Did a search - didn't have anything come up immediately obvious. I've got an 04 TJ. At a point where I can no longer see out of any of the windows - rear sides or the back. I'm thinking of getting one of the frameless replacement tops for it as I can get the whole top with new windows for not a...

I had similar problems with my 04 TJ Rubicon this summer. It was slower and slower on startup, alternator was showing a good output. I'd pull the battery and charge it overnight, the Jeep would start and be fine for a couple days, but it eventually got to where the output on the battery would...

I'll be out toward where he lives this weekend. If I happen to see an FJ parked anywhere I'll wander up and introduce myself and tell him he's missed. :)

So mine isn't really an adventure bike, but I do have many adventures riding it. I rode out east of Austin today - the weather was less than beautiful, but I enjoyed the ride. The wildflowers are really starting to come in and it's going to be really, really beautiful very soon. Anyway, here's a...

Hey Lynn. I'm still kicking. Plateaued for awhile with losing weight - still been losing inches though. Been exercising quite a bit so I guess I'm losing fat and gaining muscle mass? I'm hovering around 220-230 lost right now. I've been either walking 3-3 1/2 miles, riding my bicycle 5-7 miles...

Was out in your neck of the woods a couple weeks ago on my motorcycle. Love the ride out through Blanco and that area. Maybe I'll see you one of these days. It would be nice to say hello and check out your rig. Definitely looking forward to reading the rest of your story. It's been a long time...

This was my campsite near Platoro, CO this summer. I lived here nicely for a week.

We've got a local brewer here that I've been enjoying. Recently I tried their Fuego - a jalapeno pilsner. Very refreshing with a great little hit of heat. http://www.texmexbeer.com/ And a nice little motorcycle ride from Austin, in Wimberley is the Wimberley Brewing Company. It's a pizza...

I've been an on and off vegetarian for probably 1/2 of the last 10 years or so. Many of my closest friends over this same period of time are also vegetarians, some are vegans. I am not a vegan, although much of what I eat is vegan. With the exception of occasional fish and very rarely eating...

Veggies are cooking away. 4 different friends invited me to their family celebrations today - I'm probably going to swing by 2 of them. Life is good and it's great to have these reminders of all we can be thankful for.

I'm solo for Thanksgiving this year, but that doesn't mean I have to settle for a subpar meal. I've got a Tofurkey Roast to start with. These things are surprisingly delicious. I'm not a fan of turkey anyway, so I actually like this pretend turkey stuffed with a wild rice mixture much better...

I bought my kit for my TJ from Wil at Sierra Expeditions (a forum sponsor). We talked about what my needs would be and he came in with a very fair price. Since then I've bought a few other things from them and they have always provided outstanding customer service. You might give them a call and...

One of those dishes that looks absolutely horrible, but I expect is delicious. Thanks for posting. I wouldn't eat it due to the beef, but definitely might cook it for the family.

We used one of the pie cookers to make a s'more type thing while camping in Colorado this year. We buttered a couple slices of bread, put a chocolate bar on one, put in a few marshmallows and stuck the thing in the fire. Once again, one would be well advised to allow some cooling before eating...

My Jeep ('04 TJ Rubicon) is Bob. Bob the Jeep. My motorcycle is Bob. Bob the Motorcycle. My mountain bike is Bob. Bob the Bike. Same first and middle names, different last name. Doesn't matter. Just like my cats, they ignore me, too. Their name is Bob also - but they were already named when I...

Thirded on the negativity and sniping. Seconded on the commando. I had a friend in high school that had one that was bone stock and in pristine condition. Loved it!

I pretty much did the above. I bought a maglight tube mounting kit, screwed it to an old license plate and then ziptied my new plate to it. Easy to put on and take off. I have heard of a few guys using a small cable lock for security. Mine's been on the Jeep for about 4 years now and hasn't...

I like it. Not so sure about the green, but hey, it's not my ride. Sometime in the next few years (hopefully later rather than sooner), I'm going to be petless as my current 2 cats are elderly. I've been trying to decide if it will ever be possible to get a kitten and train it to ride in one...

I picked up some pre-crusted tilapia from the "Reduced" section of the grocery store yesterday. Sell by date was still 2 days away. Got two big fillets for, I think, $2.50 or so. Put a little olive oil on the bottom and top of my George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine (henceforth...
