Rocky Mountain oysters, my good man...I was thinking this would be the testicles of an animal
Right? Cowboys love a mouthful of balls. This was covered in the documentary Brokeback Mountain.
Replacing the furnace and ac as they are 40 years old. Not in a big hurry as the still work. Have a couple of quotes. One guy has disqualified himself by not giving us the unit specs and wants to charge us more for a lower end unit than the other guys higher end. Reeks of a used car salesman type of guy. Wife is raking him over the coals. I'm just enjoying watching her rip him a new one.
Same shit at work. At least it's low 90s as opposed to 103 yesterday.

Prep to replace the sliding door has taken an unwelcomed turn. Bottom 5" of the king and jack studs on one side are crumbling. Not insurmountable by any means, just means it'll take longer and be more invasive.

This is cool, the two mountain bikers going to the Olympics for Canada are from where I do most of my biking. Its a cool spot.
Guys.....my baby is all grown up! In just under 3 hours she will walk across the stage and graduate high school. It is SO surreal. I feel like we were just on here with Echo taking bets as to when she would be born and now she's 18 and graduating. Man....it's amazing.

Love that they are siblings too.....Go Team Canada!
Well bore hole is currently at 120’ and no bedrock as of yet, looks like I will have steel casing for nearly all of the well depth.

Getting asked again about numbers in an email chain that’s contained the numbers since late 2023 with multiple confirmations that the numbers haven’t changed.

Had a nice little thunderstorm this morning. Was about 6 hours earlier than the forecast said, but I’ll take it. 1.3” makes for happy crops.
Smashed the shit out of my thumb. Oopsy.

True, who knows what the world is going to look like after the civil war.
I am not so sure about the trendy part. Last time I was there in the span of 5 minutes I saw two different dudes wearing embroidered jeans.
Rode with @Bunnista on some unfamiliar trails. She got there late so I took a ride, noticed a maybe 20' steep roller with a little bit of a stepup on the top. When we repeated. I hit the stepup and roller, realizing on the way down that it inded in maybe a 15' flat straight into a 90 degree turn. I went down hard, gouging right forearm and knee.
We finished the ride and I decided to go to the Mad Taco for food and drink. Bartender was an attractive skinny tattooed woman. she took to talking about new ink on her arm with another customer. I said here's my new ink and raised the injured arm. She recoiled, but got the joke.

Has not rained here in WNC in two weeks, at least within a few miles of house. Trails are dust.Inch and a half of rain over the past two days. Dis some trail work yesterday afternoon.
Last time I was there, I found hipster coffee shops and bike shops in the basement of houses.. Tacoma used to be magnitudes sketchier!
It doesn't even smell bad anymore
I have not. But I heard it sucks. All the trails around here suck. The only trails worth riding in Washington are up in Bellingham. Tell everyone you know.
I am done mid next week.
My last time sheet entry was signed off with "One week to go, one week to go, yay"!
And there was some whining about stupid procedures.
yeah...looked kinda like wilson creek here...that place sucks too. i help spread the word.
well is complete,
200' overall
100' of 6" steel casing
120' of 4" PVC perf sitting on bedrock
80' of 4" PVC liner in the casing
130' static water level
55 GPM as of now
100 ppm of TDS

You should price it out with Fed and whatever local incentives exist. Might make sense just on finances.
wifey ran the numbers. She has a set budget. we are working within those parameters. given that I would let the old system run until it died, she has other plans. She makes the $$ and will get what she wants. I'm just along for the ride
as it is the max our utility bill gets in the summer is $300 a month and it drops to $100 in the winter.
in two weeks all the exterior walls are going to get blow in insulation. The house was built in 1971 and had no wall insulation and R9 in the ceiling (ceiling is now R30) and the house is only 1650 sq feet

Should have said rock face, not roller.
Ruth ran the numbers. the Electrical cost in our area is high. heat pumps only work on electrical. It would cost us more to have one than the traditional setup
