Former midwesterner here. Don't think of them at all like whitetails, different species with different behavior patterns. In 3rd season they will be looking for the ladies. Find the does and the bucks won't be far away. With whitetails you find a likely spot and wait for them to come by...
When I read the first posts on this thread I immediately thought of mentioning the Meateater Adobado shank recipe, that one is fantastic. Glad to see others beat me to it! If you like spicy food like I do, don't change a thing.
Here is another great one from Hank Shaw...
I got a late start this year. Due to moving into a new house in early March, I couldn't start seedlings until a couple weeks after I moved in and also had to build the planter bed. Thankfully my Dad started some tomatoes early for me which explains the tall ones. Everything else is lagging...
No changing your mind here. They're the best band of the 90s grunge era. Nirvana had all the hype, as did Pearl Jam. Soundgarden was good. But no one had the depth of AIC. They're still putting out great stuff today.
I'm stoked that she's interested now. Given where she was at a couple years ago, I thought she was never going to be into it. I don't push my kids into any certain activity, just expose them to different hobbies and help guide them along in whatever they take interest in. I think hearing...
My kids (10,7,5) have been in the category of liking it but not enthused by it. We have an interesting dynamic right now that my 10 year old daughter is getting into it, 7 year old daughter is somewhere in the middle, and my 5 year old son gets discouraged easily and wants to quit.
We...
"plain good" is not a high enough evaluation. ;) As a former amateur drummer, Danny Carey rocked the world of drums into the stratosphere. That album is a masterpiece of drumming and time signature changes. Happy listening my friend!
I also think Jerry has a great voice, and if you like it you will love the new stuff. He sings a lot more than he used to, and sounds great. I agree about the wisdom of growing older, and that's a big part of why I like their new stuff. Great lyrics about dealing with life's lessons. I think...
I'd definitely recommend checking out the newer AIC stuff. Just don't expect it to be quite the same. Less about drugs and being depressed, more about the wisdom of being older and having experienced life. Lots of people get hung up on "but it's not Layne". It's not, but they had to move on...
Been cycling pretty regularly between Tool: Fear Inoculum and Alice in Chains: Rainier Fog lately. Have to say that after losing Layne Staley, AIC has put out three fantastic albums which I didn't think they could do. Shows how big of a part Jerry Cantrell always played in their songwriting...
I'm originally from MN, moved before Surly started up. So glad they distribute to CO now. Was introduced to Furious in 2013 while on a MN deer hunt. After that I would hoard Surly when I'd make my biannual turkey and deer hunting trips in NE and IL, when they only distributed out to NE. I...
Honestly I voted Sitka because I can try them on at stores and know if it fits....and I've been happy with the performance so I don't see the need to search further.
So many good breweries in CO, it's hard to even nail down the best brewery, let alone a best beer.
Best Brewery - WeldWerks, their best beer (IMHO) is Extra DDH Juicy Bits
Honorable Mention for breweries:
New Image
Crooked Stave
Dry Dock
Wiley Roots
Eddyline
I honestly cant' keep track...
Sours are awesome summer beers. One of my favorite sours I've ever run across is Kiwicumber Jalapeno Sour by New Image Brewing. Thought it sounded ridiculous, so I bought a single to try. Dang, it was good. Next time back to the store I bought the last two four packs they had. I still have...
People started getting hit with deer charges yesterday, shortly after noon. I got the unsuccessful email for deer this morning. I am hoping that elk will happen today. Not that it matters for me, I won't draw the hybrid tag I put in for, but I'd like to at least see the list for the secondary...
