Bozeman Hot Spring, Drive Home, Unpacking, Trailer Shit Show, PDC, Fire, Grilling - Friday

in voilk •  last month

    I slept like crap Thursday night and was awake early yesterday morning. It felt like I never went to sleep and I was constantly awake. Eventually we all got up, packed, then on the road to the west side of Bozeman to the hot springs.

    We got to experience the new building which just opened since we were there the week before. This time there was no snow so we were outside mostly. The outer pools are really nice and quite large compared to the indoor.

    We were out and leaving the place around 10am. The new building is really nice the new locker rooms are super nice with free lockers.

    Soon we were headed west across Montana and the various mountain passes.

    Homestake pass is the continental divide just to the east of Butte.

    Before too long we were stopping for gas in Missoula which is the last stop before home.

    From Missoula on to Spokane Valley I had that white truck in front of me hauling ass that I was able to follow along with. This was the last major pass at the Idaho Montana border and also put us back into our time zone.

    We made it through the city and home just before all the schools let out so missed a good bit of the traffic, though still ran into it in Peone. Got home before 3pm and got the truck emptied out first thing.

    Then I got the topped off and back onto the old truck for storage.

    I had hooked up the trailer and then tried to swap the tires but I ended up breaking a ratchet, my breaker bar, and a 3/8-1/2 coupler because the fucking bolts were welded on. In my frustration trying to hammer a slightly too large socket of a lug I hit the valve stem and killed it. Really really maddening. I eventually managed to get the bolts all off and the tires are in the truck to go to get new ones put on.

    Got the Blackstone partially setup. It is about in its location but I have more work to do to get it fully setup.

    The US darts masters is going on in NYC and we watched the first round in the evening. It was a routing by the PDC players.

    Nicely all 4 of my books were waiting for me when we got home and I really like the ALU one already. The Futhark is just the new version of the original I have.

    I got a fire going in the pit a good bit later than normal.

    Then grilled steaks for dinner.

    The last match of the night was Smith against Smith and the Canadian won in solid fashion. First time he has beaten Michael.

    Got out to soak after a whole shit ton of foam rolling and thera cane on my back and shoulders. I then hurt myself with the thera cane more while soaking and when I got out had given myself a rather hard chill from the toxin release. It took me a while to get warm in bed and it took me a while to fall asleep, which then I slept fitfully all night.

    And here I am awake at my normal 5am time and I have been out to find that the coop door was not closing all the way at night so the shit head birds are all out as soon as the light broke. I kicked the door shut and will see in an hour if it opens normally. I have a slew of roosters that need to die for sure!

    I have soo much shit to do to catch up from the time gone. My list is over 30 deep right now and I am adding more. I expect it to be over 50 deep here within the hour. I hope to catch the darts today on tv between the vast number of tasks I have to do, and UFC 302 is on but I only want to watch the 2 final matches later tonight.
