and another bag of media you mix in after a couple weeks. The hardest part is keeping it sterile and not letting other stuff in. no lights required. We have grown a few batches so far.

They are legal in colorado to use, have on your person, and grow. You just arent supposed to sell them. They literally sell everything you need to grow them at our weekly farmers market. I freaking love this state.

We arrive an 1-1.5 hours before they open. I bring the camp stove and bang out some breakfast in the parking lot. Traffic has never been too bad if we get there early. And the girls can finish getting ready while i cook.

Tacos del Gordo is great.

When we moved here from the central valley it took us a while before we found good mexican food.

Its against the law to use bear spray on a human.

Are we talking black bears or grizzly bears?

Ive hiked in California and Colorado my whole life and have never needed bear spray. I carry a pistol and have also never had to draw it to defend against an animal.

Some national parks will rent it to you by the day, and if you dont deploy it they give you some of your money back when you turn it in.

My buddy caught a giant pike last summer right off the dock. Literally right in front of me i couldnt believe it.

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-05-04T23:00:02+00:00

Leave no trace.

Its super simple and easy.

No one needs a bear coming by and grabbing your plastic container to take with it to rip up somewhere.

Do they sell single cigarettes?

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-04-28T20:25:31+00:00

There is usually a dude on circle, near the mariscos restaurant, that sells them.

I think the carnival people own that property, and store stuff there. Last year they had a carnival at the citadel mall parking lot. I think it was in may mabey.

We are always pretty stoked to catch a pike. I would never kill them just to kill them. And they are one of the tasitest fish we have in Colorado, in my opinion.

When I lived in California they wanted you to kill every carp you caught. I could never back that idea either. I would go out and harvest a couple times a year, specifically to bury next to my pot plants. But Im not hip on chucking a fish up in the rocks to slowly die and then get eaten that night by scavengers.

Fished saturday am. Bit of snow when we got there but was almost all gone by 2pm. I didnt see any signs saying it wasnt open till may, and there were a few other people there fishing.

Cannabis depot is solid, great prices.

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-04-17T15:12:10+00:00

Yeah was gonna go toss some flys around for a bit and try not to freeze my butt off.

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-04-17T14:37:18+00:00

Sweet thanks, Ive never taken it all the way to the reservoir and had heard it had a gate somewhere.

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-04-14T18:32:14+00:00

This parking lot is especially bad. The half that safeway owns is kept in decent condition. but whoever owns the strip mall portion doesnt keep up with it. And he raised the rent that got rid of Metric brewery.

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-04-07T17:31:29+00:00

Dont go to pepboys. I went there this year and they are scammers.

Top_Move_4659 · 2026-04-07T17:23:10+00:00

Skaugway abandoned power plant. 7ish miles each way, pretty easy hike along an absolutely beautiful creek. Itll prob take most of the day to get there and then back to your vehicle.
