I did Frenchman/Sunrise Mountain on Sunday by myself, from the LDS Temple side. This hike is on loose limestone most of the way with a lot of trash. The parking lot was barricaded off, probably because of numerous vehicle break-ins.

Today I climbed Hamblin Peak, earning my 43rd card, the 3 of diamonds. That is a section of Lake Mead behind me I just kayaked a week ago.

Ace2 asked a challenging question in my forum. What is the average number of rolls required to win the All side bet in craps? See the "easy math puzzles" thread for discussion about it, not that it is an "easy" question.

I'm proud to say I climbed Mescalito Peak today, via the challenging "direct route." This earned me my 44th card -- the 9 of diamonds.

I'm proud to say I did Windy Peak by myself on Sunday. I attempted to lead this trip on Feb. 5, but took a wrong turn, and we ended up getting cliffed-out and had to turn back. Since, then I've felt terrible about it and wanted to return to the scene to do it properly.

I just learned this famous line from Pulp Fiction was largely made up. I don't have the characters to get into it, but check Ezekiel 25:14-17 and see for yourself. biblegateway.com/passage/?searc…

I've been working hard on a page on Magic of the Nile. This is a game that sometimes offers a player advantage, according the state it was left in after the last bet. If you are tired of losing at slots and want to beat them, then learning games like this is the way to go.
