Checked bank account this morning, still not enough zeros, so here I am at work.
Scrapped beach camping for the weekend due to weather, heading for the desert instead.

What is fun is walking the dog and coming around a blind corner to see someone with a cat on a leash.
Parenting is hard. Realizing you're doing a poor job and that there are things you can change is pretty powerful. It's never too late...wish you the best.

Eastern or Lexington style ?
Way too nice out to be indoors. Gonna hit Thuper Awethum since I haven’t ridden it since last summer. Yay bicycle !
That is all
OMG, it's cheap here, and people in restaurants/etc actually get paid OK. It's definitely less poor than Perú and other countries outside of urban and truly rural poverty. Thing are clean, air is good, fairly impressed in that way.
An example is that a grilled filet Mignon, potatoes, veggies, salad, and a drink is like, $14.00. This plate of baby ribs was $6.63.
This huge plate of fried fish was $4.50.
We are in a tourist town as well (Solenta, up in coffee country).

They call those dudes here "pequeños occidentales" or 'little Westys'.
You should ask him.
I hear he has a basement full of inventory.

You found it *by* accident!

My old man was sorta like that, now I do work that he says I have gone too far and I call his stuff sub par. Still, having an unsupportive parent sucks the big one, so if you can sort that out you will both be better people because of it.
I told one of our apprentices to get a new job, he was getting hammered with negativity at work then going home to his mum doing the same thing. He was a nice kid but other people were making his life difficult for no real reason.
Now he's making $10/h more than me, and he's studying a second trade then going for an engineering course in the coming year.
why do you hare regional colloquialisms? i bet you don't even cut on the lights when it gets dark...You found it *by* accident!
My father was an abusive alcoholic and drug user; the abusive stopped sometime in (junior?) high school when he went after me and I took him down.
YES YES YES YESYou found it *by* accident!
this sentence needs fixed.
Maybe I have a hare up my butt?
Pretty much planned on saying the same thing. It's all about balance and the fact that you had this realization now and want to make a change will mean so much to him too!
Cabral de Melo Neto:
At the end of a melancholy world
men read the newspapers.
Indifferent men eating oranges
that flame like the sun.
They gave me an apple to remind me
of death. I know that critics telegraph
asking for kerosene. The veil I saw flying
fell in the desert.
No one will write the final poem
about the private twelve o'clock world.
Instead of the last judgement, what worries me
is the final dream.

Afternoon. Getting ready for band rehearsal...gotta practice a couple of stupid high piccolo riffs and then make some dinner. Youngest got her top braces on today and it's payday so that worked out nicely!
At least it's not FTS^12, amirite??
Took a short tour on Molas Pass after a trip down to Durango to get skins since I forgot mine
and enjoyed the death-zipper-crust on the down which made turning all but impossible. 
On the bright side - it's currently vomiting snow here in town.
I was going to get skins in Silverton, but the backcountry gear shop is only open on Monday. 
We had a young bloke ask about a job today, he was proudly sporting a cap with a nice big weed leaf front and centre, hahaha!
Yelled at an obnoxious Sasquatch on an e-bike with an over-the-top-loud sound system who kept catching up to me after I would drop him on the downhills. Must have been @kidwoo’s bro in law. Somewhere there’s a line backer complaining that some fast old dude yelled at him and hurt his feel feels.
My Dad was like this when he was around.
That sucks. Look. I realize this is easier said than done, but work hard to not be negative with the kid. It stays with them. Your relationship with your children is much longer as adults than when they are children. They will do shit that will drive you crazy, maybe do the shit that you see in yourself that you don't like, and that is hard to see. Bu they need space to grow, to fucking blow it, and learn how to fix it. It can't be done in a vacuum, or by you talking at them, or in a negative way. Work your ass off to do it in a way that is not judging or blaming. We may think we know what is best for kids. We don't. We need to help them figure out what works for them.
Awesome ride today. Met some dude who just moved out here from C'ville. Worked in one of the shops I used to frequent and knows a bunch of my old riding buddies, fun to chat about "the good old days".
At first he was shocked I was able to keep up with him on a hardtail. Then I went first on the next descent and dropped him like a 10mm socket.

I used to enjoy riding the local super busy XC trails on 2.1" slicks.
One day a dude looked at my bike and asked how I got to where I was, obviously you can't ride shit XC trail on a hardtail with slicks.......
Some people still seem to think that a hardtail is a useless bike, it's weird.
Up-selling is powerful.
Just like how everyone needs 4 wheel drive so they can drive plowed and salted roads when it snows and a half mile of maintained dirt roads to get to trailheads.
My wife would get sick of waiting for me if I rode a hard tail.
Yes. Got this from the boat store, because I live close to the boat store.
But you could make your own!
It helps a lot that the rocks here are all nice and round. Thank you glaciers.
