Me too. I’ll set up a Zoom meeting. 😄

@Terrierman can we get an amendment to the rules to forbid stuff that’s just annoying? I know this will be tough to police so we’ll need a Commission. I’ll be Commissioner if nobody else steps up. Thanks.

Check the forum hierarchy though. There are a lot more topics to talk about than fishing. Which I think is a good thing in general. If it was just fishing it would have died years ago.

@TerriermanCan we get an amendment to the rules forbidding griping about the rules please? 🤪

Colorado pics had me going through some of my own. RMNP near Rainbow Curve:

If that's all your e-wife says you're doing better than me

I think we've got us a rule violation!!

12,200th reply here. Dang. We need a retired guy to catalog this thing 😄 Steak with rosemary/butter, mushrooms, beans from garden, mushrooms, cottage cheese and cherry maters. And, everybody loves steak night!

^^ I love stuff like that! We had a guy in KC named Scott Tucker who kinda pioneered the online payday loan thing. When the heat came, he then pioneered moving the companies to tribal ownership. A bunch of locals got in on it, including some folks who all belonged to the same Catholic parish, and when it blew up a bunch went to jail. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Tucker_(businessman)

For us, the basil in a smallish pot we used wasn't really worth it. Thinking it may grow a *leetle* better in the bed we put in four plants. They're huge and it's only July I may pull 1 or 2 of them yet this year. Here's what we've got: sage, dill, English thyme, French thyme, Greek oregano, chives, Italian parsley, marjoram. Going to be interesting to see how stuff finishes out the summer and overwinters. I'm sure there will be pruning, digging, changing things up as we learn.

Funny -- I've had a few Black Krims (which I started doing again after your success with them) but no Cherokee Purple yet this year. Tons of green fruit on everything but they're kinda stalled out. Getting some Septoria, so I need to get on it. Getting some banana peppers and will pickle them soon. Bells, Jimmy Nardello, cherries are coming along slowly. Had two decent bells turning, then something came in and ate them over the course of a couple nights. Looks like it was a mouse based on a couple Mickeynuggets on the inside of one of the peppers. Why poop in your food??? First round of bush beans are finishing up, second round started. Have some beets, carrots, chard. We did something different this year: we devoted most of an 8x4 bed to herbs. We used to do a just a few in pots before. Got all kinds of stuff going on in there and we're learning what to do better next time. Basil is going nuts and shading out rosemary, thyme, marjoram. Based on $2.99 for about 8 leaves at the grocery store, we've got about $10,000 work of basil We'll prune it back. Herb is our favorite part of the garden to just look at. So much going on in there. And, we're using it too.

That's what I was wondering too. I just checked. Their 6/30 results aren't posted yet, but at March 31 they had $60 million in cash and another $383 million in US treasury securities they could turn into cash with a phone call. How much are you trying to do your early withdrawal for, if you don't mind me asking? PM response is ok.

Something’s not right. You can file a complaint with their regulator. This will get Academy’s attention: https://appsec.helpwithmybank.gov/olcc_form/

I have more meat puns running through my head, but I'd better stop

Yep! Pure bred and corn fed!

I gotta go with frozen, but I'll take canned in a pinch. I've got my corn buyer up in IA right now surveying things. If our stringent quality requirements are met, she'll make a buy and deliver a load to me Sunday

Mushroom, tomatoes and whole milk mozzarella.

The Cadillac of worms!

BBLM! And, that's as close to a political post as you'll get from me

Finally! https://www.kctv5.com/news/local_news/worries-over-racism-waterways-inspire-push-to-rename-fish/article_8010fcbc-9abd-5911-8d67-c441c7ebd7f6.html?fbclid=IwAR2srmO2UuPlBk4vJOXsBwMGiDajq5xRMBqDW4vjwDB7nHxcGtBsqyP4oYE

Kip had the alter-ego Gregor from Germany, so I cooked up Danielle from France. She was supposedly a dancer from Branson who wanted to learn to fish. It got weird fast. She was short lived.

What is this—some kind of peas offering?? Too late! 😄

Wee hoo!

Wow, thanks for that! Northern NM is pretty special. Beautiful country, desert and skiing within an hour’s drive. Mountains, snowmelt and trout. Sure, we missed some stuff along the way. There were some pretty long drives just to get to our destinations, so side trips weren’t always possible for these old folks. We’re pretty happy with what we did fit in though. Yes, KS is vast and I can’t help but think about the folks that toughed it out homesteading out there or just crossing it. Kinda cool that you can find shark’s teeth in the chalk bluffs in the area around Castle Rock.
