Took the family up to mammoth, first time we’ve gone in summer. Lots to do there! Apparently we happened to go in the middle of “afternoon rainstorm week.”

We saw Devil’s Postpile and hiked to Rainbow Falls.

We explored the Lakes Basin above town and had a bear walk right up alongside us.

Drove up to June Lake and pretended to fish.

Drove up to East entrance of Yosemite and swam in Tenaya Lake. Temps were perfect low 70s, meanwhile 4500 ft lower in Yosemite Valley the high was 96🤮
As we left we got a few minutes of pea sized hail! Didn’t get a pic in time though..

And in town we saw a guy hauling a pretty well built crawler..

Took her to the self-serve car wash, then the gym and later today out for a date! Little Ruby 2-door was feeling neglected as I hadn't driven her since picking up my TRX...Love both very different rigs and promise she won't be neglected again :)

More fishing on Delaware river (Sucker and Pumpkinseed)
Getting whatever fishing time I can before I start a new Job in Atlanta (which I have never been). Looks like I can wear shorts pretty much the entire year.

Nice sucker! Beautiful colors.
There are lots of little lakes around Atlanta that you can fish. And you can definitely wear shorts year round :)
Heads up on that Atlanta traffic though. Oof.

A funny thing happened on the way to the grocery store.

Farewell, bumper to bumper warranty. We hardly knew thee (which is probably a good thing.)

Did the boy scout of the day. Jumped a Geo Metro. I'm sure I could have driven over it and not scraped my diff. :D

I didn't realize there were any of those still around. Back in my college days I had Chevy's version of that (Sprint). People laughed at the little 3 cylinder Suzuki engine in there, but I got over 50 mpg in that thing.

In the spirit of

"I'm done modifying my Jeep!"
"No, you're not!"


...I sallied forth to Ace Hardware to purchase a Milwaukee M12 ratchet. The sale promotion reduced the price by $10 and included a free 2Ah battery. This purchase puts me further down the rabbit hole fills a gap in my hand tool inventory.

What did that set you back, if you don't mind me asking?

$150.00, on sale. Regularly $160.00. I remember them being $99.00 when they first appeared on the M12 display shelf, a few years ago. Dummy me for dithering so long...

The free 2Ah battery, normally $65.00, made the ratchet's price a bit easier to bear.

The aforementioned are Ace Hardware prices. They are usually a bit lower on Amazon, where ChiCom clone batteries, etc. are also sold.

I willingly paid a bit more at Ace Hdwe since I'll earn coupons and other rewards based on the amount of the purchase transaction. I've used those coupons when buying 3M Filtrete furnace filters and other pricey consumables, so it all circles back eventually.
