This is a bad post for one of my friends. You know who you are – please stop reading now. I installed water filters on my house water supply line. I’m not a clean freak or germophobe but living for some years in my motorhome showed me how unclean water can be. The following is… [Read More]
Record Steps for Single Day!
For those that are into recording your walking steps per day, check this out! A new personal best! Maybe even a world record!! Funny thing is, about all I recall doing on this day was sitting on the tractor working on the airstrip…. Odd…
Touchy Feely Nonsense
One of my sister’s has been demanding a touchy-feely post – so blame her for this…. What is going on… I’ve spent this winter around Truth or Consequences (T or C), NM. Not because T or C is the warmest place I could find or because there is a huge population of beautiful, wealthy, single… [Read More]
Annual RV Water Filter Change
I suspect most people would change their RV water filters during the warm summer months. Not me!! I do mine in the winter. Why? Because I am not the brightest bulb on the planet! No other reason. As you’ve probably seen from my water system diagram, I have a total of five water filters. As… [Read More]
The Wonders of a Cold Shower
I had two friends visit me a weekend or two ago. Both of these fellows are hearty enough but, sadly, fairly domesticated. I had almost forgotten what it was like… The shower in Missy is plenty “usable.” However; when boondocking, there is no hot water. This is because I just haven’t gotten any further in… [Read More]
Bright Lights in Your Eyes
I wear glasses. I’ve worn them since the fifth grade. I don’t like them. I’ve worn contacts since late in high school. They are better than glasses but still a nuisance. Of course, I have some astigmatism so I get the more expensive contacts. Back when I had a wife, picking out glasses wasn’t quite… [Read More]
An apple is trying to kill me!
Yes, an apple is out to kill me… I’ve told a couple people this tale of woe and very few believe me. This is a true story. I’ve eaten apples my whole life. A few years ago, I ate one just like normal. I don’t remember what kind it was – probably a green one… [Read More]
Hiking… without a bike???
Today I tried something different. Instead of going for a bike ride on the Colorado Trail, I went hiking instead. It actually turned out to be very enjoyable! Hiking the steep, rocky climbs were so much easier without having to push a 30 pound bicycle up the hill!! I know… I know…. I am supposed… [Read More]
Two Year Cycling Accident Update – Shattered Humerus
On this day, two years ago, October 4, 2014, my life took a drastic change. That was the day of my cycling accident. The surgeons notes say: “Left distal humerus fracture. Highly comminuted. Open fracture.” This means the elbow end (distal) of my left upper arm bone (humerus) was badly shattered (highly comminuted) and bone… [Read More]
DANGER: Wet Paper Towel
Yes, some people can injure themselves with a wet paper towel. Trust me, I realize that it is a VERY shocking fact. No amount of warnings and training can save these folks. I see it repeated over and over again on various forums. I fell off a ladder. I dropped a hammer on my foot…. [Read More]
