I grew up in a small town near four corners and as a pre-teen and teen during the summers I probably spent every 3rd night outdoors, hiking to some new place in the backcountry. I didn't have money and sure didn't have "gear&

I might misunderstand, but can't you just ask for the reference? I've also been using (Gemini) a lot to basically replace my search engine, but I always tell it to give me a reference. I've had pretty good results with this

I've done a decent amount of remodel work and new builds. The workflow you've described rarely plays out in real jobs. This combo bit looks particularly useful for building things like decks.

I keep telling everyone that the only reason I'm paid well to do "smart person stuff" is not because I'm smart, but because I've steadily watched everyone around me get more stupid over my life as a result of turnin

My parents taught me to ride by pushing the bike down a small hill with me on it! Lol Same thing though. I was ruding the bike like a boss pretty quickly.
