A trick to make eggs not stick is to heat the pan until water drops bead up like little bbs and roll around for a few seconds , if its too cold it just bubbles and evaporates, if its too hot it splatters and evaporates quickly you want the little balls to roll around, that is perfect and nothing will stick after adding your oil first of course. Gee is my preferred lube for eggs. It works like magic on aluminum and stainless steel but I'm pretty sure it works on cast iron as well. Try it and see with one egg first.

Big Bend area is a great place to visit. I was there about two years ago and stayed at Big Bend Ranch State Park. I had a great little boondocking spot that backed up to the Rio Grand. I'm not sure if you've explored Big Bend Ranch before but there are a few nice hikes. Closed Canyon Trail stands out in my memory as a nice little hike in a slot canyon. Enjoy the warmth and Via Terlingua.

The secret to a clean windshield is, spray with dish detergent solution, scrub with NON-ABRASIVE plastic scrubber if there are stuck on bugs etc,then squeegee, then polish with newspaper. NON-ABRASIVE. NOT SCOTCH BRITTE WHICH WILL PERMANENTLY SCRATCH THE HELL OUT OF IT. Looks like a beautiful area there, especially the canyon. Spots on glass are often minerals left by water when I'd dries. Detergent won't phase it. Vinegar will. It's mildly acidic which devolves mineral deposits. Spadefoot toads can bury themselves in mud, which hardens, for months. Then when rains come, they emerge, mate then their eggs turned tadpoles mature to repeat the process. One species is the spade foot frog. My college biology professor told of him and his colleagues getting up in the middle of the night and venturing into the Mojave desert to witness the emergence of these toads. It only happens rarely.

Hi guys ! Kevin from Virginia here. Hey ! F. Y.I , If you want to try having a new key cut for your Hummer back home. That should fix your difficult ignition switch problem. GM wants to change out the steering column section.. , nope…… just feel how sharp your key is….. It’s a bit worn down and bit whaler than your other keys. The parasitic battery drain on the hummer is probably quite simple. Glove box light on ? Alarm systems are big culprits. All the best. You guys seem so darn friendly….
