I do not. It was a great car, although I’m not sure it really fits the “rally” part of luxury rally car. I’d only had if for one summer when we relocated to California, so I didn’t get to experience...
I have a 2023 with Duramax. I've only had it a few months and ~3000 miles but so far very happy. No diesel-y loud noise or smell. It did make my garage a little stinky one time due to the...
Success not required
Does anyone know what, if anything, happened in Granite yesterday? I saw the SAR helicopter longlining a couple of guys into there yesterday around 1:30, then returning with a possibly different set...
And again today!
Wuzzat you on the Ranch lot shuttle talking to Chris F. around 1:15 or so? I should have said hi, but I wasn't sure it was you.
if you ain't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin'
I got a Tahoe with the duramax a couple months ago. I averaged around 27 mpg on a round trip from Jackson to southern BC with a big cargo box on top. From Teton Village into town and back it gets 30.
Yikes! Is that the top of Ashley Ridge?
Cotuit! 25+ years ago I had a house with a dock on North Bay. That's where I got my start fishing offshore.
We sold it to buy a house in Jackson, then moved to Jackson full time a few years later.
Whoa. Rontele re-emerges after 4 years as a tuna fisherman?
Where do you fish out of?
Did anyone else feel the earthquake? There was a 3.7 NNE of Tetonia at 4:21 this afternoon.
Last year we had "Larmie Bowl"
This year ...

I brought my camera along on a fishing trip for the first time in years. This was in the eastern Pacific - Chiapas, Mexico.
Day one I got some artsy (for me) shots on the way out:

I just saw this. I got the Evade 4.3 for kiteboarding in San Francisco bay. I haven't worn it for a couple years because I kite in Maui now, but I was really happy with it. Enough so that I got a 2.2...
Outstanding! Your dad is an inspiration.
So cool that you could surf Cloudbreak. One of the Namotu coaches got barreled wing foiling Cloudbreak, but the wing didn’t quite fit. Maybe I will...
I haven’t seen him in forever, but last winter I asked Duffy at TVS and he thinks Kurt is still around somewhere.
Thanks for the callout, but I’m still in Maui. Learning to kitesurf in real waves. We’ll be back in Jackson for opening day at the Village.
First winter swell of the season arrived in Maui yesterday. I got this picture this morning around 7:30 -- it's Kanaha Lowers, which is usually pretty sleepy. There were probably twice as many folks...
Back when the sportfishing community was figuring out circle hooks for billfish, one of the things people learned was that “offset” circle hooks — meaning the point is not in line with the hook’s...
Have you tried or are you using circle hooks?
Back in the day 20+ years ago we mostly used J-hooks when dead-bait fishing for billfish (sailfish especially), and had very high rates of gut hooking...
Aw Frozen, I'm so sorry. I wish I was there to bring you a mocha.
If you are into the winging, you should check out this guy's YouTube channel "JD FollowCam"

There's so much winger peer pressure on Maui. I don't...
Is Rondo retired?

My wife and I went on a kitesurfing trip to Fiji, but the wind didn’t blow very much, so we had to do other stuff. Fished one morning and caught this...
Welp, I went out and paddled/got pushed into some waves this morning. Stood up on the first try! So maybe that’s in my future too.
But holy shit paddling a surfboard is no joke.
Carnage today! My wife fell on the rail of the foilboard and bruised a rib. Got her all situated then I went for another go. Board popped up and hit me in the mouth. Chipped a tooth.
Once we get...
We figure prone surfing is beyond us, but we just had tow-foil lesson #2. Trying to become a waterman at age 60!
Namotu. First time here. Absolutely loving it.
It’s too bad the wind isn’t cooperating, because I was really hoping to work up to kiting at Lefts, but so it goes. Day one we kited for a couple of...
468570I’m not a surfer, but my wife & I got to watch for about an hour this morning. Super-cool wave. Apparently this wasn’t very big.
We’re in Fiji to kitesurf, but the wind isn’t really...
I’m in Maui right now. My wife & I are noobs — we’ve owned a home here for two years but only lived here full time since March — but here’s my viewpoint on what it’s like here.
There is a lot of...
My neighbor sent us a photo that makes it seem the banyan tree is not-destroyed. But if true that’s the only good news from Lahaina. All the other pictures we’ve seen are horrifying.
We’re on the north shore, basically upwind of all the fires, and you wouldn’t know anything is going on without tv or the internet. UPS truck just delivered a package to my neighbor. Planes are...
Saw this in my Apple News feed:

That sounds familiar. I think I might have made that user group 15 years ago. Not surprising it doesn’t work anymore.
Yeah. "Shroom Booties" by Ceci Granata. Here's the inside of the booklet:466057
Nope. They have independent artists that they work with and revenue share. When I talk to Eric about the company he seems to be genuinely interested in helping the artists find avenues to earn money...
I don't know a cone from a rolling booklet, but my nephew's cool, and their artwork is cool, and I get a kick out of their Instagram.

Did you get title insurance?
Come on man. There was a run on a bank. The Feds shut down the bank. One of the bank's directors complains that the bank was fine and didn't need to be shut down. You take the bank director's...
The short answer is yes - maybe even better - but it’s pretty unknown and we like it that way. My friend & I have had a boat there for over a decade, and 99% of the time we’ve been the only boat...
Never mind. We decided it's too much boat for what we need.
It was fun looking it over, though. The builder, Ritchie Howell, is a friend, so he flew out to meet us in Cabo and look the boat over....
The boat's in San Jose del Cabo. It's maybe for sale and my fishing partner and I are maybe going to make an offer on it. We just went to Cabo for a day to see & run the boat. Lots of maybes, but if...
I went for a ride on this rig today. 62 foot 2010 Ritchie Howell with giant engines. She hit 44 knots. Total beast.

I can only think it was too dangerous to install them. Or they were happy for it to sink
It’s off the reef! And they didn’t drag it very far. Apparently it sank in the channel between Maui & Molokai!
