Careful! Might be feral!

That thing would vacate the whole campground!

Perfect pitch is when you throw an accordion into a dumpster and it lands on a banjo.

@Pivo
Yup! It's the best way to have a quiet camp. Play your banjo, and neighboring camps will be quickly vacated.

@Pivo stay away from my camp!

I've lost track of when the new transcanyon pipeline is supposed to be finished. Do you know?

@LosDosSloFolks I took the photos in 2017, while moving to Oregon. I sent them to Joe at the time. We got stranded in Redding for several days, waiting for Siskiyou Pass to be safe for driving an ancient class C motorhome over it. (It was terrifying even after it opened.) Do I wish I'd stayed in Or...

But do you know where this is?




Yes, @Chumley I know you can google. But have you eaten there?

@GrangerGuy
I looked it up. Yes, he was in Seattle, I sent several pairs to him over the years. And yes, he has retired, and the shop is now closed.

@Alston_Neal
I read they took it down.

@hikeaz
I read that, also, which led me down a rabbit hole of reading about the search and the finding of Mallory

No more need for caution. Suspect in custody.

Whoa news to me! I've used Dave Page several times, although it was at least 10 years ago, the last time.

you'll find asbestos instead @big_load Only if I'm looking. I don't seem to have caught the rockhounding bug. I have a friend out in Golden Shores/Topock who is an avid rock hunter, makes jewelry, etc. For myself, I don't want to collect more material things, (unless they fall into the category of ...

@Nighthiker I don't know but I can ask around. I never hear about people going rock-hounding around here. I think if there were semi-precious stones I would have heard about it at some point. [Edit] I Googled it and it said that it is found on the San Carlos reservation but not in the Springerville...

@Nighthiker
Are there additional roads featured that weren't in first edition?

@Nighthiker
Thanks for posting this! I just submitted a materials request to the Flagstaff library to purchase it. Hope they do.
[EDIT: I already received an email that they will purchase the book!!]

@chumley
Well and also in addition to my previous response, it looks like the Flagstaff giant snowstorm with 18 in is going to be almost a complete dud.

I've been watching the Flagstaff railfan webcam today. (Main webcam is off.) Not a lot of snow, maybe more than two inches. The visible street and parking lot have a lot of black showing. At one point I saw people lugging suitcases through the snow. I'm guessing Amtrak was late (again).

@chumley We've been up to 74 miles an hour so far. No, it isn't too uncommon. I recall when I lived here before that it got up to about a hundred miles an hour one time. This time around, I moved here last April, so the very windy period was over with. I'm not sure if this wind storm is normal or d...
