Straight from the tap in Tacoma and it works just fine.

Throw 2 quarts of cherry tomatoes, some thyme, 4 smashed garlic cloves, a diced shallot, 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar, some olive oil, and S&P into an oven safe container and roast at 375 for about 75 minutes uncovered. You'll get a delicious tomato jam you can use as a condiments, pasta sauce...

While sitting and having lunch on our Grand Valley hike the other day, this doe casually walked between me and my hiking partner, who was only 30 feet away. They must encounter enough humans to recognize that we are no threat inside park boundaries

Hiking in the Olympics the other day and had a ball watching these guys chasing grasshopper in the alpine. They did not care that I walked with 5 feet of them on the trail. Saw about 20 on the day.

That happened to me a couple years ago, traps baited with ripening tomatoes placed along fencelines and space breaks near the tomatoes took care of it. I got three of the bastards on less than a week that way and no more tomato thievery

If you find the right chuck roast, you can pull a check eye and a denver out of the same one! I try to find a good one whenever they are on sale, best value steak you can get anymore

I saved some chuck eye from the chuck roast I broke down for stir fry the other night and paired it with today's sourdough bread, sweet baby rays, and kerrygold Cheddar to make a damn tasty sandwich for lunch

Beef and broccoli (and some other veggies that needed to be used up)

Thanks, I'm looking forward to exploring the streams of PA!
