    Steven Rinella

    Ive always enjoyed his stuff. I prefer the books and podcast over the tv show, but its not bad. I can say I learn something every time I read or listen to him. If you want a good read check out his book American Buffalo. Really good.

    Stage 3 fire restrictions

    Updating this thread too...at least for Apache-Sitgreaves here's a link to the closure maps by district. https://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/cs/newsarchives?ss=110301&navtype=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&cid=FSE_003753&navid=120000000000000&pnavid=null&position=Closures&ttype=newsarchives&pname=Apache-Sitgreaves%20National%20Forests%20-%20Alerts%20amp;%20Notices

    Sometimes it ain't about the money!

    Man that's some good stuff right there. Wow. We gave our kids (11 and 13) a summer project to come up with an idea and build or make it with little help from me or my wife...will see what they come up with. So far it looks like we may get a doggie shade structure out of it.

    Not Closing the Rim?!?!

    Ahh...there's a separate link under "More Closures" that has the individual district info. https://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/cs/newsarchives?ss=110301&navtype=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&cid=FSE_003753&navid=120000000000000&pnavid=null&position=Closures&ttype=newsarchives&pname=Apache-Sitgreaves%20National%20Forests%20-%20Alerts%20amp;%20Notices

    Not Closing the Rim?!?!

    Where did you find the info on the area west and south of Greer to 273? ASNF website updated indicating there are area closures and maps, but the link currently goes to their "Alerts/Notices" page with no maps or info...

    Stage 3 fire restrictions

    So far it looks that way except for state and county land. National forest still open, but theyre supposed to be updating area closures this week.
  9. I think this is same model I killed my first deer with 30 yrs ago shooting slugs. Sweet shooter.

    Mothers Day Gift Ideas...Please share

    Wife says I want the kids to surprise me this year which is very dangerous code...if taken literally I will be in trouble. So this means I help the kids come up with an idea and I pay for it.

    Evap Cooler in Garage?

    My buddy has one that works great until it gets too humid. Keep the doors open as others have said for plenty of ventilation. Good thing with the portable is you can move it to where it blows right on you. My old boss had a permanent cooler installed on his garage that he ran all the time and said he never had issues with rust or mold. I have a portable AC that also does pretty well as long as it's vented well. I've gone through 2 mini splits on my office in about 8 years...decided to go with a much cheaper window AC (at the recommendation of my AC guy who says mini splits are very difficult to work on) and may put one of those through the wall in the garage too. So far very pleased and even quieter than the mini split was.

    Any good tackle shops in tucson?

    Yeah the ace on houghton/Valencia has really expanded both hunting and fishing section. Really nice coues hanging in the corner by the hunting license desk...one of the managers killed it and was state record at the time I believe he said.
  16. Man that takes me back a few years...put a lot of money into Fosgate stuff in my first truck and lots of MDF box building. Good luck with the sale.

    What am I doing with a late archery tag?

    Helped elkhunter1 on this hunt a couple years ago...tough hunt and he ate tag soup. Saw 2 bulls while I was with him despite seeing more while scouting and on trail cam. Water isn’t a bad idea if you can find fresh sign on one of the many tanks.

    RV Fuel Tank Question

    Center usually draws from both. I run mine on one side only then switch...that way I know I have one full and one partial going to empty. Otherwise never know how empty 2 partials are...

    YETI drops NRA

    First thing I thought of when people are asking around, "what is the real difference between RTIC and YETI other than 50% in price?" RTIC could win again by coming out with a pro-shooting statement and even lower prices.

    And a previously unknown wannabe (at least I guess she is since not UofA alum?) from Tucson took second...only her second marathon apparently.
