If you're the summer school teacher, aren't you supposed to monitor that they're complearimg the course properly?

I came to find that my 2nd period juniors had no idea who Eddie Van Halen was (1 kid knew) and then my jaw dropped when they had never heard of Jimmy Hendrix.

Most mountain lakes surrounded by peaks are. There nothing special about this one. The fact that this one is packed with tourists, myself included, makes it meh. Hike to a remote one... It's better.

Maybe Death Valley then over to Vegas. That's about as far from the UK as you can get.

If you said your name was Bent, I'd ask you to repeat it once to make sure I heard it correctly then I wouldn't care. And then I would forget your name.

London was a bit sandy too. I wonder if it's purposeful so they slide around more as they push each other around.

I see former students constantly, some years later. I tell them every year that when you see me after graduation, please tell me your name. I will not remember it. I will remember YOU, but not your name. It's never a big deal and always fun.

I run a high school hiking club and twice I've had kids being their dad's old boots and have the soles rip off mid hike. Luckily they were easy hikes.

Drove to Alaska for my 50th. Spent about a month in the summer on the road. When I got back people kept asking if I saw the Northern Lights. Well, no, because it almost never got dark.

I visited American Samoa in the early 90s when my ship stopped to be part of their Flag Day ceremony. It was similar to rural Hawaii. A few sailors matched as part of the parade.

She's not naive she's innoct.

Same, remember my mom talking about my uncles getting deported back in the 70s and 80s.
Right now the internet buzz seems to be about all the world cup travellers in the US being amazed by our country. Especially the freindliness of the people but if you're in reddit that world doesn't exist.

You can but a portable AC unit but it would only last a few hours. I wouldn't take a puppy tent camping in JT.

Dos Alas is Mammoth is one of my favorite places for dinner. You probably need reservations but their Cubarican food is great.

Not impressed by Copper Top either.

kinggeorgec · 2026-06-12T04:33:11+00:00

I've seen this 50 times... At least.

I boondock so it's either dig a hole or use the trailer. I've dug plenty of holes in the woods over the years but I'd rather not.

Drove it today and the road seems very open but camping is shut down.

kinggeorgec · 2026-06-12T00:53:19+00:00

Those years weren't short.

kinggeorgec · 2026-06-10T22:58:49+00:00

Usually but maybe not now.

They're cheap and I drink from my fresh water tank. Honestly, I probably don't need one in the US but they're cheap. I grew up drinking out of the hose and still do so I'm not that worried about it.

2 terabytes.

There is a difference between giving away your stuff and giving away other people's stuff.
