That’s cool. Denim and denim-adjacent stuff is a rabbit hole I haven’t gone down yet. How hard is it to apply? How long will it last? Do you need to break it in after applying?

The entire Ben Folds Five edition of Sessions at West 54th is really really good. It was right after Whatever and Ever Amen came out, so the band was in peak form.

but the 43 year old frame now has stress cracks forming..

Are you talking about the bike or yourself?

Good for you man. Even a day skiing on questionable snow is still a day skiing.

I’m a flatlander getting ready for our family trip out to Keystone next weekend. Probably the only time I’m getting on the mountain this season but never say never. Maybe I’ll sneak out in late February.

My elementary school aged boys are snowboarders and will be on their third trip to Colorado. Really excited to actually get a couple days on the mountain, just the three of us.

I have bought so many Analogue products and yet I am still a 40 something dad who struggles to get excited about any formerly favorite hobby.

TBH, I’m a native Kansan and have only ever heard it called “Ark City.”

No, they got the memo. At least in the US, the Peacock app had every single event broken out into live events, replays and highlights. Or you could watch the gold medal stream and just mainline finals. They did a pretty good job, IMO.

Thanks for posting that.

~~Holy shit, the backend was Wordpress… 💀~~

Edited, mis-read Gideon’s comment. That’s what I get for dog walking and reading at the same time.

Gideon Zhi has some more context on Bluesky. Sounds like the main (only) admin made things… difficult.

I don’t know your life situation OP, but my wife and I have found it very helpful to designate one night of the week as our “weekly meeting.” After the kids go to bed, we spend some time together, catching up on the previous week and talking about next week. We also meal plan and make a grocery list. And both of us usually have a few things written down that we want to discuss, like upcoming trips, major expenses, etc.

It’s really nice to have Thursday nights as a time set aside just for the two of us to focus on each other and all the little things you forget about during the week. YMMV, of course.

 

We’ve been in Omaha for about two years and the kids are just getting old enough for car camping. What are your favorite parks for a young family? What’s worth the drive out west? Any other tips?
