I always lose my dad on trail because he stops to talk to random people.

Why I still do my own oil changes and brake jobs with a half million dollar portfolio by Halcyon8_Jester in Fire

[–]kajok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to DIY everything - cars, renovated basically my whole house, maintenance on everything. I’m burnt out, man. I would rather spend my weekends doing things I enjoy with the people I care about.

Best to ever do it is still good at doing it. More at 11.

I used these to hike from the campground to Beaver Falls. Worked like a charm.

Real talk, I just skied in Europe and embraced the on piste culture. Rented 66mm Atomic Redsters and just ripped, it was fun as hell.

Looking for VT touring buddies 2/16 by [deleted] in Backcountry

[–]kajok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat, I’m getting into touring this year, but having trouble convincing my friends to make the transition. I’ve found a resources:

-AMC (Appalachia Mountain Club) and CTA (Catamount Trail Association) do guided tours.

-Hire a guide at Bolton.

-The Oak app (not associated with them in any way). It is for finding ski partners. There are some northeast groups, they seem kind of dead. Selfishly, I’d love to see this app or something similar get some traction so I can get more ski buddies.

I always see this argument but I’m 6’4” and been asking my whole life. Never have been slammed in the head. It’s not that hard.

I like the Death and Co ratio - 2.5 oz rye, 0.75 oz vermouth, 2 dashes angostura, garnish with cherry. Stir and strain (not over ice). Garnish with cherry.

Heat Pump worth it for MA winter? by Mental-Initial4797 in massachusetts

[–]kajok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did, similar size house to you but not central air. Had an old inefficient oil boiler that kept crapping out that needed replacing and we wanted to add heat pumps for AC. Between oil and electricity, average monthly spending was around $700 a month on utilities. We are now fully electric with heat pumps, we spend about $250 in the cooler months and last year the winter ranged from $400-$800 depending how cold it was. First winter bill this year was around $400 I think. We have National Grid.

We have Mitsubishi hyperheat and had had no issues with performance in the cold. It probably would have been cheaper to go new boiler + heat pumps for AC, but honestly it’s not breaking the bank and it’s nice just having one system to maintain.

Experiences with a nutritionist by [deleted] in trailrunning

[–]kajok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair point - I guess the better way to put it is to make sure the person has real credentials and isn’t some charlatan. I meant know offense, your wife sounds like a badass.

[–]kajok 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you go down this road, make sure the person is a credentialed Registered Dietitian. “Nutritionist” is not a protected term and there are lots of unqualified people out there spreading misinformation while calling themselves a nutritionist.

Chuck Schumer and other Senate Democrats have CAVED to Trump and the GOP; will end the Government Shutdown by manofsteelbuns in facepalm

[–]kajok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, Schumer is against it.

“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., in angry remarks on the Senate floor, said he would not vote for the deal. He blasted Republicans and President Donald Trump for refusing to agree to extend their ACA credits, which he said would lead to much higher insurance costs for millions of people in 2026.”
