Onboarding a new employee today. Always good with more hands but so much crap to go through to get it all rolling with IT security and misc onboarding.

BRUHS. I hit the high school track early this morning for a workout, which was 2 x 3 miles hard. Felt pretty good for an early morning workout. It's hard to muster up the energy first thing in the morning. I had to rush home for a 7 AM meeting, because India, and India didn't join the meeting.

1. It would appear some pigment challenges hairs are making their presence known on my head. The time has come.

2. @Montana rider, ever been through rhe Idaho sliver of Yellowstone? Was reading a piece about it last night and was rather intrigued at the prospects.

I dunno, did you mean this article:


I've done a short hike in the Bechler, it's a pia to access so <<<<<< foot traffic.

The only time I've taken a snow coach to OF, it was -40f that weekend and we bumped into forest service friends who were planning to 3 night ski out via Bechler from OF.

That's a big can of nope, but they said there's a ton of soaking friendly springs in that locale.

This guy <= would probably prefer to hit the se corner (thoroughfare) which is the furthest distance from a road in lower 48 at 20ish miles:

But da bears down that area are hangry, especially this time of year (hyperpaghia)

Moving slow today. Traffic has been a nightmare so I'm trying to avoid rush hour. One of the good things to come out of COVID has been a bit of flexibility in work hours.

I am itching to ride but trying to save my strength for the race on sunday. I don't know why, as I don't intend on winning, but just trying to stay loose and flexible rather than do anything strenuous.

I am buying ALL THE TOOLS to try and get the thing out of the thing, but it's stuck pretty good. I bought a dremel, which I need anyways, and will "rent" the bearing puller from amazon. I may also scoop up a heat gun, because that's something I actually need.

Ride night with the buds. Will be fun to ride with buddy who is visiting from Alberta. He complained about the humidity so much on Sunday. :rofl:

Bechler is an amazing little secret of the park, the fishing is legit around the falls, the trails are some of the most scenic in the park and there is literally zero traffic or lines.

"master" carpenter who replaced my outdoor garage door trim left me with much gap, many caulk to do around some of the edges. I should have really used some shims in the gaps. But I just wanted to try and seal up the edges before the deluge of rain that's forecast today and tomorrow. I'd have preferred to get the stuff all painted before weather hit :/

Hopefully you got it replaced with "fake" wood like the composite decking? I'd really like to get all of the wood trim on my house replaced with that composite shit...

Class done;w ent well. Got it done 1min over with time for Q&A. Then my internal fucking rolled me to my boss because the branding was our old branding (same logo, extra word). I downloaded that shit from our internal marketing system last week. It ain't my problem marketing is fucking behind.

MRI for my neck and shoulder later today.

Don't put it on the deck. It's fucking uninhabitable when it warms up outside. I'm going to have to put a fucking pergola on to keep it shaded and habitable.
