Well the sun is finally out, but god damn it’s windy. Supposed to get to 65 tomorrow. Go home Mother Nature u drunk
The ski hills around here barely have any snow on them. Also, there is a funky smell in our kitchen since we got back from vacation earlier this week but still can't find the culprit. 2019 is not off to a good start. WTF.
upstairs carpets getting cleaned because they’re filthy...much picking up and de-christmasing of the house last night.
gonna take the 8yo and go check out some new trails and mebbe dig a bit...

Apparently there is a good place for poke near by. Definitely need to try some SLC tacos while we're here, as well.
Gloriously slept in. A storm is rolling in and the wind is kicking up. NWS posted a high wind advisory for winds of 40 mph here in town and 65 in the hills on top of the rain. I will hit the trainer and home gym today, fvck riding in that shit.
excellent coffee was consumed and a lap surfing dog session was had this morning

Second time swimming laps in years, doubled my last distance and hit 2000 yards.
Go to the old Sears building on 600 S. And state street.
.75 cent goodness.
holy shitski the wind is really screaming. just moved the truck and camper out to the pad in the front of the house away from the two big redwoods out back. I don't need to repair any damage from flying tree limbs
Yep, raining like a mofo here. It'd be a foot of snow if it was cold out. Anyway, I did 1:40 on the KICKR. I am loving that thing. You know, as riding a stationary bike indoors goes.
I finished the second season of Westworld, then had to promptly read the Wikipedia entry to figure wtf just happened.

well damn, the trails i checked out were legit with tons of potential for more. lots of big gullies and a bunch of jumps already built. apparently there are more xc-ish trails on other parts of the property. when it’s all done and open, it’s gonna be a major addition to a metro area that has a lot of trails already. will def be back to dig and ride.

Rode quite a few hours, surface was nice ice/snow, thought the warm weather might soften it up, but it didn't.
Name, ya bastid.
Ordered myself a 4wt packable fly rod set up for small streams. I have a 4 piece 9ft 5/6wt set up from the same maker that I really like.
The Shu Fly Trout Travel Kit Rod is a 7' 6" (229 cm), 6 Piece, 4 weight ultra-light travel fly rod. The rod blank is an IM-8 Graphite. It has a progressive moderate taper and is medium weight. The rods cork grip is AAA quality cork. The rods stripping guide is Fuji manufactured and double wrapped epoxy coated. The double foot snake guides are black coated stainless steel and the tip top is oversized. The reel seat is hardwood insert. The rods butt is machined aluminum for lightness and corrosion resistance. The recommended fly lines for this rod are weight forward 4 floating or 4 weight double tapered.
The Shu Fly Graphite 3/4 Fly Reel is a lightweight graphite fly reel. Corrosion proof graphite construction spool is made with stainless steel hardware (drag plate) and one way pin bearings for a wide range smooth drag. The counterbalanced and ported spool is also able to be reversed to either left or right-handed retrieve. Reel is set up for left handed retrieval. The rod and reel come with a black embroidered Cordura carry case.

Went riding... breaking trail on hilly terrain, with soft wet snow and post holes from hikers is difficult work. Eventually found some other packed trails but couldn't go much further due to the dumb sun setting at 4pm.
Now for sushi and beer(s).
Fun ride though. Oops.

There are no names, just carts!. Just look for the Sears.
The rain stopped, guess I'm getting in the hot tub after all
hot tubbing in the pouring rain or heavy snow with a cold beer is the best way to hot tub
It's only snowed once here... On November 15th. It hasn't even been consistently cold enough for the trails to freeze.
Used to be a really good greek deli/gyro place off of Broadway near State St. Been a couple years since I've been back to SLC, so maybe it's not there any more. Wasn't too far from the bar all the TDY airline employees used to go get tanked, back in the day when Utah had the whole "membership" bullshit, airline ID would get you in. RIP, Port of Call.

My great aunt is back in the hospital. Pneumonia never cleared up, she has fluid around her lungs, and her kidneys are failing.
