Here in Missouri I know all about problems with ticks. I usually remove 5 or 6 a day after my walks in the woods. Both my dogs have been treated for tick related illness and I spent two years without being able to eat red meat due to Alpha gal syndrome. Just got back from a quick 4 miler and...

Really sorry to hear about your heart problems Jerry. You would think that a vegan who gets as much cardio as you would be in excellent health. Truly hope it's not too serious and won't keep you from doing everything you enjoy.

I have the 7.3 in my '21 Tremor. Generally get 12.2 in mixed driving but I did touch 15 on a 260 mile highway drive where I kept my foot out of it. For a truck that weighs 7100lbs. and is shaped like a brick I can live with 12.

Good on you for cleaning up after people too lazy to clean up after themselves. It's just a shame that you have too. People have no respect for the environment. By the way. How's your knee treating you. It must be feeling better now that you're walking more.

I really envy your life and appreciate that you share it with us. Hoping that I will get to go to some of the places that you've shared but for now life gets in the way.

Amazing that you could do that climb with the dogs. You must have really good cardio for an old guy with an artificial hip. Thanks again for taking us along as this is one of my favorite places yet.

Jerry, you and I would get along famously in meet space. Love the report.

Another great season of hiking in beautiful places. As always, thanks for taking us along. I'm 58 and downhills also cause my knees to ache. It's the price you pay for an active life. Do the dogs go stir crazy back at the cabin or do they easily slip into life on the couch?

Some of your best pictures yet. I envy your wandering spirit.

Stunning pictures of a beautiful place. Thanks again for taking us along. You keep giving me places I have to visit.

Beautiful photos. What a great area to spend some time. Very jealous of you and the kids.

You and your friends are certainly living the good life. Thanks for taking us along and giving me ideas for places to take my furry family.

Jerry, thanks for taking the time for the detailed reply. I've known two people who lost dogs due to rattlesnake bites so I'm always overly cautious.

Great pictures Jerry. I know it's probably too cold now, but with all the time you spend in the desert have you ever had problems with the dogs coming across rattlesnakes?

I always give my dogs just a little extra love after seeing post like yours. I think we were very lucky to have found each other. Thank you for doing your best to make those dogs day a little better.
