    Time to retire the Buck 110

    I like my Benchmade Steep Country. I bought it used a number of years ago. It holds an edge very well. That said, I also like my Victorinox Fibrox knives that get used for all the butchering. I would have no regrets having a Victorinox as my only field knife.

    Cast iron part II.

    I recovered one with a wire wheel. It had been sitting in the weather for quite a while before I got it. Cleaned up just fine.

    Kitchenaid Stand Mixer maintenance

    I use mine 1-2 times a week. I've been making bread weekly for 20 years and between that and a career working on a computer my wrists can't take kneading bread like they used to do the mixer is very welcome. My other big use is grinding meat. I bought an all stainless meat grinder attachment a...

    Car Insurance - (For 16 year-olds)

    Yep. It's expensive. We pay our kids' insurance as long as they are in school. They pay for gas.

    CO legislature affirms commitment to protecting federal public lands in the state.

    Interesting. I don't know that it really means anything but surely it is something to hold them to now that they've said it.

    Interesting verdict related to 2A

    There are cases where this has happened and the parents were held criminally responsible. Far more of these cases than fire arm related ones.

    Kitchenaid Stand Mixer maintenance

    I used super lube to do mine and I've found that it thins out a bit too much with use and can leak. I'll use some other food grade grease next time.

    Kitchenaid Stand Mixer maintenance

    I did mine a couple of months ago for the first time. It wasn't terrible. I did end up having to buy a couple of parts when I put it back together because they were worn. Totally worth doing if you're mechanically inclined.

    How heavy are your day packs?

    Yea, 25ish lbs sounds about right. Seems to feel heavier some days. I try every year to shed some weight but at this point the only way that is going to happen is either spend a ton of money buying ultralight stuff or leaving things behind that I feel are critical.

    Preoccupation with Score

    The only score I'm interested in is how much space in the freezer gets used up ;)

    Hunting Solo by choice or circumstance

    I hunt birds with a buddy when he can and solo when he can't. I hunt big game solo unless my son can come. So I guess I hunt solo by choice and not-solo when a select couple of individuals can come along. I have come to enjoy hunting with my son quite a bit. The first few years when he was...

    Corner crossing SCOTUS appeal

    Very true. However, if a corner is marked that's where it is....regardless of where the n'th surveyor puts it in a courtroom. There is liberal dose of "Intent" added when surveys don't quite math out....and that happens more often than some would think.

    Corner crossing SCOTUS appeal

    GIS = Get It Surveyed As with any map; it is a model of reality and as such prone to shape, distance or area errors.
