• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Do you have a vegetable garden &/or grow any Fruit trees? What time & effort do you put into it, and what do you grow?

    My (very) limited experience with fruit trees is that production can vary widely from one season to another. And, sometimes, they just "time-out". A heavy fruit production can leave little energy to produce buds for the following season.......

    My Snowbird neighbor would get potted cherry tomatoes from another neighbor each year. They would pass them on to me when they left town for the summer. It was amazing how many tomatoes we could harvest from a couple of potted plants. Just required daily water but eventually succumbed to the...

    300 miles in temps over 105 with low humidity ... dangerous

    A few years back I rode in a group that included 2 Arizona Motorcycle police officers. They rode in some very extreme weather when on duty. I asked one of them what tricks they used to stay ahead of heat related issues. They made regular stops at convenience type stores that had walk-in...

    I got lucky, weather-wise, transiting your part of the country. Drove through after the extreme heat and before the extreme wet. But traffic-wise, driving through the SLC area is one of my least favorite places. I routinely go East at Spanish Fork up the canyon to 89 and south to Kanab. Much...

    It's always a good thing to spend time with friends. I did a lot of visiting this summer while in the Pacific Northwest. At my age, I treat each visit like it will be the last time. And, all too often, that happens. Each of the last two summers I attended life celebrations for very close...

    WOW! We got a very loud, flashing thunderstorm (monsoon) last night between 9 and 10PM. Lots of rain. There is another monsoon storm expected tonight and through most of tomorrow. That'll cool things down, which is good. But it also brings flooding to local canyons. Some of the flash...

    Got back to the desert about noon today after 2 months and 3 weeks away from home. The only thing that comes to mind about the weather is that I have to re-learn sweating. Stay safe..... Jim

    After 3 years of planning, I am riding Route 66 starting June 8

    Good pictures. I'm actually staying in a motel on old Route 66 in Flagstaff, AZ tonight. The road runs adjacent to the college campus. This weekend is something called Parents Weekend at the college. The town is full and traffic is bumper to bumper. It doesn't feel very "historic" right now.

    Been on the road the last few days so haven't checked in. Tomorrow, I'll be home in the desert. My last night road-tripping is spent in Flagstaff, AZ. That puts me less than 3 hours from home. I like to arrive mid-afternoon at the latest. Need to get the utilities up and running and the house...

    Good advice about the heat, @Little Blue. Every year dozens and dozens of people die from heat related problems in the Phoenix area. It's not something to be taken lightly, especially for us older folks. This morning in Anacortes it's mostly cloudy with the sun poking through a little...
