  1. I cannot speak for SF as I do not ski or monitor it regularly but Taos already has had a few significant snowfalls and has nice base on its ridge and upper slopes ….I do not remember Taos having this good of a base this early in this decade. Taos also has some of the best snow making ability in the business and can get their whole front side Main blue runs open without any natural snow so a good option only 1.5 to 2 hours away if SF conditions are not good Kachina Peak today

    https://www.skithelemmon.com/ Mt. Lemmon is actually a small local ski hill....Ive never skied it, but we did visit in the summer once and it was scenic and as Mach 1 indicated, would be good for a hike...
  3. Amen I’m looking forward to some quiet time this weekend. Good luck!
  4. Corsicana - Lefty Frizzell, BIlly Joe Shaver
  5. This gal blows me away - originality pours out of her
  6. I’m not sure the above video works so here is a bonus photo to keep the ski vibes going....
  7. Me too! (My vid but let’s go!) IMG_3148.MOV
  8. Starck Club match detail
  9. I feel fortunate to have experienced the Dallas Club Scene in the early 80’s to early 90’s during my college and post college party years. Early memories of Confettis, On the Air, Video Bar, Tangos (dancing frogs on the roof), and then the Starck Club came along and became arguably the most cutting edge and electic club that Dallas and all of Texas for that matter has ever had (I remember ecstasy was sold at the bar and the colorful characters that always hung out in the Bathroom lobby and the random crazy videos in the restrooms) Then Deep Ellum revived as I remember when it was only Club Dada and Club Clearview (I attended the initial keg parties In the original building that eventually evolved into Club Clearview after they got an official liquor license). Knox Street Pub (playing pool in back room), Stans Blue Note, Stoneleigh P, the ultra preppy Boardwalk Beach Club near SMU, 2826 in deep Ellum was rocking in the early 90’s during Texas OU weekend. Borrowed Money on Central and Cowboys on Garland Road for your urban cowboy “meat market” I know I’m missing many but it is a start photos below of Entrance to Starck Club and a few match boxes I collected over the years
  10. I’m not sure about Walt Garrison...very possible but I know for a fact Donny Gay (8 time PRCA bull riding champ) got his start there.
  11. Since this thread has expanded into Arlington, I submit Old Kow Bell Rodeo in a Mansfield...1959 -2004 - demolished around 2005 now Mansfield Legacy High school sits where Kow Bell once stood. At the time, the only indoor Rodeo in the world to have rodeos every Sat night year round. In Junior High our parents would drop us off for the Saturday night rodeo not knowing that we were actually entering the junior steer riding...My short Bull riding career ended with a kick to my chin that required stitches which ruined our whole gig when all the parents found out
  12. Those are cool! Super skills
  13. Speaking of Johnny Marr greatness...
  14. How about a song driven by the bass guitar? Johnny Marr's greatness combined with a relentless bass🔥...
  15. 😀just noticed my error - Beauty and Essex-it’s 420 here
  16. In Vegas now...Definitely hopping last night after the UFC fight I’m a poor judge of busy because it’s been over 7 yrs since Ive been here. Our Uber driver said it was average busy in his opinion_ he said the busiest since covid was back in April when the Asian boy band BTS was here. Friday night was Absinthe - fun show. Last night Morrissy , Chris Rock tonight. Dining highlights so far are Beauty and Sussex and Lotus of Siam. Only negative I have thus far is getting my ass handed to me at the craps table:)
  17. MURMUR 1983
  18. Anyone have some good jelly/jam or other recipes? They are not ripe yet but I have heard of some folks using green grapes....
  19. We built our pens at 36' diameter circles - large enough to not have our feeders throw too close to fence to tempt the hogs or cows to lean over or try to get under and fuck up the hog wire. We had a few very athletic cows that could hurdle the 36" hog wire so we went with electric fence on top to curtail the jumping bastards.
  20. These are large feeder pens and we did 5 of them and yes, there is sporadic limestone about 5-6" beneath the surface that we hit on about 1 out of 5....Not pictured is the rock drill we use prior to setting the posts....Yes, my hunting partner is an engineer so spray paint is a requirement-haha! We also string the top of the fence with electric wire to keep the cows from messin with the pen..
  21. We used a 20 gal, 225 psi air compressor and a regular small generator - 4000 kva I think....See below the requirements - looks like 70 psi minimum https://www.rohrermfg.com/post-drivers/98e-basic-man-saver-t-post-driver/
  22. Lats are low on my priority list at this point in my illustrious and well lived life. I'm really into the art of how to work smarter, not harder...Im a slow learner but catching on pretty quick now😄
  23. Well I tried to post a vid but failed so here is a photo...
