    Great Deal On GSI Pressure Cooker

    Nice video presentation. Items shown are many I use at home, so kudos for that. The pressure cooker idea is intriguing, as the lower fuel consumption makes sense on those more extended back country or large gatherings and it is not practical to lug a 20 pound propane tank with you. I would...

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Ghost train, Loved it. Years ago we did the steam train out to the old Kennacott copper mine, and then the 'high-line' out north towards McGill NV. At the time they still had a little over a mile to restore the tracks all the way to the old station in McGill. They had had plans to restore the...
