Dirty_habiT Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 I did a lot of driving over the weekend. We left last Wednesday, camped at Caprock Canyon SP in the panhandle of TX. That's ~8h drive from Austin, TX. We camped at Sugarite Canyon SP in NM Thursday night. That was a 5h drive from Caprock. Garden of The Gods Friday afternoon/sunset time (fucking awesome btw). 3h drive from Sugarite. AirBNB in Colorado Springs Friday night. Saturday morning head to the summit of Pike's Peak - 1h drive. Camped on Pike's Peak Saturday night w/ bigfoot. Watched PPIHC 2019 Sunday morning-afternoon. Carlin Dunne passed away on the mountain. He was a Ducati rider. There are videos on youtube that he filmed from the weekend/practice , pretty sad. Sunday evening drove to Raton, NM to stay in a hotel. Showered and slept in a bed, this is very nice after dealing with camping restrooms/showers/beds. Monday morning, woke up early and drove 12h from Raton, NM to Austin, TX.... fuckkkkkk that's a drive. Glad to be back in Austin. Missed the dog, water changed one of the aquariums because it decided to do some stupid shit while I was gone and go to 1.018 SG salinity. It should be 1.024-1.026 for shit to be happy. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Spent a few hours clearing brush and heavy undergrowth, dropped 3 pounds or about 1/2 gallon of sweat. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 @One Man Bannedany tips for killing saplings without harsh chemicals? I've got several spots I want to clear, but are dominated by poplars from 1 -10 years old. Dropping them is easy, but they seems to shoot water sprouts up as quick as I can cut them down. I want their roots to stay for erosion purposes until I can replant with growth I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you likely already know it's a batlle after that. As far as erosion any grasses or tall weeds should help keep shit in place unless you're dealing with loose soil or a slope.

Dirty_habiT Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 * Pulled a 2JZ out of a 2005 IS300 at the yard. Car wasn't in the yard for 4 days before I got it. * Bought a Kubota B5100 tractor for use on our lake property. I intend to build some dirt jumps for BMX and use it for gardening. I'm also going to turbo it w/ a RHB31 like we did my friend's Kubota G4200. * Drank a beer at a party with people my age. It was totally wild. * Aired up all the bicycles (4x BMX's) and did a little ride yesterday with my brother and our girlfriends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteraven Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I'd rather chew on glass than subject myself to karaoke. But maybe just me. Kind of like the real like awake version of that dream where you didn't study for the test and suddenly realize you're also sitting at the desk naked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimer Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Took the kids camping down the beach, had a half assed attempt at fishing but ended up mostly just drinking beers round the fire and building sand castles 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 hey man sorry I havent gotten around to posting those zines I will Im promise but the combo of getting stamp and post office and me is a bit chaotic soemtimes. where do you go camping - I'm unlikely to know it but it looks mad! assuming that WA has space galore for empty beaches.

Schnitzel Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 went to check if this was a good spot for photography/possibly getting a panel done. one hour drive each way on a sunday morning no bueno but needs must.... rain was relentless and it turned out train was running late so I had to leave without even seeing it maybe next week.

aimer Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 @SchnitzelNo worries at all man! I know life can get in the way sometimes haha. Gotten a few good zines lately so those have kept me going, the more I look the more local ones are popping up which is cool. We're pretty lucky in WA, pretty much 1hrs drive north or south of Perth and you've got awesome coast line to 4x4 and camp on and it only gets better the further you go. This spot was only about 40 mins from my place which makes it easy to knock off work on a Friday arvo and head down for an overnighter Took the drone for a spin while we were out there too 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Looks sweet! down here in SA there's lots of coastline like that but a bit further out of town. I don't own a 4x4 so go onto the sand rarely but that looks mad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty_habiT Posted July 22, 2019 Author Share Posted July 22, 2019 My weekend started a little early since I took some PTO, I'm fuckin sacked today for it though. Thursday - swam @ Hamilton Pool Preserve. This place is so small/cool that you must book reservations months in advance.... even for a weekday. Friday - Picked up a motorcycle hauler from U-Haul for weekend dirt bike riding. Saturday - Rode @ Hidden Falls in Marble Falls, TX in the morning time until I felt like it was time for a sweet heat stroke, then we left. Sunday - Went and saw Lion King, I think it was ok. I don't have kids and I'm really kinda too old to watch this movie. I appreciated it, the animation was pretty amazing. Went to ride Emma Long Metropolitan park after the movies, so we got 2 days of riding dirt bikes in this weekend. After we rode at Emma Long, we went out to my friend's property in Bastrop and welded some supports into his mower deck on his tractor because it had rotted through. I rode my dirt bike on the trails there though while my girlfriend was doing the welding. Lol, I dunno how to weld, she does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteraven Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Saturday - mowed the lawn (about 4.5 acres) - work (designing tees for an upcoming collab) Sunday - drive through car wash - costco - more work - nice dinner at a lodge on the lake with my wife’s family that came to visit. Place was jam packed since the weather is amazing and there’s an outside bar / pool / hot tub and marina. fantasized about getting a boat for about 3 minutes until looking up what these things cost. (Assuming they must be financed for a lot longer than the average car). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
