    .....go out and make this season the best season of your life. Ski that line, take that trip, slide that rail, make that leap, live for the moment, and make memories with friends that’ll last a lifetime, because as a great man once said, “If you don’t do it this year, you’ll be one year older when you do.”

    Have been riding the bikes as frequently as we can, knowing I can be called back out at any moment.

    It's been fun, not to mention the health benefits.

    Dawn patrol.

    Splitting time between Kilgore and home. Taking advantage of my downtime and spending it with family. Early morning or evening rides are incredibly beautiful and the exercise doesn't hurt.

    Enroute to fire. U joint failure. Front driveline fell down pointed forward on the road at 65 mph. Gravel berm from new road construction made it hard to pick a spot to get off the road. When I finally did pull to the right, the driveline dug in and bucked me into the air a bit. Picked up pieces of transfer case off the road. Redbull all over the windshield on the inside....

    Near Juntura OR. No cell signal. Good Sam relayed message to Boss back in IdahoFalls. Tow truck to me within 3 hours. Back in Ontario OR by noon. Son from Nampa picked me up and we got another crew pickup, same one we used in NM Belongs to our dozer operator. He also lives in Nampa. Stayed at my sons place and got up early this morning and finished the trip. Got to see granddaughter Winnie too... so cute...

    Very cool!

    Saw a big black bear last evening on our way back out of the hills. Fat and sassy!

    Sitting on a mountain ridge +- 16.5 miles west of Yreka today.... surrounded by bear shit.

    It is exceptionally beautiful here. Strange how a fire can be so destructive and simultaneously so beautiful at times. I've pondered about this many an occasion. A fire is not malicious, unless deliberately set by asswipes.

    Also, the forests I have been around in N California seem overgrown and somewhat sick. Not sure sick is the right word and am at a loss to find the right adjective to describe what I observe. The lack of rains over the last few years isn't helping.

    Sad news... https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...-fire-lookout/

    It doesn't take long to realize things are not well in California. I spent a good bit of time this summer in Lake/Humboldt/Mendocino county. The further you got from the coast, the sicker it seemed.

    I stayed on a property in Cobb that had been cleaned and is maintained for fire safety. They use all the timber removed from the property to fire the kiln. Proof of concept a few years back, fire line stopped a few feet short of structures.

    Looks awesome, and who doesn't like a bit of peace of mind. Knowing what I now know, I couldn't live here in the woods without prepping for fire. Most don't. Shit... on days that the wind blows hard during a fire, anything can happen. Luck of the draw. I have seen homes that should not have burned, but did anyway. Then there are those places that by any measure should have, and they didn't.

    Have driven extensively along the Klamath River where the fire ravaged the community. Holy shit...

    Home from the fires again. Trip home was leisurely and enjoyable. Left Yreka around noon on August 15, spent the night camped in one of the best places to watch the Milky Way and shooting stars blaze across the night sky.

    East of Burns Oregon. Slept out under the stars. 74f was the low. Nice.

    .....go out and make this season the best season of your life. Ski that line, take that trip, slide that rail, make that leap, live for the moment, and make memories with friends that’ll last a lifetime, because as a great man once said, “If you don’t do it this year, you’ll be one year older when you do.”
