FX Airguns Verminator MKII Extreme
“Kid, you’ll shoot your eye out.” That line was from the famous Christmas Story movie and specifically the Red Rider BB Gun. Oh how things have evolved. The FX Airguns Verminator MKII Extreme isn’t your kids pellet gun. This awesome pellet gun comes with a FX scope and crossbow optic on quick change mounts (no […]
Motoped = Part Mountain Bike / Part Motocross
I guess I am not the only one lusting over this type of a mountain bike/motocross combination. This Motoped, DIY bike kit, is on KickStarter and has blown past its funding goal. The cool part about the Motoped idea is that each builder (aka you) can take a different route. You can upgrade the wheels, […]
Jersey Shore, Gettysburg, Philadelphia, Virginia, And South Carolina
Another procrastinators post with a quick 5 state update… After NY we downgraded to the Jersey Shore. The MTV show “Jersey Shore” did a good job polishing that turd. It was pretty run down and had clientele to match. We had one of the “nicer” hotels in the area. Other people seemed to know this […]
Remote Control Mop
Can’t get your kids to help out with chores around the house? Think out side the box a bit and get them a remote controlled mop. Chances are this won’t work too good as a mop… but it sure will be fun trying. What will they think of next?
New Hampshire And The Cog Railway At Mt. Washington
After losing our shirts in PA we pointed the car towards Maine and drove through Vermont and New Hampshire. Pictures won’t do justice to the colors of the trees as they turn. Simply amazing scenery. On this leg of the trip we had a constant drizzly rain which made it even tougher to get good […]
GoPro Hero3+
Let me start off by saying that I am a bit of a GoPro power user. We are about 30 days deep on our US road trip and have 4 GoPro Hero cameras (two Hero2 and two Hero3) in the car at all times. We even have one that rides shotgun on our DJI Phantom […]
Shoshone Lodge Near Yellowstone Park
Arrived at the East entrance of Yellowstone Park and made Shoshone Lodge our home for two days. Hiked scared for 6 miles in grizzly bear territory. We each held on to a can of bear spray and looked backwards anytime we stepped on a twig. There were grizzly bear (and black bear) tracks everywhere and […]
Officer Montowski and Officer Potter… Out Of Line Homeland Security CBP Employees
So, after having a great time in Canada we headed back to Spokane Washington to drop off little Russ at the airport. He couldn’t take anymore of our antics. On the way back he spotted a skate park about 2 minutes from the US/Canada border… of course he had to try it out. That was […]
Road Trip Update… Up To The Canada Border…
We haven’t posted in quite a while as we have been having too much fun or in areas without internet. Last time we posted anything was 6 days ago while in Portland, Oregon. We rafted on the Deschutes River… good times. In Seattle we ate at the 5 Point Cafe (see menu pic with funny […]
Day 2 Of The Road Trip
The 2nd Day of the road trip started off in Grants Pass, OR where we took the car to the shop for a non-working heater. The shop we took it to was super amazing. Props to Kelly’s Automotive! If you are in the area and have car troubles look them up. This is a bit […]
