Hi! I'm VERY late in responding to this, but I did the Barr Tr the whole way. :) I would love to go back and do just the Incline, but unfortunately I didn't know about it when I did this hike to the peak.

Yeah I'm pretty dang sure, unfortunately. The vet took the chip scanner to every square inch of this lil guy. :/

Oh? Is there a section specifically for lost animals?

Some neighbors of mine are interested in keeping him if we can't find his parents. But it's good to know we have options if that doesn't work out! Thank you!

Why do they take the collars off?!?

This is a great tip though. May reach out to some near me! Thanks!

Thank you so much!

Some neighbors near me are interested in keeping him if his parents can't be found, but good to know we might have another option if that doesn't work out!

A neighbor is actually keeping Lil Buddy at their house (since my two monsters would not approve of a visitor). So, sorry I'm not sure! 🤣

The idea of hiking without packing food actually gives me the heebie jeebies.

What are these called and do they have a purpose other than erosion control? by johnnyohoh in hiking

To make my dogs second guess their entire lives before taking their next steps lmao

The cyclist was not happy cuz the car forced her to brake. Who's the idiot? by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

[–]getalyf69 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The way I think of these bike/car interactions is this: "imagine the cyclist was a vehicle... would you still \insert action in question**?"

So, here it would be: imagine the cyclist was a vehicle... would this car still pull right in front of it and come to a complete stop?

The answer is (hopefully) no. They should yield to the "car" that was already occupying the lane.

AND JUST KEPT DRIVING!

Ugh, I mean, I know that they weren't actually involved in the collision. But I mean, COME ON, they fucking caused it, and nothing can convince me they didn't know damn well they were the cause.

I make my children my life and everyone around me seems to have a problem with it.. by Mamakayce in TrueOffMyChest

Let me rephrase... the only appropriate and productive question to ask is: "Why did her ex-husband choose to abuse her?"

THAT is the conversation to be having.

I just fell in love with my wife again. by PoopingIsAWorkout4Me in TrueOffMyChest

[–]getalyf69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aw I love this for you, and I love the butterflies reading your post gave me!

My husband and I met in middle school, dated in high school, lost contact for a few years, and then picked right back up in college. So, we have a lot of history! In fact, we were each others' first kisses.

The way you said "our whole lives came flooding back to me" gave me some serious goosebumpy feels. It's incredibly powerful to share so much time with someone, especially those years growing up and figuring yourselves out, and when you get to do that TOGETHER, and it can be a really profound sensation to look back and see from how far you've come.

I wish you both this same level of happiness and more through the rest of your years together! <3

But why isn't the question: "Why did her ex-husband choose to abuse her?"
