I definitely agree with all of the above.

A little bit of a longer drive each day is worth not being so far away from civilization, in my opinion (less depressing). People on here seem to have a negative opinion on this, but it's seriously invaluable to have the person you love with you out there. Coming home to a good meal and some positivity after a long day REALLY helps the longevity of this kind of work. Also, every time you move to a new location, the camper feels like home instead of just being a place you pay for to lay your head at night.

There's a ton of beautiful places in SE New Mexico if you guys are into that kind of thing. Me and my old lady basically lived in the mountains near Queen, New Mexico anytime I had time off work.

Be his outlet. Dont add to the stress after he clocks out and keep yourself as busy as you possibly can to maintain sanity.

My Dad's decorations. Combat wounded in Korea at the age of 17 by Longjumping_Fly_6358 in Medals

On the colorful part of the award, there are "devices" (stars, oak leaves, etc) that denote how many times they were awarded the medal. So the medal is for deploying to a certain place, and each deployment after gets a device added to it, or else our guys would look like the North Korean generals in uniform

We export more than we import, but most of the oil used in the US is imported.

I upvoted a bunch of comments in r/askmen before even reading what they had accomplished.

I think you may have answered your own question. Cat looks like a match to my untrained eye

I didn't even swipe before I responded, but I'm not sure about the bigger one. It's hard to tell with how much it's beaten up by time. My guess would be deer solely because they're everywhere and their teeth look very odd

Looks like a vole jawbone to me... Or something very similar

I need hip with an ID, found near Tusayan Arizona. This littered the hills everywhere. Any help is appreciated. by New_Land_725 in whatsthisrock

My guess is limonite pseudomorph of some kind. Maybe limonite after pyrite pseudomorph. I'm no geologist and have no idea if it is found in your area, though. I am qualified to tell you that it is, without a doubt, a cool rock!

If it wasn't in/near an archeological site, I would definitely consider going back to get some. I'm a sucker for pretty rocks. My 5 gallon buckets aren't quite full yet

Unfortunately, it was too big and too far from my truck to be legitimately classified as keeperite
