Tried some more tree cutting, one wus gonna hit the house, but I thought it would be just the little top stuf and not hurt nuttin. So I cut it. Top had enough drag against the house to make the heavy bottom part swing towards the house, but luckily it hit the ground and stopped before it could slam into the siding. Dint expect that. Wouldn't have been an issue cutting it near the ground, but was a fork 9 or 10 feet up, plenty of room for the bottom to swing. I gotta remember that... About an hour of tree butchering and I developed an intense energy deficit that'll probably require at least a couple hours of ice tea and air conditioning. Or a beer or two and air conditioning. Mebbe a movie. Nap... This retirement can be tough.

Oh crap, front door just closed, the kid escaped. Hope I don't hafta go out there after him. Maybe if I wait a minute, he'll come back.

Nope.

Oh hell, better check on him.

Whew, he came back in before I went downstairs. Think I'll go down and get a beer anyway.

Hope you can get some good sleep KR, that always seems to help when I ain't feeling good.

My billboard would say - LEAVE YOUR KID IN THE BACK OF YOUR CAR, WE'LL LEAVE A BULLET IN THE BACK OF YOUR SKULL,

Eh, darwins theory aside I like the billboard.

Lived in AZ 12 years, can't say I liked living there, heat like that is just miserable to me. But for a cool time of year tour, AZ is awesome. Be way out of your way, but the most challenging road I've been on there is the dirt portion of the Apache Trail west of Phoenix. Would be about all first gear on a Harley (most vehicles), and if they ever pave it, it'll still be mostly first gear. Might kiss your air cooled Harley engine goodbye on a 110+ day...
Are you talking about the road from Tortilla flats to Roosevelt Damn? If so there was no was I was going to ride my 900lbs bike through there. Did do it in the truck a number of times. ONe of the coolest times that I did that, was when a couple of fighter jets came screaming down the canyon. My buddy (who I was taking through there) still talks about it.





Roosevelt damn
