At dentist with kids for their checkup.
Exciting stuff this morning, trash run.
Rode early, trying to beat rain and crowds. Was kinda nasty - cold, foggy, wet, muddy. I should rake some more leaves before the precipitation arrives.
What's this half day nonsense
worked late; slept in; coffee nao
We had actual real rain last night. first time in 7 months and its going to do it again tomorrow. Time to turn off the lawn sprinklers (for this week anyhow). Espresso then start getting the truck ready to head to Mt Lassen . going camping for my 64th birthday. Have to dig out the snowshoes camper window and door insulation from the shed. Might go ride if I have time.
Was going to go up today. Woke up early, checked forecast. Another 4-8 today/tonight at monarch. Popped a muscle relaxer, went back to bed. Looks like tomorrow is my first powfluenza day of the season.
Late to bed, early to rise. Struck out trying to find 6' lengths of 1" dowel. Didnt think that was such a tall order.
Passed someone on the highway driving full tilt on a flat tire. Smoking pretty good, but apparently they gave no shits and continued plodding along. Sure. If that works for you.

I see that all the time. they are clueless that the tire has gone flat until the belt separates and the tire shreds and the rotor hits the ground. At that point they might pull over.
Just finished the leaves when the rain started. They were still wet from the snow we got a few days ago, raking and mulching was no fun.
Just go into the lodge for a few min...
Oh, wait.
On the "spending money like a drunken pirate" front: just bought a new (to me) Mazda. Thanks, Oba^H^H^H@Pesqueeb.
Went to drive for a ride and found a flat rear passenger snow tyre on our scoobie doo. No idea if it can be plugged, otherwise four new snow tyres required 
You're close enough to the wear bars that it seems time for new ones anyway.Went to drive for a ride and found a flat rear passenger snow tyre on our scoobie doo. No idea if it can be plugged, otherwise four new snow tyres required

If it has legal tread that can be fixed as its in the middle of the tire. sidewall area nope, but that's just a hole with no chunks, Quite Fixable.
2PM concert is kinda weird, but I'm about to get all nostalgic. I heard Bad Religion the first time right around this time of year 1985 (freshman in high school). It changed me for the better. The music and lyrics were so next level. Still are after 40 damn years at it. Crazy.
drove through that park.....nice....
no white stuff...

Had a 35 dollar steak for dinner. Man, it was awesome. Wife had the spiced ahi tuna. I used my $35 holiday meal credit I got from work but I had to chip in another $65. Fortunately, I had a gift card that covered that balance.
I felt like kind of a dick cashing in a gift card during the pandemic with restaurants hurting, but I did some reading and The Internet told me using them is encouraged. I did leave a cash tip. Any guilt I was feeling vanished when I walked in to get my take out order and the place was busy as hell.

I had a whole bunch of saved gift cards from races and stuff and when my family came up last year I used them with my parents and brother for several days.
Sure enough, one of those businesses went out of business in the Spring due to Covid.
That was a great set. They have so many songs to draw from, it's funny to hear them talk about relearning songs they haven't played in 30+ years.
One of these days I might get organized. Just spent an hour tracking down my winter gear for Lassen, ok over half that time was spent tracking down where the hell I last saw Ruth's Goretex Gaiters. Found them in a back cabinet of the camper instead of with the rest of the snow gear in the storage shed. But I now know where all my camping shit is in the garage and in the shed so there is that.
Stoney, what lifts were you skiing on? I was up with wife and elder two kids. Cats were looking after the baby at home. Yuna can do Cranmer now—still wedge but smooth. Mariko regressed and her upper body is super rigid but she got better.
We encountered bad but tolerable lift lines all day save for at Olympia/Looking Glass. Those lines were just stupidly long. We took Looking Glass out of there and noted to stay away from the Alice in Wonderland-named trails.
