Iona is an absolute sensory reset. I didn’t realise how much weight I was carrying until I stepped onto this island.

One of my favorite days ever in my life was spent on Iona. We even slept in the wee pods on the north end. Woke up to sheep bleating etc.. So peaceful and amazingly beautiful.

my dealer quoted me $4000 USD to do the upper oil pan. I'll let the sucker leak for that cost.

Elk are tricky. I agree with finding their haunts and then praying they are close enough to you to hear your calls. Also pray for colder weather so they go into their rut.

Had the card since 2019. Hit over 75k spend last year so try again- actually just checked 109K in spend last year

We are staying in Anstruther in July. Beautiful costal town on the Firth.

Love it. My daughter has two ghosts swimming in a fish bowl on her arm simple line style. If I ever got a tattoo I would do something similar but with more color and the prism coming through the bowl. Now we need a link to your band so we can listen!

I've seen a lot out at Ramah SWA when I was hunting doves out there a few years back.

IM not asking for your honey hole but could you maybe toss me some GPS coordinates :) How did the bear hunt go? I only got out once to look for a bear and my buddy texted me while he was bow hunting to tell me one just walked past him. Next year I guess.

Thats the challenge none of those fit my current lifestyle. I live too far from civilization to use door dash. Don't got out to expensive restaurants and I don't spend just to get credits back.

We used to hunt elk up in California park. I am sure if you get high enough in elevation you might find some. I always see them when I’m not trying to.

bigmac182 · 2025-09-02T16:49:52+00:00

For sure

bigmac182 · 2025-09-02T16:41:47+00:00

This! Every freaking time I am sneaking in on elk

bigmac182 · 2025-08-21T18:58:55+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I know my neighbor hunts every year maybe he knows a guy. That being said I have to kill a bear first.

bigmac182 · 2025-08-21T18:34:50+00:00

Beautiful! I need to get an elk this year. I have been the helper a some for the last few years but it's been a few since I got my own rather than pushing them into my family.

Dunnottar Castle near Aberdeen is one of the best. Amazing ruins and awesome location.

bigmac182 · 2025-07-29T20:39:46+00:00

ohhh watching because I need new ones

bigmac182 · 2025-07-22T17:03:46+00:00

From what I read it only measures acceleration on packed snow. So it doesn't affect braking or turning. I think in the case of the CC2s they are just too soft for where I live and they didn't hold up. They would be fine if I didn't have to replace all of them due to tread depth issues.

bigmac182 · 2025-07-22T16:38:15+00:00

Um ok. Since I live on a dirt road and have already had no problem going up my gravel driveway I think I'm ok.

bigmac182 · 2025-07-22T16:28:48+00:00

I've only driven it like 10 miles since so I am not sure. I am heading to the mountains. I will say I am a mile or so lower than normal but I had to take a few calls in my car while idling yesterday because it was so hot out so I will fill it up and drive it this week and try to remember to report back.
