With my new “forestry” job, I concluded (several weeks ago) that I needed a chainsaw. When I was young, our winter heat was exclusively from a wood burning stove. That was in Montana so plenty of heat was needed. That means that plenty of firewood was needed. Yep, I spent more time in the forest… [Read More]
Review: Cottonwood RV Park Bluff Utah

Battery Watering System
A battery watering system for a motorhome or RV with a large battery bank can be very useful tool! I have four 6 volt house batteries in my motorhome, JBAM.

Review: Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort
My travels took me to Las Vegas, NV last week. Not for vacation but for work. I decided to stay at the Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort which is just a bit south of McCarran Airport. Getting into the resort is very easy. It is just off the I-15 and the turn lanes are extremely wide…. [Read More]

My first few fly fishing trips were with boots and neoprene stockings. That felt just fine. The days were hot and getting into that cool water felt great. However; my mentor went and ruined it for me. He talked me into trying a pair of his waders one day… Yup, we both know what happens… [Read More]
Yakima Kayak Rack

Review: BearExtender PC Wifi Booster
There are several wifi booster options available of enhancing your wifi signal range. Keep in mind I am discussing wifi here and not cellular data.
