This exactly, except Ibuse a DeWalt. I have found that the brand power tool used has little effect on the taste and extraction, however.

I live pretty close to your area and just bought my first bag of whole bean coffee this week (previously just got pre-ground packages from the grocery). Most of the coffee shops in my area (eTown) use Senergos as their roaster, so that’s what we got to start. Excited to try some other stuff regionally.

Staining red oak for a slat wall around our fireplace. Hope to get it installed this week.

I don’t see how he could have survived. But I hope he did for his sake.

We live in a pretty rural area and take a lot of trips on it. We’ve even camped in the back with the seats down. It’s also the first SUV we’ve owned and just love the versatility of it. But that part is true of any SUV.

I absolutely love our 2013 Toyota Highlander Limited. Have a roof rack on it and it’s fantastic at what it does. Just got back from a trip to town with two little ones and a load of lumber on the roof. It’s understated styling is just so pleasing to look at and it’s really comfortable inside with an amazing sound system. Just all around a very enjoyable (albeit boring) car to own.

Toyota Land Cruiser

Agreed. And believe me you, they’ll find a way to screw us all over if we give them half a chance.

I’d say the Ford (I have a Focus ST) but the lotus would probably have it beat.

Fantastic article! I used to love loitering as a kid/young adult. I should do more of it.

That comment sounds a little bigoted.

So, dumb question but what is exploding-heads? Are they actual Nazis or like far-right wackos and MAGA nuts?

My 2013 Toyota Highlander has a similar system.

Yesterday I swung by someone’s house for something and she was out in the treehouse reading or writing something. No social media. Didn’t see a phone. Just enjoying the moment. Best quote from Secret Life of Walter Mitty, “Beautiful things don’t ask for attention”. The moment when the world famous photographer sees the elusive snow leopard he’s been chasing and rather than take the photo he just sits there and breathes in that moment. Not even doing what he came to do just so he gets to fully experience it. That’s slow living. It’s inherently anti-social media

Yeah, basically this. That’s the beauty of it.

Our new patio furniture and spending time relaxing outside on it.

Some good advice and sorta what I didn’t want to hear lol. My wife and I do have a night every week when family watches the kids and we go on a date or just spend time together. I think I just have to come to terms with the fact that the house will always need cleaned and that there will always be a list of maintenance things that need done. I guess my issue is that I often need a clean house and mind in order to have peace. So maybe I need to work on my mentality with those things to have peace even with things that need done and a messy house.

I setup bookstack at my last job and personally loved it. But yeah, takes a lot to get everyone on board with something like that. I liked that you could export stuff out of it easily too. Bridges the gap if you need to email documentation.
