    Icon lost

    The Grateful Dead weren't everyone's cup of tea, but their music and all the subsequent iterations of the band and it's offshoots have been the soundtrack of my life since the bus first came by and I got on in 1983. Bobby's playing and voice, particularly in the past 20 years, only got better...

    Any use the Garmin InReach?

    Elon gets not one cent of my money if I can help it. I'll die on the trail first! Though of course I pay my taxes, so he's getting some of it....against my will.

    Any use the Garmin InReach?

    My wife and I each have one for our own backcountry adventures. She used hers to save a life when a friend went into a diabetic coma up above Harts Pass a few years ago and had to be taken out by helicopter. I posted about that back on the site that will no longer be named. Well worth the peace...

    Affordable places you would actually want to live

    My oldest daughter did the travel nurse thing for quite a while. Pay was fantastic....the travel nurse agency paid for housing and a per diem in addition to the hourly rate, which is quite good. She always tried to get into the backshift or weekend slots when they were available as those paid OT...
