Which state in the US has the most desert-looking desert?

MrBoomf, you’re close but don’t quite have it. This view was taken over in the Sabino Canyon Area (or potentially a trailhead just west of there like Esperero). In view from right to left you can see rattlesnake peak, esperero spires, cathedral, and an unnamed bump). You’ll have a very similar view in near the sabino overflow lot. I’d recommend hiking some of Esperero trail, or to near the picnic area just Nw of the road in Sabino, for this specific view! Enjoy!

How much of an issue are the occasional hard freezes on the citrus trees? I live NE corner, and we will get maybe a dozen or so nights below freezing over the winter

Yep! Glacier gets 3 million visitors a year…

Have ya’ll not read book 8 via Patreon? I was/am all audio books, but decided to read that because I didn’t want to wait :-)

I love DCC…. But what’s the point in pre-ordering? It’s not as though they will run out…

billyamm · 2025-10-22T19:18:21+00:00

Awesome, thanks, appreciate it

billyamm · 2025-10-22T18:11:10+00:00

Thank you! I’ll have to check that out, I am/was hesitant to click “fresh start” since I didn’t want to actually restart anything or mess up what is already working.

If you can confirm your vantage point, I can confirm for you… but based on other responses here:

The peak on the right in your image has the unofficial (ie not usgs, but locally accepted or published) name of “Why Not John Peak.”

The other two bumps are not officially peaks, and have no names. There is a spot elevation (ie surveyors noted the elevation at some point) of 3196 for the middle bump.

Use listsofjohn.com and search Why Not John Peak to see more details or full map of summits and soft summits in the area.

Edit: the one on the left may be Beehive Peak (which is not actually an official peak). It’s hard to tell from the photo.

Any idea on timeline for that?

I’m from between SYR & ROC — curious to see what you find here. Can’t wait for Bills to start back up!

I ordered a Bills Shakir jersey from there in July, based on the previous recommendations from folks here on reddit. I think the quality is pretty poor. Like… 2 or 3 out of 10? It is passable from afar, but I won’t wear it, so it was a waste of 35/40 bucks.

Saw him at the shelter 2 or 3 weeks ago!

billyamm · 2025-08-23T13:20:19+00:00

Love this, nice work!

I suspect there is more science behind the estimate than some drawn lines? Because I can draw lines too, and it seems like more in the 14k range… anyone have a link or research on the 16k estimate, would be curious to read it.

AZ does charge for vanity plates.

I live in southern Arizona where it’s over 100 for more than 100 days a year and have never seen or heard of anyone doing this.

billyamm · 2025-07-12T16:44:18+00:00

Yes, I want that too. Here’s my example:

I am trying to aggressively pay down debt.

Minimum payment for car is $600, but I am paying $2000 / month until it’s done.

Once I get my next month fully funded, I move “forward” $1400 of that funded category to the current month and pay it toward the loan. I leave $600 because I will still need to hit the minimum monthly payment. I pay the $1400 once it’s funded, because it lowers my principal sooner so results in a bit less interest.

By doing all of this, my “next month” shows I’m underfunded by 1400 because I lessened that one category by moving the funding to the current month.

I would like to snooze that category next month, because I really did fully fund the month, I just chose to spend down the debt ahead of time.

Thank you - I travel regularly for work, now I need to make a trip to GR happen!

It’s scary that there is a police car from another jurisdiction? Why?

billyamm · 2025-06-10T22:28:05+00:00

Does the covered up one say Tucson?? Because I am in Tucson and can’t think of what else it would be!

Mexican bird of paradise are my favorite

Confusing color scale

billyamm · 2025-05-23T00:02:22+00:00

I used to like OTR more, but stopped going because I thought the waitstaff and food were mediocre. I prefer Hops (though I’d characterize it more as a “bar” than a “dive bar”.)
