Well? Which is/are it?

This is interesting. I have two pairs of Altra Timps high tops and one pair of Altra Lone peaks high tops. One pair of the Timps is new. Maybe I'll start wearing them.

Yeah, but do they do dishes and take out the garbage?

@RedRoxx44
I saw that. But all of San Diego's reservoirs are low. I call pumpkin on this pronouncement.

I don't think there are very many actual journalists left.

@chumley
Beats reading the other news.

@RedRoxx44
Same to you! And it's been drizzling off and on in Flagstaff for hours. I'm not sure what the plants and trees think about this spring like weather. My understanding is that some of the plants will get a little confused and start to bud.

@chumley
Yes, and that's great, but I'm just floored by the 100% chance of rain and possible thunderstorms on Christmas Day in Flagstaff. I'm just glad that my going there and coming home are not supposed to be rainy.

Heading for Flag tomorrow to be with family, and...
"I'm dreaming of a wet Christmas..."

After mostly being missed by the fall rain, we got our first snow that stuck, up here in Eagar. We were supposed to get only 1/2 inch, but it looks more like 2 inches out there. Brr. I'm trying to enjoy it. I'm so used to spending my winters in the desert, summers in the mountains. Very spoiled. Had...

@CannondaleKid
Good price, you should be able to get that.

@Jim
Honestly have no idea who you're talking about. Not even the slightest clue. I racked my brain but can't remember anyone fitting that description.

@Jim
I'm just glad I have my Geezer pass.

@outdoor_lover
Truly wish I could be there. Enjoyed visiting with you. Maybe I can get out and hike Flat Top that day, and give you a call from the summit, haha!

@TooOld2Hike_EP Tried liner socks back in the 70s. Too slippery! Doesn't matter what they are made from, if they are made to be slippery, they make my feet slip around inside of the wool socks I put on over them. Not a good feeling AT ALL, and contributed to blisters. I do always switch out my inso...

The Bird-Naming people claim to have the power to change bird names. They are not going to ask us how we feel about it, (let alone the birds.) They don’t care if we've misspent a lifetime trying to learn the names, only to have to start all over. It's a travesty, I tell you, and would be front page ...

I tot I taw a putty tat. Hope the wildflower thing happens. I'll enjoy the photos. Unfortunately, this will be the first winter since 2012-2013 that I am spending away from the desert. I'm intensely missing Yuma and Needles right now. I doubt I will be able to go down there. Watch for cross country ...

That's great, and sounds like sorta scary fun, @Alston_Neal huddled in your cozy RV. I can relate!

I am pretty sure we won't be getting a deluge here in Eagar. I think it's just going to be a bit of rain and a sprinkle of snow over several days.

@tibber
I never heard of it until now, either, but why would I have?

@GrangerGuy Would be fun indeed. March 23 is my birthday, and my first ever rafting trip was a day run on my 50th birthday in 2003. I organized groups several times after that, usually on my birthday. Always wanted to do that multi-day trip but never got around to it. Did plenty of Grand Canyon raf...
